We investigated the protective effects of carnosine on nickel-induced oxidative stress in kidney of rats. Animals received NiSO<jats:sub>4<\/jats:sub> (20 mg\u00b7kg<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\u00b7day<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup> intragastrically) and (or) carnosine (10 mg\u00b7kg<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\u00b7day<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup> intragastrically) for 21 days and then were evaluated for biochemical, molecular, and histopathological alterations. Nickel caused an increase in renal levels of malondialdehyde and a decrease in reduced glutathione, catalase, and superoxide dismutase levels and total antioxidant capacity. Carnosine prevented the prooxidant and antioxidant imbalance induced by nickel. Nickel-treated rats showed an increase in serum creatinine, urea, and uric acid with a concomitant decrease in albumin. Nickel markedly accumulated in kidney of exposed rats, but its concentration was effectively reduced by carnosine treatment. Carnosine corrected the biochemical abnormalities and the elevated renal TNF-\u03b1 and IL-6 levels in the nickel-treated group. It also attenuated nickel-induced abnormalities in renal architecture. Although carnosine showed antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in renal tissue of nickel-exposed rats, we cannot clearly attribute the protective effect of carnosine to these effects. Instead, the beneficial effect of carnosine observed in the current study may be due to chelation between nickel and carnosine. Thus, carnosine may represent a therapeutic option to protect against nickel-induced nephrotoxicity that deserves further consideration and examination. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1139\/cjpp-2016-0647","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,4]],"date-time":"2017-07-04T21:33:36Z","timestamp":1499204016000},"page":"1426-1432","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1139\/csp-crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":33,"title":["Chelating effects of carnosine in ameliorating nickel-induced nephrotoxicity in rats"],"prefix":"10.1139","volume":"95","author":[{"given":"Parisa","family":"Hasanein","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology, School of Basic Sciences, Bu-Ali Sina University, Hamedan, Iran."},{"name":"Department of Biology, School of Basic Sciences, Bu-Ali Sina University, Hamedan, Iran."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhila","family":"Felegari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biology, School of Basic Sciences, Bu-Ali Sina University, Hamedan, Iran."},{"name":"Department of Biology, School of Basic Sciences, Bu-Ali Sina University, Hamedan, Iran."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"155","reference":[{"key":"refg1\/ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2014\/958621"},{"key":"refg3\/ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/tox.20719"},{"key":"refg4\/ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1191\/096032799678839563"},{"key":"refg5\/ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1684\/ecn.2016.0372"},{"key":"refg6\/ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cbi.2011.05.003"},{"key":"refg7\/ref7","first-page":"739","volume":"22","author":"Budze\u0144 S.","year":"2013","journal-title":"Adv.
