| Abstract | ||
| The current study has been designed to investigate the physiological effect of parsley (petroslinumcrispum) leaves on serum and urine concentrations of some biochemical constituents and renal tubules architecture in albino rats. Twenty albino rats were assigned in two groups: control and treatment group, fed on standard and parsley leaves-supplemented feed, respectively for ten days. At the end of the experiment, blood and urine samples were collected for serum and urineanalysis. Kidneys were removed and transferred to the tissue processing. The results revealed an acidic urine, proteinuria, hypokalemia, hyponatremia, significant decrease in BUN and significant increase in serum uric acid level in treatment group.The histological study revealed a hydropic changes in convoluted tubules epithelium, sloughing of some epithelium to the lumen, the renal tubules was dilated and contained colloid casts. | ||
