Özet

In our study, the effect of Bromelain on the histopathological changes in the kidney tissue of hyperlipidemic rats induced by an artificial surfactant, Tyloxopol, was evaluated. For the analysis, 18 Wistar rats (Rattus norvecigus, male) weighing 250±30 g were used. Experimental animals were randomly divided into three groups (n=6) and caged. Group A: Healthy control, Group B; Hyperlipidemic control group (a single dose of Tyloxapol (400 mg/kg, i.p) administered 24 hours before bromelain administration) and Group C: Tyloxapol + Bromelain group (bromelain (250 mg/kg, daily for 18 days) orally for 18 days after 24 hours of bromelain administration) ) were classified as the given group. For histopathological examinations, kidney tissues taken from rats 24 hours after the applications were taken into the pathological process and made ready for microscopic examination. While no pathological findings were observed in the healthy control group in the imaging process, pathological changes such as tubular dilatation, congestion, bleeding, mononuclear cell infiltration, apoptosis and necrosis in the cells were observed in the hyperlipidemia group. The pathological findings that emerged with the application of bromelain were reduced by the effect of bromelain. As a result of the examinations, it has been clearly stated that bromelain has a protective effect against the damage to the kidney tissue caused by hyperlipidemia.
