Curcumin (diferuloylmethane), a yellow poliphenol pigment isolated from rhizome of Curcuma longa, has been used throughout Asia for several thousands of years. Beside giving curry dishes their color, curcumin has been reported as an agent used in the treatment of various disorders. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of chronic curcumin administration on enzymatic and nonenzymatic protective mechanisms in the livers of aging rats. The liver was isolated from Wistar Albino Glaxo rats, age 6 and 22 months. All rats were fed a standard chow diet. Two groups of older animals were given a standard diet supplemented either with 10 mg/kg b.w. or with 50 mg/kg b.w. of curcumin powder for 10 weeks before their sacrifice. Malondialdehyde level, reduced glutathione, the activity of catalase, glutathione S-transferase, and arginase were determined. Increased lipid peroxidation was observed in old rat livers, elevated catalase and arginase activities, as well as the level of reduced glutathione in curcumin fed animals. No changes in glutathione S-transferase activity were found. It may be concluded that curcumin administered in a diet exerts an antioxidant effect and protects the liver against ammonia intoxication.
