Several studies have been focused on identifying alternative medicines for the treatment of cancer. This study aimed to investigate the impact of B-Glucans extract (BG) against Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma (EAC) induced toxicity and tissue damage in kidney. A total of 40 mice were assigned randomly to four groups (G1, control; G2, B-Glucans (75 mg/kg bw/day) orally for 2 weeks; G3, EAC and G4, EAC + BG). Current results revealed, EAC induced significant elevation in urea, creatinine, potassium (k + ), chloride (Cl -) ions, kidney injury and significant decrease in sodium (Na + ) and calcium (Ca ++ ) ions when compared to B-glucans and control groups. Conversely, EAC + B-glucans modulate these changes and improved the renal functions and structure. EAC induced renal dysfunction and B-Glucans has the ability to improve renal functions. We can conclude that; BG could be used as an adjuvant therapy for kidney in ascites of hepatocellular carcinoma, Schistosoma and hepatitis.

An important target organ for thyroid hormone activity is the testis and hypo or hyperthyroidism causes noticeable alterations in testicular function. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of Coriander Seeds Extract (CSE) against thyroidectomy induced toxicity, oxidative stress, injury, and proliferation in male testes rats. 40 male rats were equally divided into 4 groups [Gp1, control; Gp2, CSE; Gp3, thyroidectomies rats (Thy); Gp4, treated thyroidectomies rats with coriander (Thy + CSE)]. Current results revealed after 3 weeks of thyroidectomy; a significant (p<0.05) elevation in TSH, total T4, serum AST, and serum ALP, nonprogressive motility and immotile sperms, testicular MDA, testicular injury, and a significant (p<0.05) reduction in total T3, sexual hormones (testosterone, FSH, LH, and prolactin), sperms parameters (count, morphological index, vitality, total and progressive motility), testicular GSH, testicular SOD, and testicular GST and PCNA expressions when compared with control. Thy + CSE modulates most of changes parameters and recovery the testicular injury. We can conclude that; coriander seed extract could enhance the testis against thyroidectomy produced toxicity and oxidative stress in testes through its positive effects in scavenging free radicals.
