Curcumin prevents renal hemodynamic alterations. Curcumin ameliorates 5/6NX-induced alterations in mean arterial pressure (MAP), proteinuria and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and in the following parameters of renal hemodynamics: single-nephron glomerular filtration rate (SNGFR), single-nephron plasma flow (Qa), glomerular capillary pressure (PGc), afferent resistance (AR) and efferent resistance (ER).
