Abstract:The present study has been carried out to investigate the possible therapeutic effect of curcumin loaded iron oxide nanoparticles (MNP-CUR) administered through intraperitoneal (i.p) injection after whole body gamma irradiation of rats. Whole body gamma irradiation of rats at 6 Gy (single dose) caused significant reduction in red blood cells count, hemoglobin levels, lymphocytes, neutrophils, and monocytes associated with highly significant elevation in malondialdehyde (MDA). The reduction in catalase (CAT) ac… Show more
