The protective role of ferulic acid on sepsis-induced oxidative damage in Wistar albino rats
Highlights • The effects of ferulic acid (FA) on sepsis-induced oxidative damage in thelymphocytes, liver and kidney cells of Wistar albino rats were investigated. • The DNA damage was found to be significantly higher in the sepsis-induced rats ( p < 0.05). • The Comet parameters were significant...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • The effects of ferulic acid (FA) on sepsis-induced oxidative damage in thelymphocytes, liver and kidney cells of Wistar albino rats were investigated. • The DNA damage was found to be significantly higher in the sepsis-induced rats ( p < 0.05). • The Comet parameters were significantly decreased in the FA-treated sepsis-induced group when compared with the sepsis-induced group. • FA treatment also decreased the malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities and increased the glutathione (GSH) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities in the sepsis-induced rats. |
