Öğe Chemopreventive efficacy of juniper berry oil (Juniperus communis L.) on azoxymethane-induced colon carcinogenesis in rat(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Yaman, Turan; Uyar, Ahmet; Komuroglu, Ahmet Ufuk; Keles, Omer Faruk; Yener, ZabitThe aim of this study was to investigate the chemopreventive effects of juniper berry (JB) oil on azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon cancer in rats. Thirty-two male Wistar albino rats were allocated into four groups: Control, AOM, AOM?+?JB, and JB groups. Whereas the control group was fed with standard pellet feed, the AOM and AOM?+?JB groups were administered of AOM (15?mg/kg body weight) subcutaneously once every 2 weeks for 10?weeks. AOM?+?JB and JB groups additionally received JB oil (100??l/kg) orally. At the end of the 16-week experimental period, blood and tissue samples were obtained from the rats following necropsy. The macroscopic findings showed that the application of JB oil significantly decreased adenoma and adenocarcinoma formation both numerically and dimensionally. Immunohistochemically, CEA, COX-2, and Ki-67 immune-expressions decreased, and the immune-expression of caspase-3 increased in AOM?+?JB treated rats. Additionally, JB oil supplementation ameliorated antioxidant defense systems and lipid peroxidation within the colon tissue of AOM?+?JB treated rats. These results reveal that the JB oil acted as a chemopreventive dietary agent, inhibiting cell proliferation and COX-2 expression and inducing apoptosis, resulting in a significant reduction in colon tumor formation.Öğe Congenital extraneural hemangioblastoma in a lamb(Sage Publications Inc, 2019) Yaman, Turan; Karasu, Abdullah; Uyar, Ahmet; Kuscu, Yagmur; Keles, Omer FarukA 1-mo-old Ivesi male lamb was presented with 2 large red masses on the skin of the left ear. The tumors were removed using gentle dissection and submitted for histologic evaluation. The tumors consisted of numerous thin-walled capillaries lined by endothelial cells and nests of stromal cells. Immunohistochemically, the endothelial cells were positive for CD45, and the stromal cells were positive for neuron-specific enolase. GFAP-positive cells were occasionally present within the tumor. Endothelial and stromal cells were negative for S100, CD34, CD31, and factor VIII-related antigen. The tumor had strong gross, microscopic, and immunohistochemical similarities with human extraneural hemangioblastoma.Öğe Detection of bovine respiratory syncytial virus, Pasteurella multocida, and Mannheimia haemolytica by immunohistochemical method in naturally-infected cattle(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2018) Yaman, Turan; Buyubayram, Huseyin; Ozyildiz, Zafer; Terzi, Funda; Uyar, Ahmet; Keles, Omer Faruk; Ozsoy, Sule YurdagulIntroduction: The aim of this study was to determine the predisposing effect of bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) on Pasteurella spp. infection in naturally-induced pneumonia in cattle by immunohistochemical labelling. Material and Methods: Lungs of cattle slaughtered in the slaughterhouse were examined macroscopically, and 100 pneumonic samples were taken. The samples were fixed in 10% neutral formalin and embedded in paraffin by routine methods. Sections 5 mu m in thickness were cut. The streptavidin-peroxidase method (ABC) was used to stain the sections for immuno-histochemical examination. Results: BRSV antigens were found in the cytoplasm of epithelial cells of bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoles and within inflammatory cell debris and inflammatory exudate in bronchial lumens. Pasteurella spp. antigens were detected in the cytoplasm of the epithelial cells of bronchi and bronchioles, and in cells in the lumens of bronchi and bronchioles. Eleven cases were positive for only one pathogen (six for BRSV and five for Pasteurella spp.), while 35 cases were positive for 2 pathogens: BRSV plus P. multocida (n = 21) or M. haemolytica (n = 14). Conclusion: The presence of high levels of BRSV in dual infections indicates that BSRV may be the main pneumonia-inducing agent and an important predisposing factor for the formation of Pasteurella spp. infections in cattle naturally afflicted with pneumonia.