BACKGROUND: Cyclosporine A (CsA) is an immunosuppressant with therapeutic
indications in various immunological diseases; however, its use is associated
with chronic nephropathy. Oxidative stress has a crucial role in CsA-induced
nephrotoxicity. The present study evaluates the protective effect of edaravone on
CsA-induced chronic nephropathy and investigates its antioxidant and nitric oxide
modulating property. METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=66) were distributed
into nine groups, including a control (group 1) (n=7). Eight groups received CsA
(15 mg/kg) for 28 days while being treated. The groups were categorized as: Group
2: Vehicle (n=10)Groups 3, 4, and 5: Edaravone (1, 5, and 10 mg/kg) (n=7
each)Group 6: Diphenyliodonium chloride, a specific endothelial nitric oxide
synthase (eNOS) inhibitor (n=7)Group 7: Aminoguanidine, a specific inducible
nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor (n=7)Group 8: Edaravone (10 mg/kg) plus
diphenyliodonium chloride (n=7)Group 9: Edaravone (10 mg/kg) plus aminoguanidine
(n=7) Blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels, malondialdehyde,
superoxide dismutase, and glutathione reductase enzyme activities were measured
using standard kits. Renal histopathological evaluations and measurements of eNOS
and iNOS gene expressions by RT-PCR were also performed. Data were analyzed using
one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey's test (SPSS software
version 18.0). RESULTS: Edaravone (10 mg/kg) significantly attenuated CsA-induced
oxidative stress, renal dysfunction, and kidney tissue injury. Aminoguanidine
improved the renoprotective effect of edaravone. Edaravone reduced the elevated
mRNA level of iNOS, but could not alter the level of eNOS mRNA significantly.
CONCLUSION: Edaravone protects against CsA-induced chronic nephropathy using
antioxidant property and probably through inhibiting iNOS gene expression.
