Curcumin Alleviates Ochratoxin A-Induced Oxidative Injury in Porcine Kidney Epithelial Cells in Association with Restored Nrf2/NQO1/HO-1-Related Antioxidant Expression
Ochratoxin A (OTA) damages renal epithelial cells and disrupts redox homeostasis. We examined whether curcumin (Cur) reduces OTA-induced injury in porcine kidney epithelial PK-15 cells and whether protection accompanies changes in antioxidant expression. Preliminary concentration screening gave an OTA half-maximal inhi...