Öğe Evaluation with endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) immunoreactivity of the protective role of astaxanthin on hepatorenal injury of remote organs caused by ischaemia reperfusion of the lower extremities(Termedia Publishing House Ltd, 2020) Uyar, Ahmet; Yaman, TuranIntroduction: Ischemia and following reperfusion triggers local and systemic damage with the involvement of free oxygen radicals and inflammatory mediators. Although blood flow saves extremity from necrosis,multi organ dysfunction may progress and cause death of the patient. Aim: The study aims to examine the effect of astaxanthin (AST) on the prevention of remote tissue injury resulting from lower extremity ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R). To elucidate the potential hepatoprotective and renoprotective effects of AST, in addition to histopathological findings, the intrahepatic and intrarenal kinetics of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) during I/R were determined by using the immunohistochemical method. Material and methods: Twenty-eight male Wistar albino rats were divided into four groups. For the control group, only the anaesthesia procedure (2 h) was conducted without I/R. In the I/R group, 2 h of reperfusion was conducted following ischaemia under anaesthesia. For the I/R group + AST, 7 days prior to ischaemia, 125 mg/kg AST was given with gavage, and 2 h of ischaemia and 2 h of reperfusion were conducted under anaesthesia. Following necropsy, liver and kidney tissue samples were fixed in 10% buffered formalin for 48 h for histopathological and immunohistochemical investigation. Results: The histological analysis revealed that severe I/R hepatorenal injury such as inflammatory cell infiltration, dilatation in sinusoids and lumen of tubuli, congestion in glomerular capillaries, degeneration in hepatocyte and epithelial cells of tubuli, and necrosis was ameliorated by AST. Immunohistochemical studies showed that the I/R-induced elevation in eNOS expression was reduced by AST treatment. Conclusions: In the case of acute lower extremity I/R, AST decreased the ischaemic injury in liver and renal tissues by protecting the microcirculation and providing a cytoprotective effect with vasodilatation.Öğe Inhibitory effect of stinging nettle (Urtica dioica L.) extract on body weight gain in rats on a high-fat diet(Termedia Publishing House Ltd, 2024) Kacak, Kenan; Yaman, Turan; Uyar, Ahmet; Komuroglu, Ahmet UfukIntroduction: The leaves and seeds of Urtica dioica (UD) are used in folk treatments for many diseases. Anticarcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiallergenic properties of UD have been reported. Aim: To uncover the effects of nettle seed (Urtica dioica; UD) extract on body weight gain in rats on a high -fat diet (HFD). Material and methods: Male Wistar albino rats (n = 32) were divided into 4 groups, comprising a control group, a group that received a HFD (HFD group), a group that received UD extracts (UD group), and a group that received a HFD as well as UD extracts (HFD + UD group). UD extracts were given a daily dose of 300 mg/kg of body weight orally for 75 days. Results: The HFD led to weight gain that was partially moderated by the UD extract. Histopathological findings in the HFD + UD group were uniformly significantly lower than those in the HFD group. Serum alanine transaminase, alanine aminotransferase, triglyceride, and low -density lipoprotein levels were significantly higher in the HFD group than in the HFD + UD group, and the HDL levels were lower in the HFD group than in the control group and the HFD + UD group. Conclusions: The cholesterol levels were discovered to be highest in the HFD + UD group. Therefore, it was concluded that the UD extract did not completely protect the rats against body weight gain.