This study was designed to investigate the ameliorating effect of Curcuma longa (curcumin) against cadmium chloride toxicity in pancreatic tissue of mice. Twenty mice were divided into four equal groups. Group 1 was given distilled water orally and considered as control group, group 2 received 1mg/kg B.w of cadmium chloride on alternate days, group 3 received 1mg/kg B.w of cadmium chloride on alternate days and 100 mg/kg B.w of curcumin every day for 15 days, group 4 received 100mg/kg B.w of only curcumin daily and were kept as positive control. Autopsies were done on 15 days post treatment. The results showed an adverse effect of cadmium on oxidative balance and serum enzymatic activities, while curcumin showed effective antioxidant effect which was shown by a decrease in MDA (lipid peroxidation), serum amylase and lipase concentration.
