Abstract Title:
Geraniol attenuates oxidative stress, bioaccumulation, serological and histopathological changes during aluminum chloride-hepatopancreatic toxicity in male Wistar rats.
Abstract:
Aluminum chloride (AlCl) has different industrial applications including manufacturing paint and water treatment. The present study was designed to evaluate the alleviating effect of geraniol against AlCl-induced hepatopancreatic toxicity. To this end, forty male Wistar rats were divided into control (0.9% NaCl, IP), geraniol (100 mg/kg orally), AlCl(70 mg/kg, IP), and AlCl(70 mg/kg, IP) plus geraniol (100 mg/kg orally) groups and then were treated daily for 28 days. Based on the results, serum cholesterol, triglyceride, as well as liver and pancreas enzymes increased significantly (P
