Wound healing involves a number of processes, including an acute inflammatory response to production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and depression in antioxidant status. The aim of the study is to examine the therapeutic effects of Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester (CAPE), an antioxidant agent, on cutaneous wound healing in a rat model. There was a significant decrease in serum, wound and liver tissue TSA and serum LBSA levels in the CAPE group than in the control group. Also there was a significant decrease in serum and wound tissue TAC levels of the control group when compared to the CAPE group. But there was no difference between the groups in serum ADA activity, PBSA levels and liver tissue TAC levels. In conclusion, the present study showed the CAPE's efficacy in the treatment of cutaneous wounds by its antioxidant and ROS-scavenging capabilities.

Antioxidant capacities and bioactive compounds of novel thermo-tolerant green microalgae Bulut, Onur; Öktem, Hüseyin Avni; Department of Biotechnology (2018) Accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) at high levels in cells as a result of normal cellular activities as well as exposure to oxidative stress is attributed to many chronic degenerative diseases and conditions in humans including cardiovascular diseases, cancer and aging-related conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. Although living organisms are equipped with enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant defense systems to counteract the adverse effects of oxidative stress, yet they rely on exogenous s...
Dietary selenium- and vitamin E-induced alterations in some rabbit tissues Turan, B; Zaloglu, N; Koc, E; Saran, Y; Akkas, N (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1997-09-01) The present study was designed to investigate and compare the effects of dietary selenium (Se) and vitamin E on some physiological parameters and histological changes in liver, heart, and skin tissues, as well as the blood parameters and the related enzymes. Both sex young rabbits were fed with deficient (9.8 mu g/kg diet), adequate (225 mu g/kg diet), and rich (4.2 mg/kg diet) Se and vitamin E diets for 12-15 wk for this purpose As the plasma Se levels and the erythrocyte glutathione (GSH) peroxidase activ...
Rapid monitoring of diabetes-induced lipid peroxidation by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy: Evidence from rat liver microsomal membranes Severcan, F; Gorgulu, G; Gorgulu, ST; Güray, Nülüfer Tülün (Elsevier BV, 2005-04-01) Increased oxidative stress is the consequence of either enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production or attenuated ROS scavenging capacity, resulting in tissue damage that in most instances is assessed by the measurement of lipid peroxides. In the current study, diabetes-induced lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomal membranes was investigated by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy at different temperatures. The olefinic (=CH) band at 3012 cm(-1) was used to probe diabetes-induced lipid...
Resveratrol as a Growth Substrate for Bacteria from the Rhizosphere Kurt, Zöhre; Spain, Jim C. (2018-05-01) Resveratrol is among the best-known secondary plant metabolites because of its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. It also is an important allelopathic chemical widely credited with the protection of plants from pathogens. The ecological role of resveratrol in natural habitats is difficult to establish rigorously, because it does not seem to accumulate outside plant tissue. It is likely that bacterial degradation plays a key role in determining the persistence, and thus the ecological...
DEVELOPMENT OF 3D PRINTED PECTIN AND GELATIN BASED BIOACTIVE SKIN GRAFTS Bostancı, Nazlı Seray; Tezcaner, Ayşen; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Department of Biotechnology (2021-8-10) The aim of this study was to develop an easily applicable and bioactive skin graft composed of methacrylated pectin (PeMA) and methacrylated gelatin (GelMA), containing curcumin and/or Vitamin-C as antimicrobial and healing accelerating agents, respectively. Grafts were prepared in slab, 3D printed and 3D bioprinted forms and different properties were evaluated. Preparation parameters were optimized using slabs having different compositions (PeMA:GelMA as P:G 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3, v/v). P1:G1 solution did not h...
