However, the effective treatment Pb-induced nephrotoxicity remains elusive. Grape extract (GSPE) has beneficial properties for multiple biological functions. Therefore, present study investigated whether GSPE reduced as well protective mechanism in well-established 35-day Pb induced rat model. The results showed normalized histological damage, inflammatory, apoptosis, changes miR153 glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) levels kidney. Moreover, enhanced induction phase II detoxifying enzymes (heme oxygenase-1 NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1) by increasing nuclear factor-erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) expression. This identifies first time stress attenuated via activating Nrf2 signaling pathway suppressing GSK-3β. provides new therapeutic target renal injury Pb, could be potential natural agent protect against
