    Effects of long-term release GnRH agonist "deslorelin" on testicular HSP expression, accessory sex glands and testicular functions in adult male rats
    (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2019) Eski, Funda; Cetin, Nebi; Uslu, Sema; Uslu, Baris Atalay; Sendag, Sait; Yoruk, Mecit; Naseer, Zahid; Wehrend, Axel; Shakeel, Muhammad
    The objective of the present was to determine the effect of long-term release GnRH agonists "deslorelin" on suppression and restoration of testicular and accessory sex glands functions, and expression of HSP in testes of adult male rats. A group of twenty-eight male rats and fifty-six female rats were kept for eleven months. The male rats were subdivided into treatment (n = 18; deslorelin, an analogue of GnRH, 4.7 mg, S.C; six months) and control (n = 10; untreated), and the adult female rats were introduced with either treatment or control male rats at the 2nd, 6th and 11th months post implant insertion. At 6th month of deslorelin implants insertion, six male rats from treatment and five rats from control group were sacrificed. The remaining (twelve treatment and five control) male rats were sacrificed at 11 months. The testicular dimension were measured monthly in both treatment and control rats. The blood samples were collected for testosterone and HSP70 antibody, whereas, the testes and accessory glands were isolated for histological examination at each sacrificial time. The results showed that testicular dimension were significantly lesser in treatment group until 9 months post treatment. HSP70 protein expression was negligible at 6 months in treatment group but its intensity increased in spermatids 11 months of treatment similar to control group. Significantly lower testosterone concentrations with poor semen quality, and smaller litter size were observed in treatment group. The histological picture of accessory sex glands and seminiferous tubules shown a variable integrity in treatment group than control at 6 months implant insertion. In conclusion, the subcutaneous application of 4.7 mg of the GnRH-analogue deslorelin represents a practicable, like in the female rats, method to suppress testicular, accessory sex glands functions, testicular HSP expression and fertility in male rats. Moreover, the suppressive effects of deslorelin, continued until 11th months after removal of the implant. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Investigation of the Effect of GnRH (Deslorelin) on the Histochemical Structure of Salivary Glands in Rats
    (Soc Chilena Anatomia, 2019) Uslu, Sema; Cakmak, Gamze; Yoruk, Mecit
    This study was planned to determine the histochemical alterations of the submandibular gland by implantation of long-term GnRH (deslorelin 4.7 mg). Eighteen Wistar albino rats were used in the study. Alcian blue (AB; pH: 2.5), periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining was performed to determine the microscopic structure and histochemical structure of the GI submandibular gland. The Avidin-Biotin Complex (ABC) method was used to determine the immunohistochemical reactivity of lectin. After GnRH implantation, the organs were examined and atrophies were observed in organs. In the group in which the implants were removed, it was determined that there was no atrophy; organ structures and microscopic examination were similar to the control group. At the end of the study, submandibular gland was fixed in 10 % buffered formaldehyde. In three groups, PAS and AB histochemical staining revealed similar reactions. Immunohistochemically, lectin activity was found to react positively.

    Localisation of Estrogen Receptor Alpha and Progesterone Receptor B in Goat Ovaries During Breeding and Non-Breeding Season
    (KAFKAS UNIV, VETERINER FAKULTESI DERGISI, 2016) Uslu, Sema; Yoruk, Mecit; Mis, Leyla; Comba, Bahat
    The main objective of this study was to investigate the localisation of estrogen receptor alpha (ER-alpha) and progesterone receptor B (PR-B) by immunohistochemistry in goat ovaries during in- and out of breeding season. The ovaries obtained from goats slaughtered in breeding season (n=10) and non-breeding season (n=10) were used. From the same animals, blood samples were taken to determine the levels of serum steroid hormones (E-2, P-4). The ER-alpha and PR-B immunohistochemical distributions within the ovaries were determined by the ABC method. In breeding season, the ER-alpha was detected in the germinal epithelium and follicular granulosa cells. The PR-B was determined to concentrate on the corpus luteum (CL) cells. The same receptors were also found to be weak in the theca externa cells of preovulatory follicles. In non-breeding season, the ER-alpha germinal epithelium and smooth muscle cells of certain blood vessels showed a weak positive reaction. The PR-B was positively stained in the germinal epithelium and few stroma cells. It was suggested that the average steroid hormone profiles in breeding (E-2: 11.83 +/- 1.70 pg/mL, P-4: 10.08 +/- 1.58 ng/ml) and non-breeding season (E-2 2.33 +/- 0.85 pg/ml, P-4 0.21 +/- 0.04 ng/ml) correlated well with the localisation intensity of receptors in goat ovaries.