Öğe IS METHOTREXATE-INDUCED TESTICULAR DAMAGE PREVENTABLE USING NETTLE SEED EXTRACT: A HISTOPATHOLOGICAL, IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL, BIOCHEMICAL AND SPERMATOLOGICAL EXAMINATION(Parlar Scientific Publications (P S P), 2018) Uyar, Ahmet; Yaman, Turan; Dogan, Abdulahad; Uslu, Sema; Keles, Omer Faruk; Yener, Zabit; Celik, IsmailIn the study 32 Wistar albino rats were divided into four group as control (Group Control, n=8), methotrexate (Group MTX, n=8), MTX + UDS (Group MTX+UDS, n=8) and Urtica dioica seed extract (UDS) (Group UDS, n=8). After the trial, blood and post-necropsy testicular tissue samples were taken. Histopathological examinations showed that methotrexate had an adverse impact on spermatogenesis by damaging testicles; however, such damages were substantially decreased in the Group MTX+UDS. In the immunohistochemical examinations glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPx1) immunoreactive areas was higher in the Group MTX + UDS compared to the Group MTX. Biochemical examinations revealed that the level of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), glutathione S-transferase (GST) and catalase (CAT) enzymes levels statistically significantly differenced (p<0.001) in the Group MTX compared to the control, UDS and MTX+UDS groups. There were significant (p<0.05) differences the Group MTX from Group MTX+UDS. such as density, motility, dead-live sperm rate and abnormal sperm rate. Our study results showed that UDS prevented the damage occurred in the testicles according to histopathological, immunohistochemical, biochemical and spermatological findings.Öğe Nobiletin alleviates methotrexate-induced hepatorenal toxicity in rats(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Kazak, Filiz; Uyar, Ahmet; Coskun, Pinar; Yaman, TuranWe investigated the possible ameliorative effects of nobiletin (NBL) against methotrexate (MTX)-induced hepatorenal toxicity in rats. Twenty-eight Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into four groups, namely: Control; MTX (administered 20 mg/kg MTX); MTX+NBL (administered 20 mg/kg MTX and 10 mg/kg NBL per day); and NBL (administered 10 mg/kg/day NBL). Histopathological, immunohistochemical and biochemical analyses were performed on the kidney and liver tissues of rats at the end of the study. MTX caused renal toxicity, as indicated by increases in malondialdehyde (MDA) and caspase-3, as well as decreases in reduced glutathione (GSH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT) and B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2). MTX also caused hepatotoxicity, as indicated by increases in 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), MDA and caspase-3 and decrease in interleukin 10 (IL-10), GSH, total antioxidant capacity, GPx, G6PD, CAT and Bcl-2. MTX caused histopathological changes in kidney and liver tissues indicating tissue and cellular damage. Administration of NBL concurrently with methotrexate reduced oxidative stress, inflammatory and apoptotic signs, and prevented kidney and liver damage caused by methotrexate. We consider NBL has attenuating and ameliorating effects on methotrexate-induced hepatorenal toxicity.Öğe Protective effects of silymarin on methotrexate-induced damages in rat testes(Univ Sao Paulo, Conjunto Quimicas, 2018) Yaman, Turan; Uyar, Ahmet; Kaya, Mehmet Salih; Keles, Omer Faruk; Uslu, Baris Atalay; Yener, ZabitThe present study aimed to investigate the protective effects of silymarin (SMN), an antioxidant, on methotrexate (MTX)-induced damage in rat testes. Thirty-two Wistar albino rats were divided into four groups (n = 8): control, MTX (20 mg/kg, i.p. on days 1 and 5), SMN (200 mg/kg, orally), and MTX + SMN (20 mg/kg, i.p. on days 1 and 5 and SMN 200 mg/kg orally) groups. At the end of the 6-week trial period, histopathological, immunohistochemical, biochemical, and spermatological analyses were performed on testes tissues. Histopathologically, MTX-induced damage, including depletion of germ cell and loos of spermatozoa, was significantly improved with SMN treatment. Immunohistochemically, the immunoreactivity of glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPx1) and manganese superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) were detected more intensely in the MTX + SMN group than in the MTX group. Biochemical examinations revealed that SMN supplementation decreased the lipid peroxidation and increased enzymatic antioxidants in the SMN-treated rats. Spermatologically, significant differences were found in the density, motility, dead-to-live sperm ratio, and abnormal sperm rate in the MTX + SMN group compared to the MTX group. In conclusion, SMN seems to have protective effects as an antioxidant against MTX-induced damage in rat testes.