Abstract

Bisphenol A (BPA) has endocrine-disrupting properties. The present study aimed to examine thepossible protective roles of curcumin and taurine against BPA-induced small intestine toxicity in rats. For thispurpose, forty-two adult albino male rats were divided seven equal groups: control, olive oil, curcumin (100 mgkg-1 daily), taurine (100 mg kg-1 daily), BPA (130 mg kg-1 daily), curcumin+BPA, taurine+BPA. After four weeks ontreatment small intestine tissues were examined for histopathological examinations. BPA caused seriously toxicityon small intestine tissues, but curcumin and taurine did not have completely protective effects of this damage.
