Serum Creatinine, Urea, K, Total Protein, and Albumin Levels CCl4 injection substantially raised serum creatinine, urea, and k levels in GII rats when when compared with control rats (GI). Conversely, total protein and albumin levels were significantly decreased in CCl4 -treated rats (Table three). Vit. E + Se and a. hierochuntica extracts (G III, IV, V, and VI) substantially decreased the alterations in creatinine and urea triggered by CCl4 injection, whilst they increased albumin and total proteins to become close to regular values in GI (Table three). Serum k level was markedly improved in CCl4 -treated rats (GII) when in comparison with GI (Table three). The injection of vit. E + Se and administration of A. hierochuntica alcoholic and aqueous extracts (G IV, V, and VI) was also positively boost the k level when in comparison to GI (Table 3).Nutrients 2021, 13,7 ofTable 3.

Renal Antioxidant Biomarkers As shown in Table four, administration of CCl4 drastically reduced SOD and GSH levels and enhanced the MDA level in GII kidney homogenate tissue. However, when in comparison with GI, rats treated with each vit. E + Se and a. hierochuntica extracts (GIII, VI, V, and VI) exhibited a substantial improvement in the activity of antioxidant enzymes SOD and GSH, too as a reduction in MDA levels (Table 4). A. hierochuntica alcoholic extract (GIV) outperformed A. hierochuntica aqueous extract (GV) and combined A. hierochuntica alcoholic and aqueous extracts in attenuating antioxidant levels, and combating the autoxi
