Renal issues are a major problem for humanity. The renal system may sustain damage from the potentially dangerous radiation. Therefore, the
purpose of this study is to evaluate how well curcumin and ascorbic acid protect kidney tissue from being altered by UVB-induced hyperthyroidism
in female Wistar rats. Twenty-four female’s sexually older Wistar rats weighing 130 g-150 g and aged 12-16 weeks were arbitrarily divided into
four groups. The control group received normal food and water ad libitum. The UVB group was exposed to a dose of 280 nm of UVB radiation for 2
h daily. The UVB+ curcumin group received a dose of 280 nm of UVB radiation for 2 h daily and also an oral dose of curcumin (25 mg/kg body
weight) daily. The UVB+ ascorbic acid group received a dose of 280 nm of UVB radiation for 2 h daily and also an oral dose of ascorbic acid (250.. Read More»
