Özet
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of chronic ethanol intake and cigarette smoke exposure on rat kidney. The animals were divided into four experimental groups: (1) the control group (C), (2) the ethanol group (E), (3) the cigarette smoke group (CS), and (4) the cigarette smoke plus ethanol group (CS+E). Rats in E, CS and CS+E groups were treated with ethanol and/or cigarette smoke for 6 months. The animals were killed and the kidneys were removed to determine the activity of xanthine oxidase (XO), myeloperoxidase (MPO) and the levels of nitric oxide (NO). Histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis were performed in kidney tissues. The activity of XO/g protein were 2.8 ± 0.3, 5.2 ± 0.3, 3.2 ± 0.1, and 7.4 ± 0.7 U for C, E, CS and CS+E groups, respectively. In groups E, and CS+E, the XO values were significantly higher than in group C (P < 0.05). The increase in XO activity of CS was …
