Oxidative stress induced nephrotoxicity in chronic low dose organophosphates exposure
Introduction: There were significant epidemiological evidences that suggested the association of end-stage renal diseases of unknown aetiology with chronic pesticide exposure. Our previous assessment of renal tissue of Sprague-Dawley rats exposed to chronic low dose OP had found significant microsco...

Introduction: There were significant epidemiological evidences that suggested the association of end-stage renal diseases of unknown aetiology with chronic pesticide exposure. Our previous assessment of renal tissue of Sprague-Dawley rats exposed to chronic low dose OP had found significant microscopic features consistent with renal tubular damage. This study postulated that the renal damage is the consequences of oxidative stress which may lead to cell death through apoptosis. The aims of the current study is to determine the pathways involved in the above microscopic changes.
Materials & Methods: Two groups of males Sprague-Dawley rats of 6 rats each: control group and exposed group (received an alternate day of subcutaneous 18.0 mg/kg BW chlorpyrifos) were sacrificed at 150 days. A small tissue section from the renal cortex was preserved in RNAlater whilst the other half of the renal was preserved in formalin for tissue processing.
