Öğe Effect of fish oil, olive oil, and vitamin E on liver pathology, cell proliferation, and antioxidant defense system in rats subjected to partial hepatectomy(Elsevier Science Inc, 2006) Kirimlioglu, V; Kirimlioglu, H; Yilmaz, S; Ozgor, D; Coban, S; Karadag, N; Yologlu, SThe high capacity of liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PH) is well known. This study investigated the role of the antioxidant defense system in regeneration among Wistar-albino male rats subjected to 70% partial hepatectomy after a pretreatment period of 2 weeks with eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) rich fish oil (FO), first pressed virgin olive oil (00), or vitamin E. The control group of 10 rats underwent PH only. On postoperative day 3, all rats were humanely killed. Liver sections of animals treated with FO or vitamin E showed significant increases in regeneration within both liver parenchyma and cut surface compared with the control group (P < .05). Liver sections of 00 displayed an insignificant increase in liver regeneration (P > .05), with less increase in parenchyma than of the cut surface. The enhancement of the liver parenchymal regeneration in the FO group was significantly greater than that of the vitamin E group. Concerning liver function tests (LIFT), there was no significant difference among the groups. When the treatment groups were compared to the control group glutathione (GSH) levels were increased and content of malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were decreased. Based on these results, we concluded that after 70% PH in rats, the liver parenchyma and cut surface regeneration were greatest with FO and least with 00 treatment. Both FO and vitamin E served to improve the antioxidant defense system more than 00 treatment.Öğe Effects of nucleoside analogues on liver regeneration 70% partially hepatectomized rats(Elsevier Science Inc, 2006) Yilmaz, S; Kirimlioglu, V; Kirimlioglu, H; Coban, S; Kayaalp, C; Yilmaz, M; Karakoc, YThe alternatives for prophlaxis and treatment of recurrent hepatitis B virus infection have increased since new oral nucleoside analogues have become available. We conducted this experimental study to investigate the effect in the liver of these agents on the expression of transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-alpha) and on proliferation index, estimated by Ki-67. Thirty male Wistar albino rats were randomized into three groups: group A (n = 10) received adefovir dipivoxil (40 mg/kg/d per gavage); group B (n = 10), lamivudine (L; 30 mg/kg/d per gavage); and group C (n = 10) did not receive any treatment and were the control group. Groups A and B were treated for 3 days. Animal treatment began on day -1. After performing 70% partial hepatectomy on day 0, all rats were sacrificed on postoperative day 2 to harvest liver tissues for histopathological examination. We stained and indexed Ki-67 and TGF-alpha immunohistochemically on the hepatectomy surface and in the parenchyma, Ki-67 and TGF-a indices were significantly higher in group A compared with group B (P = .001 and P = .004, respectively, and P = .003 and P = .001, respectively). When the L group was compared with the control group for results on the hepatectomy surface and the parenchyma, Ki-67 and TGF-a indexes were insignificantly different (P = .6 and P = .3, respectively, and P = .1 and P = .6, respectively). Based on the results of this experimental study, we concluded that Adefovir dipivoxil has greater proliferative effect on liver parenchyma and in the cut surface than does lamivudine.Öğe Liver pathology and cell proliferation after calcineurin inhibitors and anti proliferative drugs following partial hepatectomy in rats(Elsevier Science Inc, 2006) Kirimlioglu, H; Kirimlioglu, V; Yilmaz, S; Coban, S; Turkmen, E; Ara, CImmunosuppressants are the cornerstones of treatment after solid organ transplantation. This study investigated the pathology and cell proliferation following partial hepatectomy (PH) in rats undergoing immunosuppressive treatment. After I day, all rats were subjected to 70% PH. Groups A and B (n = 10) received calcineurin inhibitors subcutaneously: either FK506 or cyclosporine (CyA). Groups C and D (n = 10) received antiproliferative drugs: either mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) or sirolimus (SRL) by gavage. A control group (n = 5) received 1 mL of tap water daily. On postoperative day 2, all rats were sacrificed to obtain liver tissue for pathologic examination. Using immunohistochemistry we separately examined the hepatectomy surface and the liver parenchyma. In the parenchyma, the Ki-67 indices were higher in the CyA and FK506 groups and lower in the SRL and MMF groups compared with controls (P < .01). CyA had the highest and MMF the lowest values. On the hepatectomy surface, Ki-67 indices and TGF-alpha expressions were higher in the CyA group and lower in the SRL and MMF groups compared with the control group (P < .01). Slightly higher values in the FK506 group were not significantly different compared with the control group (P > .05). All groups other than FK506 showed prominent cholangiolar epithelial phenotypes compared with the control group. In the CyA and SRL groups, the number of cholangiolar cells was higher (P < .01), and in the MMF group lower than in the control group (P < .01). Among all groups, SRL had the highest values.