Öğe Antioxidant and antithrombotic properties of fruit, leaf, and seed extracts of the Halhal? olive (Olea europaea L.) native to the Hatay region in Turkey(Kemerovo State Univ, 2023) Batcioglu, Kadir; Kucukbay, Fatumetuzzehra; Alagoz, Mehmet Abdullah; Gunal, Selami; Yilmaztekin, YakupThe olive (Olea europaea L.) is one of the most important plants grown in many Mediterranean countries that has a high economic value. Olives, which are specific to each region, have different bioactive components. In this study, we investigated the phenolic/flavonoid contents, as well as antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antithrombotic activities of the fruit, leaf, and seed extracts obtained from the Halhali olive grown in Arsuz district of Hatay, Turkey. Antioxidant activities of the phenolic compounds found in the olive fruit, seed, and leaf extracts were determined by employing established in vitro systems. Total phenolics were determined as gallic acid equivalents, while total flavonoids were determined as quercetin equivalents. Also, we evaluated a possible interaction between oleuropein and aggregation-related glycoproteins of the platelet surface via docking studies. The extracts showed effective antioxidant activity. The seed extract had the highest phenolic content of 317.24 mu g GAE, while the fruit extract had the highest flavonoid content of 4.43 mu g. The highest potential for metal chelating activity was found in the leaf extract, with an IC50 value of 13.33 mg/mL. Also, the leaf extract showed higher levels of antioxidant, antithrombotic, and antimicrobial activity, compared to the fruit and seed extracts. The docking scores of oleuropein against the target molecules GPVI, alpha 2 beta 1, and GPIb alpha were calculated as -3.798, -4.315, and -6.464 kcal/mol, respectively. The olive fruit, leaf, and seed extracts used as experimental material in our study have remarkable antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antithrombotic potential.Öğe Effects of black mulberry, chokeberry, and elderberry extracts on the healing of burn wounds(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Zengin, Rukiye; Erdogan, Selim; Ozhan, Onural; Karaca, Elif Taslidere; Ozcinar, Semih; Yilmaztekin, Yakup; Yagin, Fatma HilalBackground: In the burn affected area of the skin, the progression or deepening of wounds is related to oxidative stress. Especially in the highly susceptible stasis zone, tissues survive to the extent that they can cope with oxidative stress. Objective: This study investigated the potential of extracts (E) derived from the fruits (F) and leaves (L) of elderberry (E), chokeberry (C), and black mulberry (M), which are rich in antioxidant properties, to enhance the recovery of the stasis zone in burn wounds. Methods: The study employed a sample size of 56 healthy rats. The comb burn model was used. The rats were administered the extracts via gastric gavage for a period of 21 days. Histological examination and biochemical analyses were conducted on biopsies taken from the stasis zone on the 3rd, 7th, and 21st days of the study. Photography was performed for macroscopic evaluations. The histological assays included the evaluation of inflammatory cell infiltration, reepithelialization, and collagenization, as well as immunohistochemical analysis of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Bioassays pertaining to the enzymatic activities of catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were performed. Results: In macroscopic evaluation, a significant difference was found between the groups in terms of stasis area (F=3.58, p2< 0.001). Post-hoc analyses showed that there was a significant difference between CFE-ELE, EFEBurn, ELE-Burn and MLE-Burn groups in terms of stasis zones (p < 0.05). However, the difference between the groups according to time was not significant (F=1.36, p = 0.16). At the end of the 21-day experiment, inflammatory cell infiltration was higher in the burn group compared to the other groups, but similar to the CFE group. Re-epithelialization was similar in the burn group compared to the fruit extract groups and significantly lower compared to the leaf extract groups. Furthermore, a significant increase in collagenization and VEGF immunoreactivity was observed in all treatment groups compared to the burn group (p < 0.05). However, no significant difference was detected between the treatment groups. The treatment groups presented a notable reduction in MDA levels in comparison to the burn group (p < 0.001). Conclusion: This study demonstrated the efficacy of fruit and leaf extracts in burn healing. Histological examination revealed that leaf extracts exhibited superior healing effects compared to fruit extracts. These results suggest that bioactive components in fruits and leaves may have different biological effects.