Öğe The Protective Role of Urtica dioica Seed Extract Against Azoxymethane-Induced Colon Carcinogenesis in Rats(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Uyar, Ahmet; Dogan, Abdulahad; Yaman, Turan; Keles, Omer Faruk; Yener, Zabit; Celik, Ismail; Alkan, Elif EbruThe aim of this study was to investigate the protective role of Urtica dioica seed (UDS) extract against azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon carcinogenesis in rats. Thirty-two male Wistar albino rats were divided into four groups: Control, AOM, AOM + UDS, and UDS. The AOM and AOM + UDS groups were induced by AOM (15 mg/kg body weight) subcutaneously once a week for 10 weeks. AOM + UDS and UDS groups additionally received fed with pellets included 30 ml/kg UDS extract. At the end of the trial, blood and colon tissue samples were taken from the rats following necropsy. The gross and histopathological findings revealed that the administration of UDS extract significantly decreased lesions including aberrant cript foci, adenoma, and adenocarcinoma formation both numerically and dimensionally. Immunohistochemically, slight CEA and COX-2, strong Caspase-3 immune-expressions were detected in the group AOM + UDS compared to AOM group. Biochemical examinations indicated that a markedly increase in the malondialdehyde and fluctuated antioxidant defense system constituents levels such as reduced glutathione, glutathione s-transferase, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase were restored in AOM + UDS group. These results reveal that the UDS may act as a chemopreventive dietary agent, inducing apoptosis, resulting in a significant reduction of colon carcinogenesis.Öğe Reduction of hepatorenal and pancreatic damage by Ferula elaeochytris extract in STZ induced diabetic rats(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Uyar, Ahmet; Yaman, Turan; Keles, Omer Faruk; Alkan, Elif Ebru; Demir, Abdulbaki; Celik, Ismail; Yener, ZabitThe therapeutic potential and antioxidant capacity of Ferula elaeochytris extract (FE) in the liver, kidney and pancreas of rats with diabetes induced by streptozotocin (STZ) was assessed using biochemistry, histopathology and immunohistochemistry. Forty adult Wistar albino male rats were divided randomly into five groups of eight rats each. The normal control (NC) group was untreated. The diabetes control (DC) group was treated with STZ to induce diabetes. The diabetes + acarbose group (DAC) was treated with STZ, then with acarbose daily for 28 days. The diabetes + FE (DFE) group was treated with STZ, then FE daily for 28 days. DC rats had inflammatory cell infiltration, hydropic degeneration and necrosis, whereas the DFE rats exhibited nearly normal histology. Insulin immunostaining in the pancreatic beta cells was decreased in the DC group compared to the NC group, whereas the DFE group was similar to the NC group. Many serum biomarkers of damage to liver, kidneys or pancreas were elevated in the DC group compared to the NC group; these biomarkers were decreased in the DFE group. The DC group exhibited increased malondialdehyde levels and decreased levels of the antioxidant defense system constituents compared to the NC group. The level of biomarkers the DFE group was close to the NC group. FE exhibited a protective effect against tissue damage owing to its antioxidant activities and to its ability to effect regeneration of beta-cells in STZ induced diabetic rats.Öğe A subvulvar leiomyosarcoma in a Simmental cow-a case report(Univ Zagreb Vet Faculty, 2022) Uyar, Ahmet; Duz, Erkan; Keles, Omer F.; Yaman, Turan; Yener, ZabitIn this case, a mass located subcutaneously in the perineal subvulvar region of a six-year-old Simmental cow was examined clinically, pathomorphologically and immunohistochemically. Macroscopically, the solitary, whitish yellow-tumor mass was 19x15x6 cm in size, weighed 1610 grams, and had a lobular structure with a few small cystic formations in the section. Histopathological examination revealed that the tumor parenchyma had smooth muscle-like cells with abundant cytoplasm, pleomorphic cells with blunt-ended or cigar-shaped nuclei, anisocytosis, anisokaryosis and karyomegaly. Immunohistochemically, strong positive expression for ??-SMA, vimentin, Ki67 and slight positive for desmin were found, while immulolabeling for pancytokeratin (AE1/AE3), S-100, CD31 and CD34 were negative. In conclusion, on the basis of these findings, the tumor was diagnosed as leiomyosarcoma.
