    Beneficial effects of thymoquinone and omega-3 on intestinal ischemia/reperfusion-induced renal dysfunction in rats
    (Elsevier, 2014-12) Fayez, Ahmed M; Awad, Azza S; Mona M.El-Naa, Mona M; Kenawy, Sanaa A.; El-Sayedc, Mostafa E.
    Intestinal ischemia–reperfusion (II/R) is a complex phenomenon causing local and remote tissue destruction and multiple-organ dysfunction. The technique has been used by many authors to produce certain organ dysfunctions. This study is to investigate the possible beneficial effects of thymoquinone and omega-3 separately in II/R-induced renal dysfunction in rats. Sixty-four Wistar albino rats were randomly allocated into four experimental groups namely sham control, II/R control, thymoquinone and omega-3 each group pre-treated separately. II/R model was established by clamping the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) for 30 min followed by 60 min reperfusion.
