    An Experimental Rat Model Study: Is There Any Effect of Syringic Acid on Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Priapism?
    (Springer, 2023) Sarıkaya, Kubilay; Kölükçü, Engin; Unsal, Velid; Özdemir, Süleyman
    Purpose The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of syringic acid on ischemia-reperfusion injury in cavernosal tissue, utilizing a rat model of induced priapism. Materials and methods A total of 24 rats were allocated into three groups. Group 1 was designated as the control group, while Group 2 underwent ischemia-reperfusion injury assessment using the priapism model. Group 3 underwent the same procedures as Group 2, with the addition of intraperitoneal administration of syringic acid (100 mg/kg) 60 min after priapism initiation. All rats underwent penectomy, and sufficient blood samples were collected. Histopathological assessment of penile cavernosal tissue involved grading tissue damage, inflammation, vasocongestion, desquamation, and edema on a scale of 0-3 (0: normal, 1: mild, 2: moderate, 3: severe). Result Significant differences were observed among the three groups in terms of IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha levels (p=0.001 and p<0.001, respectively). IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha levels in Group 2 were found to be significantly higher than Group 3 (p=0.003 and p=0.004). There was also a significant difference among the three groups in terms of median MDA levels (p<0.001). Furthermore, the median MDA level in Group 2 was found to be significantly higher than that in Group 3 (p<0.001). While significant differences were observed among the three groups in terms of median SOD and GSH-px levels, no significant difference was found among the groups in terms of median PC levels (p=0.004, p= 0.048, and p=0.159, respectively). In direct microscopic examination, a significant improvement in pathological scores was noted in Group 3 compared to Group 2 (p<0.001). Conclusion Syringic acid demonstrated protective properties against ischemia-reperfusion injury caused by priapism in cavernosal tissue.

    Protective Effects of Syringic Acid on Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Testicular Torsion: An Experimental Study in a Rat Model
    (CUREUS INC, 2023) Sarıkaya, Kubilay; Kölükçü, Engin; Unsal, Velid
    Aim: The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of syringic acid in preventing ischemia-reperfusion injury following detorsion in a rat model of induced testicular torsion.Material and methods: In our study, a total of 24 rats, eight in each group, were used. Group 1 served as the control group. Group 2 underwent testicular torsion and detorsion. Group 3 underwent the same procedures as Group 2, but also received 100 mg/kg syringic acid immediately following ischemia. Spectrophotometric analysis was performed on blood samples, and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), as well as the values of malondialdehyde (MDA), were evaluated under direct microscopic examination of the testis to determine tissue injury. The architecture of the seminiferous tubules and spermatogenesis processes were graded using the Johnsen and Cosentino scoring systems.Results: The mean value of MDA was higher in Group 2 compared to the other groups (p < 0.001). Group 3 demonstrated a decline in the concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor -alpha, interleukin-6, and interleukin-1 beta, as indicated by biochemical analysis of blood samples, when compared to Group 2 (p-values: 0.045, 0.001, and <0.001, respectively). In addition, the improvement in Johnsen and Cosentino scores was significantly higher in Group 3 compared to Group 2 (p = 0.028 and p = 0.001, respectively).Conclusion: These findings suggest that syringic acid has a protective effect against testicular oxidative damage.

    Renoprotective effect of diacerein in rats with partial unilateral ureteral obstruction model
    (Walter de Gruyter, 2024) Katar, Muzaffer; Gevrek, Fikret; Fırat, Fatih; Kölükçü, Engin; Unsal, Velıd
    Objectives: We aimed to analyze the effects of diacerein in a rat model of partial unilateral ureteral obstruction (PUUO). Methods: We randomly divided 24 female rats into three groups. Control group, PUUO group and PUUO + diacerein group. The PUUO group was subjected to the PUUO model for seven days. The PUUO + diacerein group received oral diacerein (80 mg/kg) for seven days. Spectrophotometric methods were employed to measure oxidative stress parameters, including malondialdehyde (MDA), protein carbonyl (PC) and antioxidant enzyme levels, including glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and superoxide dismutase (SOD), while indicators of renal function, such as kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and neutrophil gelatinous- associated lipocalin (NGAL), along with inflammatory parameters interleukin-1 beta (IL-1beta), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and interleukin-6 (IL-6), were assessed using the ELISA method. Inflammatory parameters were measured in blood samples, and other parameters were analyzed in kidney tissue. Hematoxylin-eosin method examinations were used for histological analyses. Results: IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, and IL-6 levels were found to be significantly decreased in the PUUO + diacerein group compared to the PUUO group (p=0.006, p=0.002 and p=0.001, respectively). In the PUUO + diacerein group, GSH-Px and SOD activities increased compared with the PUUO group (p=0.031 and p=0.037, respectively). We also observed a significant improvement in renal function parameters, such as KIM-1 and NGAL levels in the PUUO + diacerein group compared to PUUO (p=0.002 and p=0.012, respectively). The PC and MDA levels were highest in the PUUO group (p<0.001). Similarly, the histopathologic tissue damage was the most prominent PUUO group (p<0.001). Conclusions: Our study found that diacerein is a highly effective pharmacologic agent in alleviating oxidative dam- age in PUUO model rats.
