Abstract :Aim: During surgical procedures such as liver resection and transplantation, ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and related complications may occur at a rate of approximately 10%. Our study, we planned to investigate histologically and biochemically the efficacy of Taxifolin in the prevention of renal tissue damage in liver ischemia reperfusion. Methods: A total of 28 Wistar Albino rats with an average age of 8-10 weeks and weights of 250-300 grams were used in our study. Group 1 (n=7): control group, Group 2 (n=7): Taxifolin group; Taxifolin was administered orally at a dose of 50 mg/kg for 3 weeks, Group 3 (n=7): Liver I/R group, 30 minutes ischemia and 120 minutes reperfusion was performed. Group 4 (n=7): Taxifolin+Liver I/R group. Results: Kidney tissues of the liver I/R group showed atrophy, degeneration of tubule epithelium and increased TNF-α expression. In addition, deterioration in renal function tests was also monitored in this group. In the Taxifolin+Liver I/R group, a significant difference was observed on both histologic and biochemical basis compared to the Liver I/R group and a positive effect was observed (p<0.05). Outcome: As a consequence of hepatic ischemia and reperfusion, impairment in the function and histological appearance of renal tissues was observed and Taxifolin was monitored to be effective in eliminating these adverse effects.Keywords : Karaciğer iskemi ve reperfüzyon, Taksifolin, Histopatoloji, İmmunohistokimya, Oksidatif stres
