Comparative efficacy of ternary Cu (II) complex and Zn (II)-complex in amelioration of carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatotoxicity in vivo
Cu (II) and Zn (II) are two of the most favored metals in synthesis chemistry, encompassing their therapeutic potentials. The present study aims to evaluate the comparative ameliorative potential of a group B carcinogen, CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity, by our recently synthesized and characterized tern...

description | Cu (II) and Zn (II) are two of the most favored metals in synthesis chemistry, encompassing their therapeutic potentials. The present study aims to evaluate the comparative ameliorative potential of a group B carcinogen, CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity, by our recently synthesized and characterized ternary Cu and Zn-based complexes in vivo. Three groups of rats were treated with CCl4 alone and with the combination of Cu (II) complex and Zn (II) complex beside the control negative group without any treatment. After completion of the treatment, the samples were subjected to biochemical and histological analysis. The analysis demonstrated extensive alteration in redox status, liver markers, and hepatotoxicity markers in the CCl4, treated group compared to the control group. However, the Cu (II) complex showed significant improvement in most of the parameters under the study. Also, histopathological evaluation and comet assay further consolidated the findings. Hence, this investigation reveals that Cu (II) complex has more substantial ameliorative potential in ceasing CCl4-induced hepatotoxic insults. Therefore, the ternary Cu (II) complex act as a more potent chemotherapeutic agent in cancer treatment with milder side effects than the Zn (II) complex. |