Öğe Liver patholology and cell proliferation after calcineurin inhibitors and antiproliferative drugs following partial hepatectomy in rat.(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2005) Kirimlioglu, V; Kirimlioglu, H; Yilmaz, S; Coban, S; Turkmen, E[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Protective effect of melatonin against oxidative stress on adhesion formation in the rat cecum and uterine horn model(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2005) Ara, C; Kirimlioglu, H; Karabulut, AB; Coban, S; Hascalik, S; Celik, O; Yilmaz, SThis experimental study was designed to evaluate the degree of adhesion formation and peritoneal tissue levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH) and nitric oxide (NO) and the effect of melatonin on these metabolites in a postoperative intraperitoneal adhesion formation model in rats. Thirty adult female Wistar albino rats were subjected to standardized lesions by cecal and uterine horn abrasion and were randomly divided into three groups. Control rats were treated with 5% ethanol. Melatonin treated rats received 4 mg/kg melatonin before closure and for 10 consecutive days intraperitoneally after surgery. Rats in the sham operation group underwent a surgical procedure similar to the other groups however the peritoneal abrasion was not performed. On postoperative day 10 relaparatomy was performed. After the assessment of the adhesions, the rats in each group were sacrificed and peritoneal tissues were harvested to determine the tissue levels of MDA, GSH and NO activity. Adhesion formation scores in the melatonin group were significantly lower than that of control and sham group (p < 0.01 and p < 0.02, respectively). Tissue levels of MDA and NO were significantly lower in the melatonin treated rats when compared with control and sham groups. The levels of GSH in the melatonin treated rats were significantly higher than those of control and sham groups (p < 0.01). The results demonstrate that in this experimental model, intraperitoneal administration of melatonin decreases the extent of peritoneal adhesions and causes a decrease in MDA and NO and an increase in GSH levels.

We investigated the protective role of resveratrol in rat liver injuries induced by chronic biliary obstruction. Materials and methods. Secondary biliary cirrhosis was induced by bile duct ligation for 28 days. Swiss albino rats were divided into the three following groups: group 1: sham (n = 7); group 2: bile duct ligation (n = 7); group 3: bile duct ligation plus resveratrol (n = 7). Bile duct ligation plus resveratrol group received 10 mg(kg dose of resveratrol intraperitoneally daily for 28 days. Liver damage and cholestasis were determined by the biochemical and the pathologic examination. Results. The present data showed a decrease in both plasma bilirubin levels and aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase levels in the resveratrol-treated rats, when compared with bile duct ligation group (P < 0.05). In the resveratrol-treated rats, tissue levels of malondialdehyde and nitric oxide were significantly lower than that of the bile duct ligation (P < 0.002). The levels of glutathione in resveratrol-treated rats were significantly higher than that in bile duct ligation group (P < 0.004). The levels of interleukin-1 alpha, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in resveratrol group were significantly lower than that in bile duct ligation group (P < 0.004, P < 0.001, P < 0.001, respectively). Administration of resveratrol in the rats with biliary obstruction resulted in inhibition of ductular proliferation and lymphocytic inflammation. Conclusion. The present study demonstrates that intraperitoneal administration of resveratrol in bile duct ligated rats maintained antioxidant defenses and reduces liver oxidative damage and ductular proliferation. This effect of resveratrol may be useful in the preservation of liver function in cholestasis. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc.

This experimental study was designed to evaluate histological changes of the kidney and renal tissue levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH), and nitric oxide (NO) and the effect of resveratrol on these metabolites after bile duct ligation in rats. Methods. Secondary biliary cirrhosis was induced by bile duct ligation for 28 days. Swiss albino rats were divided into three groups. Group 1: Sham (n=7), Group 2: Bile duct ligation (n=7), Group 3: Bile duct ligation plus resveratrol (n=7). Bile duct ligation (BDL) plus resveratrol group received 10 mgr/kg dose of resveratrol intraperitoneally daily throughout 28 days. Kidney tissues were harvested to determine the tissue levels of MDA, GSH, and NO activity. Liver and kidney tissues were removed for light microscopic evaluation. Results. Cholestasis was determined by biochemical and pathologic examination. In the resveratrol-treated rats, levels of MDA were significantly lower than those of the BDL group (p<0.04). The levels of GSH in the resveratrol-treated rats were significantly higher than those in the BDL group (p<0.01). The levels of NO in the resveratrol group were significantly lower than those in the BDL group (p<0.01). Conclusion. The present study demonstrates that intraperitoneal administration of resveratrol in bile duct ligated rats maintains antioxidant defenses and reduces kidney oxidative damage. This effect of resveratrol may be useful in the preservation of renal oxidative stress in cholestasis.
