The effect of hyperbaric oxygen treatment on the renal functions in septic rats: Relation to oxidative damage
Edremitlioglu, M; Kilic, D; Oter, S; Kisa, U; Korkmaz, A; Coskun, O; Bedir, O (Springer, 2005)Purpose. To investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment on renal functions and damage in septic rats. Methods. The animals were divided into four groups, each containing ten animals: control, hyperbaric ... -
Effects of hyperbaric oxygen treatment on liver functions, oxidative status and histology in septic rats
Oter, S; Edremitlioglu, M; Korkmaz, A; Coskun, O; Kilic, D; Kisa, U; Bilgic, H (Springer, 2005)Objective: The liver is thought to be responsible for multiple organ failure during sepsis. Increase in tissue oxygen consumption is a major component of the septic response. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy provides more ... -
Effects of losartan treatment on T-cell activities and plasma leptin concentrations in primary hypertension
Sonmez, A; Kisa, U; Uckaya, G; Eyileten, T; Comert, B; Koc, B; Ozata, M (Sage Publications Ltd, 2001)Recent evidence shows that leptin may contribute to elevated blood pressure (BP) and interact with die renin-angiotensin-aldosterone and cellular immune systems. Altered T-cell activities and changes in T-cell si ratios ... -
The effects of topotecan on lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzyme levels in rabbit liver tissue
Kisa, U; Caglayan, O; Kacmaz, M (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2005)Background: To evaluate the possible influence of topotecan therapy on lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzymes in rabbit liver tissue, the levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and activities of the ... -
Efficacy of topotecan treatment on antioxidant enzymes and TBA-RS levels in submandibular glands of rabbits: An experimental study
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of topotecan (Hycamtin), a topoisomerase I inhibiting anticancer agent, on antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px) and TBA-RS values of the submandibular ... -
Free radical-induced damage in experimental peripheral nerve injection injury
Peripheral nerve injury secondary to injection of therapeutic agents is well-documented. Until recently, the precise mechanism of injury has been obscure; even today, the treatment of these nerve injection injuries remains ... -
Human hepatocyte growth factor levels in patients undergoing thoracic operations
Dikmen, E; Kara, M; Kisa, U; Atinkaya, C; Han, S; Sakinci, U (European Respiratory Soc Journals Ltd, 2006)Human hepatocyte growth factor (hHGF) is the most potent mitogen identified for alveolar type II cells, and may have other important functions in the repair of the alveolar epithelium and compensatory lung growth. A study ... -
Ischaemia-reperfusion injury of rat ovary and the effects of vitamin C, mannitol and verapamil
BACKGROUND: In this prospective controlled study, the aim was to examine the effects of vitamin C, mannitol and verapamil on adnexial ischaemia-reperfusion injury in the rat ovary. METHODS: Thirty-six female Wistar rats ... -
Testicular tissue nitric oxide and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance levels: evaluation with respect to the pathogenesis of varicocele
Kisa, U; Basar, MM; Ferhat, M; Yilmaz, E; Basar, H; Caglayan, O; Batislam, E (Springer, 2004)The aim of the present study is to evaluate tissue nitric oxide (NO) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) levels in testicular tissue, and to determine their relationship with seminal parameters in order to ...
