ABSTRACT
Endosulfan administration (po, 15 and 30 days at 7.5 and 10 mg/kg body wt respectively) inhibited the activity of microsomal mixed function oxidases in kidney tissue of male rats. Microsomal and cytosolic protein contents of kidney were significantly increased following 30 days endosulfan exposures. Profound induction in the activity profiles of alcohol dehydrogenase and cytosolic glutathione s-transferase was noticed, however, no such change was apparent in the activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase. Microsomal preparations from treated animals showed a dose and duration dependent increase in spontaneous lipid peroxidation. The observed biochemical changes persisted even after 7 days normalcy allowance provided after the endosulfan (10 mg/kg body wt) withdrawl. The results suggest a substantial renal toxicity of endosulfan to male rats in relation to microsomal mixed function oxidases and associated functions which possibly resulted from lipid peroxidative damage of microsomal membrane in treated animals.
