    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018) Akkurt, Ibrahim; Cetin, Cansel; Erdogan, Ahmet Melih; Dincel, Gungor Cagdas; Ceylan, Asli Fahriye; Kisa, Ucler; Bakar, Bulent
    Objectives: No valid treatment modality that will repair stroke damage and provide neurological recovery has yet been identified in literature. Studies demonstrated that adequate quality of life could be provided if post-stroke pain could be treated sufficiently and timely. Besides its pain relief effects, tramadol has oedema-reducing and anti-inflammatory properties. With these in mind, this study investigated the influence of tramadol in acute and/or chronic ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Methods: Putting aside the Control group, 23 Wistar albino rats were distributed to four groups to investigate the acute (Sham-A, TR-A) and chronic (Sham-C, TR-C) periods of I/R injury, and temporary aneurysm clips were applied to their internal carotid arteries for 30 min. Four hours after clippage, tramadol was administered to animals of TR-A and TR-C groups intraperitoneally. After sacrificing all animals, pyknotic and necrotic neuronal cells in hippocampal cornu ammonis (CA)1, CA2, CA3 and parietal cortical regions were counted, and perivascular oedema, intercellular organization disorder (IOD) and inflammatory cell infiltration were scaled histopathologically. Additionally, tissue interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-10, malondialdehyde, nitric oxide, tumour necrosis factor-alpha, caspase-3, beclin-1, Atg12, LC3II/LC3I levels were measured biochemically. Results: Tramadol could minimize perivascular oedema, IOD, parietal and hippocampal neuronal necrosis, inflammatory cell infiltration in both periods of I/R injury histopathologically. Apart from inhibiting apoptosis and enhancing autophagy, tramadol had no influence on any other biochemical result. Discussion: Tramadol can ameliorate the histopathological structure of ischaemic tissue in both periods of I/R injury in rat. We suggest further research investigating various dosages with different administration methods of tramadol in stroke should be conducted by adopting different explorative techniques.

    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023) Karagedik, Mustafa Ilker; Yuksel, Ulas; Kartal, Bahar; Ceylan, Asli Fahriye; Ogden, Mustafa; Bakar, Bulent
    Introduction: Except for methylprednisolone, there is no current low-cost and low-side-effect drug/barrier method to prevent epidural fibrosis after spine surgery. However, the use of methylprednisolone has led to substantial controversy because of its serious side effects on wound healing. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of enalapril and oxytocin on preventing the development of epidural fibrosis in a rat laminectomy model.Materials: Under sedation anesthesia, T9, T10, and T11 laminectomy was performed on 24 Wistar Albino male rats. The animals were then separated into four groups; Sham group (only laminectomy was performed; n = 6), MP group (laminectomy was performed and 10 mg/kg/day methylprednisolone was administered intraperitoneally (ip) for 14 days; n = 6), ELP group (laminectomy was performed and 0.75 mg/kg/day enalapril was administered ip for 14 days; n = 6), OXT group (laminectomy was performed and 160 & mu;g/kg/day oxytocin was administered ip for 14 days; n = 6). Four weeks after the laminectomy, all the rats were euthanised, and the spines were removed for histopathological, immunohistochemical, and biochemical examinations.Results: Histopathological examinations revealed that the degree of epidural fibrosis (X2=14.316, p = 0.003), collagen density (X2=16.050, p = 0.001), and fibroblast density (X2=17.500, p = 0.001) was higher in the Sham group and lower in the MP, ELP, and OXT groups. Immunohistochemical examinations showed that collagen type 1 immunoreactivity was higher in the Sham group and lower in the MP, ELP, and OXT groups (F = 54.950, p < 0.001). The highest level of & alpha;-smooth muscle actin immunoreactivity was seen in the Sham and OXT groups, and the lowest was in the MP and ELP groups (F = 33.357, p < 0.001). Biochemical analysis revealed that tissue levels of TNF-& alpha;, TGF-& beta;, IL-6, CTGF, caspase-3, p-AMPK, pmTOR, and mTOR/pmTOR were higher in the Sham group and lower in MP, ELP, and OXT groups (p < 0.05). The GSH/GSSG levels were lower in the Sham group and higher in the other three groups (X2=21.600, p < 0.001).Conclusion: The study results showed that enalapril and oxytocin, which are known to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-apoptotic, and autophagy-related regenerative properties, could reduce the development of epidural fibrosis after laminectomy in rats.

