Lycopene is a natural carotenoid that has been reported to exhibit excellent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. In this study, male Wistar albino rats received lead (Pb) (300 mg/L, in drinking water) and/or lycopene (4mg/kg) for 8 consecutive weeks to investigate the ameliorative effect of lycopene upon Pb-induced nephrotoxicity. Renal damage was assessed by detecting serum level of urea, creatinine, acute kidney injury molecule-1and cystatin-C, in addition, serum level of some inflammatory cytokines were assessed. Also, renal lipid peroxide level and antioxidant status of the kidney with renal activity of energy metabolism enzymes (pyruvate kinase (PK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G-6-P) were evaluated. Moreover, lead-induced neph...
