    Abstract:
    Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is a widely used broad-spectrum pesticide with multi-organ toxic effects. Oxidative stress was found to play a role in the deleterious effects of CPF, including nephrotoxicity. This study investigated the protective effect of the antioxidant polyphenol rosmarinic acid (RA) against CPF-induced kidney injury, with an emphasis on oxidative injury, inflammation, SIRT1, and Nrf2/HO-1 signaling. Rats received 10 mg/kg CPF and 25, 50, and 100 mg/kg RA orally for 28 days, and the samples were collected for analysis. CPF increased serum urea and creatinine and kidney Kim-1 and caused several histopathological alterations. ROS, MDA, NO, NF-κB p65, TNF-α, and IL-1β were elevated in the kidney of CPF-intoxicated rats. RA ameliorated kidney function markers, prevented tissue injury, suppressed ROS, MDA, and NO, and downregulated NF-κB p65, TNF-α, and IL-1β in CPF-intoxicated rats in a dose-dependent manner. RA decreased Bax, caspase-3, oxidative DNA damage, and Keap1, boosted antioxidant enzymes and Bcl-2, and upregulated Nrf2, HO-1, and SIRT1 in CPF-administered rats. Molecular docking simulation revealed the binding affinity of RA toward NF-κB, Keap1, HO-1, and SIRT1. In conclusion, RA prevented CPF nephrotoxicity by attenuating oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis and upregulating SIRT1 and Nrf2/HO-1 signaling.