    Evaluation of the therapeutic effects of calcium dobesilate in sciatic nerve crush injury in rats
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2022) Akkaya, Suleyman; Ogden, Mustafa; Kartal, Bahar; Say, Bahar; Ceylan, Asli Fahriye; Akkaya, Merva Aydemir; Bakar, Bulent
    Introduction: Proinflammatory cytokines released from nerve endings and surrounding injured tissue af-ter nerve damage can prolong the inflammation process, delay nerve healing or result in poor quality nerve healing. In this case, due to the loss of function in the muscles innervated by the damaged nerve, the patient may have neurological and functional difficulties which may reduce the patient's quality of life and create an economic burden. Although the attempts of many pharmacological agents to heal crush injury of peripheral nerves have been recorded in literature, a drug that can provide adequate recovery of the crushed nerve and can be applied in daily life has not been defined as yet. This study aimed to assess the effects of calcium dobesilate on sciatic nerve crush injury in a rat model. Methods: A total of 26 male Wistar albino rats were separated into four groups as follows: CONTROL group (healthy subjects, n = 6); SHAM group (crush injury was created, n = 6); MP group (after created crush injury, methylprednisolone was administered, n = 7); and CAD group (after created crush injury, cal-cium dobesilate was administered, n = 7). A crush injury was created, then the electrophysiological find-ings and sciatic nerve functional index (SFI) were recorded before euthanasia. After the euthanasia of all the rats, samples of the crushed nerve and gastrocnemius muscle were evaluated histopathologically, immunohistochemically, and biochemically. Results: Both pharmacological agents were histopathologically effective in axon regeneration and repair. Calcium dobesilate did not preserve total muscle mass but was seen to prevent atrophy microscopically. Immunohistochemistry and biochemistry results showed that calcium dobesilate and methylprednisolone had anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-apoptotic, and anti-autophagic activity in the crushed sciatic nerve. Neither calcium dobesilate nor methylprednisolone improved the nerve conductance level. SFI val-ues obtained on day 30 from the CAD group were numerically closer to the values of the healthy animals but not at a statistically significant level. Conclusion: The study results demonstrated that calcium dobesilate could suppress inflammatory pro-cesses and provide histopathological and functional improvements in the injured nerve in rats. Therefore, further clinical studies are recommended to investigate in detail the therapeutic effects of calcium dobe-silate on peripheral nerve crush injury. (c) 2022 Elsevier Ltd.

    Investigation of therapeutic effects of calcium dobesilate in cerebral hypoxia/ reperfusion injury in rats
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2023) Ozdemir, Alemiddin; Ogden, Mustafa; Kartal, Bahar; Ceylan, Asli Fahriye; Yuksel, Ulas; Bakar, Bulent
    Objectives: Cerebral stroke is a serious clinical condition in which oxidative stress, inflammation, necrosis, apoptosis, and autophagy play important roles in its pathogenesis. This study investigated the neuroprotective and healing effects of calcium dobesilate (CD) on cerebral hypoxia/reperfusion injury in rats. Methods: Forty Wistar albino male rats, each weighing 300–350 g, were separated into the Control group (no surgery and no pharmacological agent was administered); Sham-A group (only surgery was performed); DBL-A group (surgery was performed and CD 100 mg/kg/day was administered intraperitoneally for 3 days); Sham-C group (only surgery was performed); and DBL-C group (surgery was performed and 100 mg/kg/day CD was administered intraperitoneally for 10 days). Under sedation anesthesia, the bilateral common carotid arteries of all rats except the Control group were clipped for 30 min. After 4 h, the CD was given to the relevant groups, and then, all subjects were euthanized at scheduled times. The brain of each animal was removed for histopathological (hematoxylin and eosin staining), immunohistochemical (beclin-1, anti-MHC class II and anti-CD-68 staining), and biochemical (TNF, IL-1?, IL-6, caspase-3, GSH/GSSG, malondialdehyde, protein carbonyl, LC3II/LC3I, and beclin-1 levels) evaluations. Results: It was observed that CD could reduce necrosis and mitigate polarization of microglia to the M1 phenotype, autophagy, free oxygen radicals, protein carbonylation, lipid peroxidation, IL-1?, IL6, TNF, caspase-3, beclin-1, and LC3II/LC3I levels in acute and chronic periods of hypoxia/reperfusion injury. Conclusion: From these results, it was observed that CD treatment could reduce neuronal necrosis and create anti-inflammatory, anti-edema, anti-oxidant, anti-apoptotic, and anti-autophagic effects in hypoxia/reperfusion injury in rats. © 2022 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
