In this study the effect of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), a phenolic antioxidantused in food on Ferric‐Nitrilotriacetate (Fe–NTA) induced nephrotoxicity is reported. Fe‐NTA (9 mg Fe/kg body weight, intraperitoneally) treatment enhanced the renal microsomal lipid peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide generation to ~2‐2.5 folds compared to saline‐treated control and glutathione levels and the activities of antioxidant enzymes decreased to a range of 2–2.5 fold in kidney. These changes were reversed significantly in animals receiving a pretreatment of BHA. Pretreatment with BHA prior to Fe‐ NTA treatment reduced microsomal lipid peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide generation to 1.3‐1.5 fold compared to control group and glutathione and the activities of antioxidant enzymes increased to a range of 1.5‐2 folds in kidney. Fe‐NTA administration enhanced value of blood urea nitrogen and creatinine to 3.7 and 2.5 fold respectively as compared to their corresponding control group. Administration of Fe‐NTA to rats receiving a pretreatment of BHA led to a significant diminution in both of these values. The results indicate that BHA is a potent chemopreventive agent and suppresses Fe‐NTA induced nephrotoxicity in rats.
