This study evaluates ameliorative effect of different concentrations of mushroom (Pleurotus tuberregium) on the effects of lead (Pb). Ninety albino rats were divided into six groups with three replicates (5 rats per group) for 21 days pre-experimental stage for acclimatization. The experimental groups were exposed to 0.1 g/l of lead daily for 21 days. At the end of exposure period, lead salt was discontinued for 21 and 42days to verify possible ameliorative effect of mushroom in the post-experimental stage. Samples of liver and kidney tissues were then collected and subsequently analyzed for structural changes every 21 days. The tissues of the pre-experimental stages showed normal tissues as those of the control except in the liver which showed mild periportal chronic inflammatory cell. However, the experimental groups, showed liver with focal periportal vascular congestion and hypertrophy, moderate chronic inflammatory cell infiltration and interstitial oedema. The kidney showed focal proximal tubular necrosis, transmural oedema, interstitial haemorrhage, and chronic inflammatory cell infiltration. The tissues of liver and kidney in the post experimental stages were improved with increased mushroom content in the feed. Results of this study demonstrated that P. tuberregium may ameliorate lead toxicity in liver and kidney tissues.
