Abstract

Objective: Nephrotoxicity is the most important side effect of the antineoplastic drug cisplatin, thereby restricting its use. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of white tea infusions(WT) against renal damage induced by cisplatin(CP) in rats by biochemical and histopathological means.
