| Abstract | Platycodin D (PD) is well known as a potent triterpenoid saponin having various pharmacological activities isolated from the root of Platycodon grandiflorum (Jacq.) A. DC. (Campanulaceae). We aimed to evaluate protective effect of PD on cisplatin (CDDP)-induced nephrotoxicity. Male ICR mice were allocated into five groups as follows: Negative control, CDDP alone and CDDP with PD (0.1, 1 and 5 mg/kg) treated group. PD was given for three consecutive days before CDDP injection. Increased blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (CRE) levels in CDDP alone treated mice were decreased to normal range by pretreatment with PD. It also decreased nitric oxide (NO) and lipid peroxidation with increased antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in PD pretreated mice. In histopathological examination, pretreatment with PD showed ameliorated renal injury such as intraluminal cast formation and epithelial desquamation. Furthermore, over-expression of nuclear factor-kappa B p65 and apoptotic cells were suppressed by PD pretreatment. Taken together, PD pretreatment might be beneficial to CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
