Chemoprotective effects of hesperidin against genotoxicity induced by cyclophosphamide in mice bone marrow cells

Abstract: The preventive effect of hesperidin as a flavonoid was investigated in mouse bone marrow cells against genotoxicity induced by cyclophosphamide. Mice were orally (gavages) pretreated with solutions of hesperidin at four different doses (50, 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg b.w.) for five consecutive days. Mice were injected intraperitoneally on the fifth day with cyclophosphamide (50 mg/kg b.w.) and killed after 24 h for the evaluation of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (MnPCEs) and the ratio of PCE/(PCE+NCE)… Show more

“…As result, both drugs are genotoxic agents because they and their metabolites can bind DNA, causing damage that may result in chromosome breaks, micronucleus formation and cell death (Ahmadi et al 2008).…”

“…Previous studies have shown that CP alters sperm chromatin structure, composition of sperm head basic proteins and increases abnormal sperm rate, and manifest biochemical and histological alterations in testis [2][3][4]. It has been reported that oxidative stress-induced biochemical and physiological damage is responsible for CP toxicity in testis and spermatozoa [5][6][7]. The mitochondrial membrane of spermatozoa is more susceptible to lipid peroxidation, as this compartment is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids and has been shown to contain low amounts of antioxidants [8,9].…”
