    Aim: In this study, we aim to investigate the effects of supplementary Grape Seed Extract (GSE) and Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) on fracture healing, oxidant and anti-oxidant system in experimental mandible fractures.Material and Methods: 48 Wistar Albino rats (adult male, n=48) were used in our study. For all the subjects, a vertical fracture line through molar teeth in right mandibles was created and internally fixed using a four-hole microplate and four micro screws. Firstly, these subjects were randomly divided into 4 main groups (Control, GSE, LLLT, GSE+LLLLT) of 12 animals each, and then these were individually separated into two sub-groups of 7th and 21st days. The number of groups (n=6) was 8 in total. GSE of 300 mg/kg/day were provided to the subjects before they were sacrificed. LLLT of 23 J/cm2 was administered to two different points along with the fracture line at intervals of 48 hours for 7 days in the 7th day sub-groups and for 14 days in the 21st day sub-groups. After the procedure, while biochemical values such as TAS, TOS and OSI are measured; histopathologically it was examined in terms of capillary number and width, inflammatory cell, fibroblast count, collagen fibers, osteoblast count, ossification and mature bone formations.Results: For biochemical analyses, there was statistically significant difference only in TAS values on either the 7th or 21st day for the groups. Histological analyses showed that mandibular fracture healing were significantly better in the GSE and GSE+LLLT groups compared to the control group. The group of only LLLT had limited recovery while the combination of GSE+LLLT was the best for ossification.Conclusions: It is concluded that GSE may be one of the potential methods to accelerate fracture healings in mandibular fractures common in oral and maxillofacial surgery clinic and thus help patients recover in shorter time, and however LLLT can have positive effects on the process of ossification and recovery only when combined with the extract, which may result in better outcomes in clinical use.

    Oxidative stress in otosclerosis
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017) Baysal, Elif; Gulsen, Secaattin; Aytac, Ismail; Celenk, Fatih; Ensari, Nuray; Taysi, Seyithan; Binici, Habib
    Objectives: Otosclerosis is a disease involving abnormal bone turnover in the human otic capsule that results in hearing loss. Several hypotheses have been suggested for the etiopathogenesis of otosclerosis; however, its etiology remains unclear. Methods: This study evaluated the correlation between otosclerosis and levels of paraoxonase-1 (PON1), arylesterase, total antioxidant status, total oxidant status (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI), total sulfhydryl (-SH) groups, lipid hydroperoxide, and ceruloplasmin in the serum of otosclerosis patients and healthy subjects with respect to oxidative stress. Results: In our study, TOS and OSI levels were higher in the otosclerosis patients than in the controls. The PON1 levels showed that oxidative stress was severe, and as a result, antioxidants were consumed and depleted. Discussion: When an imbalance between oxygen free radical production and antioxidative defense mechanisms occurs, reactive oxygen species levels may increase, which in turn may damage cells and tissues through the peroxidation of phospholipid membrane structures. The body initially responds with increased antioxidant production, but if the oxidative stress is severe, decreased antioxidant levels may result. This study reports expression levels of oxidative stress species in otosclerosis patients.

    Radioprotective effect of thymoquinone on salivary gland of rats exposed to total cranial irradiation
    (Wiley, 2017) Akyuz, Mehmet; Taysi, Seyithan; Baysal, Elif; Demir, Elif; Alkis, Hilal; Akan, Muslum; Binici, Habip
    Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the radioprotective effects of thymoquinone against radiation-induced damage in the salivary glands of rats exposed to total cranial gamma irradiation. Methods: Thirty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups to test the radioprotective effectiveness of thymoquinone by intraperitoneal injection. An appropriate control group was also studied. Biochemical parameters in liver tissue of rats were determined by spectrophotometer. Results: Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), total (enzymatic plus nonenzymatic) superoxide scavenger activity (TSSA), nonenzymatic superoxide scavenger activity (NSSA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities were significantly decreased, whereas xanthine oxidase, nitric oxide synthase activities, malondialdehyde, nitric oxide, and peroxynitrite levels were significantly increased in the irradiation group when compared to the control and sham control groups. Conclusion: Results showed that thymoquinone reduces oxidative and nitrosative stress parameters and has antioxidant effects and a free radical scavenging activity.
