...Paola Lucia Minciullo; Antonino Inferrera; Michele Navarra; Gioacchino Calapai; Carlo Magno; Sebastiano Gangemi Background: Several parameters including inflammatory mediators, hormones, dietary factors, inflammatory genes, and oxidative stress (OS) have been considered to play a role...

... in the penises were detected by electron microscopy in the control group, but not in the PNS groups (10 and 150 mg/kg). The results suggest that PNS improves erectile function in diabetic rats. This improvement was associated with increased Akt expression, suppressed oxidative stress and restored functions...

... spermatic vein tissue samples were obtained. The level of the malondialdehyde (MDA), an indicator of oxidative stress, and the activities of antioxidant enzymes (defense systems) against oxidative stress such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were estimated in these tissue samples. Results...

... finished after sham operation time for controls, 120 min torsion and 240 min detorsion for the other groups. In the TD+TQ group 10 mg TQ was injected intraperitoneally 30 min before detorsion. Results: In the TD group total oxidative stress (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI) and malondialdehyde (MDA...

... is there an effective agent that might prevent this injury. In this study we aimed to investigate the long-term effects of naloxone, a morphine antagonist, on testicular histopathology and oxidative stress after spermatic vessel ligation (SVL) in rats. Methods: 32 prepubertal rats were randomly divided into four equal...

... the effects of oxidative stress on testis produced by varicocele. Methods: 6-week-old, male Wistar rats, weighing 146–334 g (228.37 ± 41.34 g), were randomly allocated into two groups. The first group underwent selective and bilateral partial ligation of the spermatic vein (n = 28), and the second group...

...Ziya Akçetin; Gurur Erdemli; Hans-Jürgen Brömme In response to the rising demand for renal transplantations, more and more marginal (e.g. older) organs are being transplanted with the result of decreasing graft survival rates. Ischemia-reperfusion injury via oxidative stress is thought...