Öğe Investigatıon of the Protective Effect of Hydrogen Sulphide Donor Sodium Hydrosulphide and Sulfurized Apricot on Experimental Acute Kidney Injury Induced by Cisplatin in Rats(Assoc Pharmaceutical Teachers India, 2026) Celikoz, Nihan; Yilmaztekin, Yakup; Cankaya, Ozlem; Taslidere, Asli; Datli, Rumeyza Hilal; Uyumlu, Ayse Burcin; Genc, Metin FikretBackground: In the present study, we aimed to investigate the protective effect of Hydrogen acute kidney injury induced by cisplatin in rats. Materials and Methods: Four groups of Wistar albino rats were formed with 10 rats in each group: Control group, Cisplatin group, Cisplatin+SA group, and Cisplatin+NaHS group. The activities of Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT), Glutathione Peroxidase (GPx) and Cystathione gamma-lyase (CSE), and the levels of Malondialdehyde (MDA), Glutathione (GSH) and total GSH were measured. Creatinine, urea, Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) were also measured. Results: CAT activity increased in the cisplatin+SA and cisplatin+NaHS groups. CSE activity increased in the cisplatin+NaHS group. MDA levels increased in the cisplatin and cisplatin+NaHS groups. This increase was also observed in SOD and GPx activities but was not statistically significant. Serum ALT, AST, creatinine, and urea levels were higher in the cisplatin group. ADP activity was lower in the cisplatin group. The histological findings support the biochemical results obtained in our study. Red/total GSH was higher in the cisplatin, cisplatin+SA, and cisplatin+NaHS groups. Conclusion: SA and NaHS would have beneficial effects in preventing cisplatin-induced kidney damage.Öğe Protective effect of Lycium barbarum on renal injury induced by acute pancreatitis in rats(Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2022) Dogan, Tugba; Batcioglu, Kadir; Kustepe, Elif Kayhan; Uyumlu, Ayse Burcin; Yilmaztekin, YakupBackground: Lycium barbarum (LB) is a plant species that is well known in Chinese traditional medicine and is also considered a nutrient, belonging to the Solanaceae family, also called goji berry or wolfberry. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the protective efficacy of LB, in kidney damage caused by acute pancreatitis (AP). Materials and Methods: In the study, we used 36 female Wistar albino rats (12 in each group) which were divided into three groups: Control, cerulein (100 mu g/kg b. wt. intraperitonally) and Cerulein + LB (6 mg/ml/day gastric gavage) group. Serum lipase, Interleukin (IL)-1, and IL-6 levels were measured. Superoxide dismutase, catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase enzyme activity assays and 8-hydroxy deoxyguanosine, malondialdehyde (MDA), and protein levels were measured in kidney tissue samples. In addition, histopathological analysis was performed in kidney tissue samples. Results: According to the findings, in the AP model created with Cerulein, administration of LB plant extract decreased oxidative stress and damage caused by AP in the kidney tissue and partially suppressed the inflammatory reactions in the tissue. Conclusion: According to the findings, in the AP model created with Cerulein, administration of LB extract decreased oxidative stress and in kidney damage caused by AP.Öğe Targeting the PANoptosome Using Necrostatin-1 Reduces PANoptosis and Protects the Kidney Against Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in a Rat Model of Controlled Experimental Nonheart-Beating Donor(Elsevier Science Inc, 2024) Dokur, Mehmet; Uysal, Erdal; Kucukdurmaz, Faruk; Altinay, Serdar; Polat, Sait; Batcioglu, Kadir; Yilmaztekin, YakupPurpose. Reducing renal ischemia is crucial for the function and survival of grafts from non- heartbeat donors, as it leads to inflammatory responses and tubulointerstitial damage. The primary concern with organs from nonheartbeat donors is the long warm ischemia period and reperfusion injury following renal transplantation. This study had two main goals; one goal is to determine how Necrostatin-1 targeting the PANoptosome affects PANoptosis in the nonheartbeating donor rat model. The other goal is to fi nd out if Necrostatin-1 can protect the kidney from ischemic injury for renal transplantation surgery. Methods. Twenty-four rats were grouped randomly as control and Necrostatin-1 in this experimental animal study, and we administered 1.65 mg/kg of Necrostatin-1 intraperitoneally to the experimental group for 30 minutes before cardiac arrest. We removed the rats' left kidneys and measured various oxidative stress marker measures such as malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase, catalase, GPx, and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine levels. We then subjected the tissues to immunohistochemical analysis, electron microscopy, and histopathological analysis. Findings. The Necrostatin-1 group had a lower total tubular injury score (P < .001) and less Caspase-3, gasdermin D, and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein expression. Additionally, the apoptotic index of the study group was lower (P < .001). Furthermore, the study group had higher levels of superoxide dismutase and GPx (P < .05), whereas malondialdehyde levels were reduced (P = .009). Electron microscopy also revealed a significant improvement in tissue structure in the Necrostatin-1 group. Conclusion. Necrostatin-1 protects against ischemic acute kidney injury in nonheart-beating donor rats by inhibiting PANoptosis via the blockade of RIPK1. As a result of this, Necrostatin1 may offer novel opportunities for protecting donor kidneys from renal ischemia-reperfusion injury during transplantation in patients with end-stage kidney disease requiring a renal transplantation.
