摘要
Cyclophosphamide (CP) is widely used in chemotherapy to treat various types of cancer. However, it is toxic to the liver and other organs. Rosmarinic acid (RA) possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cytoprotective properties. This study investigated the protective effects of RA against CP-induced liver injury in mice. Mice were treated with RA (25, 50, and 100 mg/kg) for 15 days and followed by a single injection of CP on day 16th. CP injection resulted in an elevation in serum AST, ALT, and ALP, along with multiple histopathological alterations in the liver. CP also induced increased levels of MDA and NO, associated with declined GSH, SOD and CAT. RA pretreatment prevented liver injury, alleviated the enhanced levels of MDA and NO, and restored antioxidants defenses, hence avoiding the oxidative injury in the liver. Moreover, RA pretreatment attenuated NF-kappa B p65 and proinflammatory cytokines levels. Liver of CP-injected mice also showed a decrease in Bcl2, accompanied with elevated BAX and caspase-3 expression, an effect that RA pretreatment alleviated. In addition, pretreatment of CP-administrated mice with RA restored the Nrf2 expression in the liver. Taken together, this study suggests a potential application value of RA in preventing CP hepatotoxicity and sheds light on the possible mechanism.Graphical abstractSchematic diagram summarizing the hepatoprotective role of RA in a mouse model of CP hepatotoxicity. RA restored cellular redox status, suppressed inflammatory response, mitigated apoptosis, and upregulated Nrf2 pathway in the liver of CP-injected mice. CP cyclophosphamide, RA rosmarinic acid
