dc.description.abstractIn the kidney, prostaglandins represent important physiological modulators of renal hemodynamics and salt and water homeostasis. In this experimental study of bilaterally adrenalectomized (ADX) rats, we aimed to investigate whether the administration of selective (celecoxib) inhibitor of COX-2 would alter the morphological and functional changes in rat kidney tissue. Twenty-one male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 225-250 g were used. The animals were divided into three groups. Group 1 rats (Sham-control, n = 7) did not receive any treatment. In group 2 rats (ADX/Untreated, n = 7), bilateral ADX was performed via a single dorsal incision. In group 3 (ADX/COX-2) rats, the same operation was performed as described for group 2 and then the COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib was administered by gavage for a period of 7 days. On the 7th day of the study, renal function was assessed by measurements of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine levels. Biopsies were obtained from the remaining left kidneys before killing the rats. There was no significant difference in the BUN and creatinine values between the groups. In ADX/Untreated group, capillary congestion in glomerule, inflammation, hemorrhage and congestion in intertubular area, and cytoplasmic vacuolation in renal tubules was observed. Mild damage was observed in the ADX/COX-2 group. The number of macrophages was significantly decreased in ADX/COX-2 group when compared to ADX/Untreated group (P < 0.0001). Our study indicates that celecoxib may be an important factor affecting renal morphological changes after the bilaterally ADX.en_US
