    Abstract:
    Nephrotoxicity of daunorubicin in rats and effect of tocopherol and ascorbic acid on lesions induced in kidneys by daunorubicin were examined. Daunorubicin induced nephrotic syndrome with proteinuria and hypoproteinemia. Histological changes in the glomeruli appeared as a dilatation of capillary loops and enlargement of the urinary space. The glomerular basement membrane showed minimal thickening. In tubuli protein casts were noticed. No beneficial influence of tocopherol and ascorbic acid on daunorubicin related nephrotoxicity was observed.
