Öğe Effect of resveratrol and melatonin on oxidative stress enzymes, regeneration, and hepatocyte ultrastructure in rats subjected to 70% partial hepatectomy(Elsevier Science Inc, 2008) Kirimlioglu, H.; Ecevit, A.; Yilmaz, S.; Kirimlioglu, V.; Karabulut, A. BayAim. We sought to compare the antioxidant effects of resveratrol (R) and melatonin (M) after 70% partial hepatectomy (PH) as evidenced by ultrastructural alterations and effects on hepatocyte proliferation and apoptosis. Methods. Twenty-six male Wistar albino rats were randomized into four groups: group A (n = 8) resveratrol (R); group B (n = 8) melatonin (M); group C (n = 5) control PH; group D (n = 5) sham operated animals. The rats that received either R or M were sacrificed a week after PH. The malondialdehyde, glutathione, glutathione S-transferase, and nitric oxide levels were estimated in liver homogenates. The morphological changes were investigated using light and electron microscopy (EM). Cell proliferation was detected by immunohistochemical staining with monoclonal antibodies to Ki-67. Apoptosis was detected by the transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling method. Results. PH induced hepatic LP, decreased GSH and NO, and inhibited GST activity (P < .05). R and M completely prevented PH-induced lipid peroxidation, decreased hepatic GSH and NO levels (P < .05). The inhibition of GST activity was prevented by R (P < .05), but not with M (P > .05). In the PH group EM showed severe morphological changes: mitochondrial degeneration, vacuoles, lipid droplets, and myelin-like figures. In both the R and M groups, morphological alterations repaired protective effects more prominently in the R group. Ki-67 indices (KI) were increased in the PH group and decreased in both R and M groups (P < .001). In the M group, KI was the lowest, but the difference compared with R was not significant (P > .05). Apoptosis was slightly increased in PH, but in either the R or M groups, apoptosis was intensively increased (P < .001). Increased apoptosis was greatest in the M group and the difference compared with the R group was statistically significant (P < .05). Conclusion. R and M suppressed PH-induced oxidative damage, attenuated proliferation, and stimulated apoptosis. When we compared R and M, R showed more potent antioxidative effects and was morphologically more protective to hepatocytes. Antiproliferative effects of M were more potent. Because of their potent antioxidative effects, R and M can be effective for oxidative damage like ischemia-reperfusion injury; however, because of the adverse effects on proliferation and apoptosis more studies are needed in states in which regeneration is critical.Öğe Electrophoretic analysis of CSF proteins in patients with preeclampsia(Blackwell Publishing, 2006) Burak, F.; Kaynar, O.; Karabulut, A.

Bay; Taslidere, E.; Otlu, O.To evaluate the protective effects of Resveratrol (RES) on azoxymethane (AOM)-induced testicular damage using histopathology and biochemical analyses, 28 male rats were randomly divided into four groups. Groups were control, RES, AOM and ARES. At the end of the 7 weeks, following routine tissue processing procedure, testis sections were stained with haematoxylin-eosin and Masson's trichrome. The blood samples were taken for biochemical analysis of testosterone, total oxidative stress, total antioxidant status and oxidative stress index. Degenerative changes in the seminiferous tubules such as atrophy, loss in the number of germ cells and arrested spermatogenic cell, and increase in the connective tissue of the tunica albuginea in the groups with AOM treatment were found. RES treatment (ARES) reduced the number of affected seminiferous tubules significantly (p < .05) compared to AOM alone. The testosterone levels in AOM group were significantly lower than in the control group (p < .05). The total oxidative stress levels were significantly higher in AOM group compared to control group (p < .05). The total antioxidant status levels in ARES group were significantly higher than in the AOM group (p < .05). This study results suggest that an antioxidant like Resveratrol may be useful for decreasing the harmful effects of azoxymethane.Öğe Reduction of peritoneal adhesions by sustained and local administration of epidermal growth factor(Springer, 2008) Uguralp, S.; Akin, M.; Karabulut, A. Bay; Harma, B.; Kiziltay, Aysel; Kiran, T. R.; Hasirci, N.Previous studies have shown epidermal growth factor (EGF) facilitate peritoneal membrane healing by augmenting cell adhesion and migration. The objective of this study was to show the effect of sustained and local administration of EGF on peritoneal adhesion. Fourty-two rats were divided into six groups: control 7 and 14, gelatin 7 and 14, and EGF 7 and 14. Adhesions were created by scraping the cecum with mesh gause followed by application of absolute alcohol and placement of silk suture in the parietal peritoneum. The anterior walls of the intestines were covered with 5 x 5 cm unloaded, and EGF loaded gelatin films in the gelatin and EGF groups, respectively. The rats were killed on days 7 and 14 to assess the adhesion occurring, and for biochemical examination. The mean adhesion grades of EGF groups were significantly lower than in the other groups (P < 0.008). The mean adenosine deaminase (ADA) measurements of EGF 7 group were lower than in the gelatin 7 and control 7 groups but the difference was not significant (P > 0.008). The mean ADA measurements in the 14 days groups were as follows: control 14 < EGF 14 < gelatin 14 groups. The mean ADA measurements between 14 days groups did not significantly differ from each other (P > 0.008). The mean hydroxyproline measurements did not differ among the groups (P > 0.008). EGF decreased intestinal adhesion in our study. EGF has important roles in DNA synthesis and cell proliferation. Further studies are required to determine the exact mechanism by which EGF lowers the efficiency of intestinal adhesion.Öğe Resveratrol attenuates inflammation and stricture formation in experimental caustic esophageal burns(Springer, 2008) Uguralp, S.; Irsi, C.; Aksoy, T.; Karabulut, A. Bay; Kirimlioglu, H.; Mizrak, B.The purpose of medical treatment in the caustic esophageal burns (CEB) is to decrease inflammatory reaction and to prevent stricture formation. Resveratrol has anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic properties. The aim of this study is to investigate potential therapeutic effects of resveratrol in experimental CEB. We divided 42 male Wistar albino rats into five groups: a control group, caustic groups 4 and 28 (esophageal burns were created), and resveratrol groups 4 and 28 (esophageal burns were created and resveratrol was administered). We used 25% NaOH to form CEB following the method of Gehanno and Guedon as modified by Liu and Richardson. Animals were killed on the 4th and 28th days for biochemical and histopathological examinations. We found that the mean malondialdehyde and nitric oxide assays of the caustic groups were significantly higher than that of the resveratrol groups (P < 0.05). On the other hand, glutathione assay of the resveratrol groups was significantly higher than that of the caustic groups (P < 0.05). Histologically, edema, inflammation and necrosis were found to be significantly lower in the resveratrol 4 group compared with the caustic 4 group (P < 0.05). Submucosal and muscular collagen accumulation were found significantly lower in the resveratrol 28 group compared with the caustic 28 group (P < 0.05). We conclude that resveratrol decreased both the inflammatory reaction and the stricture formation in experimental CEB.Öğe Stressor effect of zoledronic acide in rabbit heart tissue(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2010) Karabulut, A.
