The use of gentamicin (GM) is limited due to its nephrotoxicity mediated by oxidative stress. This study aimed to evaluate the capacity of a flavonoid-rich extract of L. elderflower (SN) to inhibit lipoperoxidation in GM-induced nephrotoxicity. The HPLC analysis of the SN extract recorded high contents of rutin (463.2 ± 0.0 mg mL), epicatechin (9.0 ± 1.1 µg mL), and ferulic (1.5 ± 0.3 µg mL) and caffeic acid (3.6 ± 0.1 µg mL). Thirty-two Wistar male rats were randomized into four groups: a control group (C) (no treatment), GM group (100 mg kg bw day GM), GM+SN group (100 mg kg bw day GM and 1 mL SN extract day), and SN group (1 mL SN extract day). Lipid peroxidation, evaluated by malondialdehyde (MDA), and antioxidant enzymes activity-superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPX)-were recorded in renal tissue after ten days of experimental treatment. The MDA level was significantly higher in the GM group compared to the control group ( < 0.0001), and was significantly reduced by SN in the GM+SN group compared to the GM group ( = 0.021). SN extract failed to improve SOD, CAT, and GPX activity in the GM+SN group compared to the GM group ( > 0.05), and its action was most probably due to the ability of flavonoids (rutin, epicatechin) and ferulic and caffeic acids to inhibit synthesis and neutralize reactive species, to reduce the redox-active iron pool, and to inhibit lipid peroxidation. In this study, we propose an innovative method for counteracting GM nephrotoxicity with a high efficiency and low cost, but with the disadvantage of the multifactorial environmental variability of the content of SN extracts.
由于庆大霉素(GM)通过氧化应激介导的肾毒性,其应用受到限制。本研究旨在评估接骨木花富含类黄酮的提取物(SN)抑制GM诱导的肾毒性中脂质过氧化的能力。SN提取物的高效液相色谱分析显示芦丁(463.2±0.0mg/mL)、表儿茶素(9.0±1.1μg/mL)、阿魏酸(1.5±0.3μg/mL)和咖啡酸(3.6±0.1μg/mL)含量较高。32只Wistar雄性大鼠随机分为四组:对照组(C)(未治疗)、GM组(100mg/kg体重/天GM)、GM+SN组(100mg/kg体重/天GM和1mL SN提取物/天)和SN组(1mL SN提取物/天)。实验处理10天后,记录肾组织中通过丙二醛(MDA)评估的脂质过氧化以及抗氧化酶超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GPX)的活性。与对照组相比,GM组的MDA水平显著更高(P<0.0001),与GM组相比,GM+SN组中的SN显著降低了MDA水平(P = 0.021)。与GM组相比,GM+SN组中SN提取物未能提高SOD、CAT和GPX活性(P>0.05),其作用很可能归因于类黄酮(芦丁、表儿茶素)以及阿魏酸和咖啡酸抑制合成和中和活性物质、减少氧化还原活性铁池以及抑制脂质过氧化的能力。在本研究中,我们提出了一种高效低成本对抗GM肾毒性的创新方法,但存在SN提取物含量存在多因素环境变异性的缺点。
