The spherical shaped BBR-AgNPs were synthesized by the Biofabrication technique and its physico-chemical characterizations done by different spectroscopic (UV–vis spectrophotometer, XRD spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy EDAX & DLS analyses) and microscopic (FE-SEM) techniques. The diabetic developed rats were administrated with APAP (2.0 g/5 ml/kg) and scrutinize its hepato-renal injuries. The synthesized BBR-AgNPs (75 mg/kg p.o) was administrated orally to the APAP-induced diabetic rats. The result of biochemical markers and lipid peroxidation were significantly (P ˂ 0.05) increased in APAP-induced diabetic rats but decreased the level of antioxidants (P ˂ 0.05), which results obtained in liver and kidney compared to the control group. Immunohistochemical studies result showed that the APAP-induced diabetic rats expressed a high immunoreactivity of nuclear transcription factor (NF-kB). Whereas, the acetaminophen-induced diabetic rats were ...
