Manganese mitigates against hepatorenal oxidative stress, inflammation and caspase-3 activation in rats exposed to hexachlorobenzene / Abiola S. Tijani, Olori O. David, Ebenezer O. Farombi

Abstract The present study investigated the individual and collective effect of organochlorinated fungicide hexachlorobenzene (HCB) and manganese (Mn), a metal, on the hepatorenal function in adult rats. Rats were divided into four groups of rats comprising of control, HCB alone (15 mg/kg), Mn alone (10 mg/kg) and co-exposure group that were orally treated for 25 consecutive days. After sacrifice, hepatorenal damage and antioxidant status markers, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, levels of nitric oxide, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), total oxidative stress (TOS) and lipid peroxidation (LPO) were analyzed spectrophotometrically. Levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 β (IL-1β) and caspase-3 activity were assessed using ELISA. Results revealed that the HCB administration significantly ( p  < 0.05) increased the biomarkers of hepatorenal toxicity, decreased the antioxidant status and TAC, raised the levels of TOS and LPO as well as increased the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and caspase-3 activity. Rats co-exposed to HCB and Mn showed decreased biomarkers of hepatorenal damage, increased antioxidant status and TAC with simultaneous reduction in the levels of TOS and LPO significantly ( p  < 0.05). Furthermore, the increased levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and caspase-3 activity were significantly ( p  < 0.05) reduced in the liver and kidney of rats’ co-expose to HCB and Mn. Histological examination showed that damages induced by HCB were assuaged in rats co-treated with HCB and Mn. In conclusion, the results demonstrated that co-treatment of HCB and Mn in rats’ alleviated HCB-induced oxidative stress, inflammation and caspase-3 activation in the liver and kidney of the rats.
