Telmisartan and nicorandil attenuate Polymyxin B-induced renal injury by modulating NrF2/NQO1, FAS/FASL signaling, and mitigation of P53, Cyt-C, and caspase-3

The renoprotective effects of telmisartan and nicorandil were mediated through modulation of the Nrf2/NQO1 antioxidant pathway and FAS/FASL apoptotic signaling, along with downregulation of renal expression of p53, cytochrome c, and caspase-3. These observations clearly indicate the protective role of both agents against PMB-induced nephrotoxicity.

Abstract

The renoprotective effects of telmisartan and nicorandil were mediated through modulation of the Nrf2/NQO1 antioxidant pathway and FAS/FASL apoptotic signaling, along with downregulation of renal expression of p53, cytochrome c, and caspase-3. These observations clearly indicate the protective role of both agents against PMB-induced nephrotoxicity.
