Analysis of Antioxidant Effects of Lycopene and Caffeine in Experimentally Induced Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Rats

Abstract

Background: The aim was to investigate the antioxidant effects of lycopene and caffeine in rats exposed to renal ischemia/reperfusion injury. Materials and Methods: Following right renal nephrectomy, 60 minutes of ischemia followed by 60 minutes of reperfusion were performed in 200-250 gram Wistar albino rats used in the study. 30 minutes before ischemia, lycopene (5 mg/kg), caffeine (50 mg/kg), lycopene (5 mg/kg) + caffeine (50 mg/kg) were administered intraperitoneally to the rats. After the experiment, 4 ml of blood and left kidney were taken from the rats. Tissue malondialdehyde, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and serum creatinine activities were measured biochemically and light microscopy findings were evaluated histologically. Results: When the antioxidant effect of lycopene and caffeine against renal ischemia perfusion injury was compared with the other groups, a significant decrease was found in serum creatinine levels of lycopene. Caffeine was found to be high, but not statistically. malondialdehyde levels were lower in the groups than in the injury group; although glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase were high, no significance was found. When compared with ischemia-reperfusion group, histopathological damage was found to be significantly lower than in the other groups. It was found that lycopene and caffeine reduced apoptosis, tubular dilatation, tubular epithelium degeneration, glomerular shrinkage, desquame epithelium and proteinaceous cast amount significantly. Conclusions: While lycopene has high antioxidant efficiency when compared with caffeine, lycopene and caffeine have protective effect against renal ischemia reperfusion injury.
