Beneficial effects of quercetin on rat urinary bladder after spinal cord injury
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2013)
Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to an inflammatory response and generates oxidative stress, which has deleterious effects on the function of several organ systems, including the urinary bladder. The present study ...
The preventive and curative effects of melatonin against abdominal aortic aneurysm in rats
(MOSBY-ELSEVIER, 2018)
Objective: Oxygen free radicals are important components involved in the histopathologic tissue alterations observed during abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). This study examined whether melatonin has protective or therapeutic ...
Effects of Riboflavin on Traumatic Brain Injury Induced in Rats

Investigation into the role of the cholinergic system in radiation-induced damage in the rat liver and ileum
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2014)
It has been previously shown that acetylcholine (ACh) may affect pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines. The role of the cholinergic system in radiation-induced inflammatory responses and tissue damage remains ...
Melatonin and tadalafil treatment improves erectile dysfunction after spinal cord injury in rats
(WILEY, 2014)
Oxidative stress plays an important role both in spinal cord injury (SCI) and erectile dysfunction (ED). The present study investigated the effects of melatonin and tadalafil treatment alone or in combination on SCI-induced ...
Ameliorative effects of riboflavin on acetic acid-induced colonic injury in rats
(WILEY, 2018)
Riboflavin (RF) has been found to be a promising antioxidant and/or anti-inflammatory agent in several studies. However, the effect of RF against acetic acid (AA)-induced colonic injury is currently unknown. This study ...
Effects of Myrtus communis extract treatment in bile duct ligated rats
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2016)
Background: The aim of our study was to investigate the antifibrotic and antioxidant effects of Myrtus communis subsp. communis (MC) extract against liver injury and fibrosis occurring in rats with biliary obstruction. ...
Protective effect of platelet-rich plasma on urethral injury model of male rats
(WILEY, 2018)
Aims: Urethral stricture (US) formation is caused by fibrosis after excessive collagen formation following an injury or trauma to the urethra. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) ...
Resveratrol treatment may preserve the erectile function after radiotherapy by restoring antioxidant defence mechanisms, SIRT1 and NOS protein expressions
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018)
Radiotherapy (RT) for prostate cancer (PC) can cause erectile dysfunction (ED) by damaging neurovascular structures with oxidative stress. In this study, we evaluated the effects of resveratrol, an antioxidant, on post-RT ...
Montelukast inhibits caspase-3 activity and ameliorates oxidative damage in the spinal cord and urinary bladder of rats with spinal cord injury
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2012)
Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to an inflammatory response that generates substantial secondary damage within the tissue besides the primary damage. Leukotrienes are biologically active 5-lipoxygenase products of arachidonic ...
