Objective(s): The aim of this study is to determine the therapeutic effects of pomegranate seed oil, which is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, on ovarian-ischemia and reperfusion injury in rats.Materials and Methods: Fifty-six  female albino Wistar rats were divided into 7 equal groups. Group 1; Sham Operation, Group 2; Ischemia, Group 3; Ischemia + Reperfusion, Group 4; Isch...

Objective-Ovarian torsion must be diagnosed and treated as much early as possible. The aim of the present study was to investigate effects of interaperitoneal administration of curcumin on ischemia-reperfusion injury in ovaries. Design- Experimental Study Animals- Twent-four healthy female Wistar rats Procedures- Twent-four healthy female Wistar rats weighing approximately 260...

abstract introduction: resent studies have been shown beneficial effects of hyperoxia pretreatment against ischemia-reperfusion injury in different organs. the aim of the present study was to investigate early and late effects of normobaric hyperoxia (≥95% o2) pretreatment on ischemia-reperfusion injuries in isolated rat hearts. methods: following 60 and 180 minutes of hyperoxia, rat hearts wer...

background: ischemia reperfusion (ir) is the main pathology of torsion of testis and it is a common urologic emergency. there is some evidence that shows oxytocin (ot) plays role in ischemia reperfusion. objective: to evaluate this hypothesis that ot can decrease germ cell apoptotic index in testis under acute ischemia reperfusion in a rat model. materials and methods: 20 adult rats were random...

Introduction: Using brief episodes of ischemia and reperfusion (IR) prior to a more sustained IR insult – ischemic preconditioning (IPC) – can reduce IR injury of the heart, brain and many other tissues. The purpose of present study was to investigate the effect of 2min ischemic periods on subsequent rat renal IR injury. Methods: Male rat's renal IR injury was investigated in a right nephrectom...

ischemia-reperfusion injury is the tissue damage caused when blood supply returns to the tissue after a period of ischemia or lack of oxygen. ischemia-reperfusion brain injury initiates an inflammatory response involving the expression of adhesion molecules and cytokines. twenty–four male wistar rats (250-300 g body wt) were used in this study. the animals were divided into four groups of 6 rat...

Objective(s):Bradykinin is a part of the kinin-kallikreinsystem which is involved in ischemia-reperfusion injury via B1 and B2 receptors.Noscapine is a non-competitive antagonist of bradykinin receptors. Noscapine has been reported to to be able to protect some organs against ischemia-reperfusion injury but its effect on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (RIR) in rats is unknown. Therefore, the...

objective(s): intestinal ischemia-reperfusion is a major problem, which may lead to multiorgan failure and death. the aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effects of dexmedetomidine on cell proliferation, antioxidant system, cell death, and structural integrity in intestinal injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion in rats. materials and methods: animals were randomized into three gro...
