Abstract
Background: Spinal cord ischemia has serious sequelae. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of resveratrol and caffeic acid phenyl ester (CAPE), a propolis derivative, on spinal cord injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion (IR).
Methods: In our research, 30 male Wistar albino rats, 200-250 gr, were used. Before the experiment, during a week of the process, the rats were fed with these two agents, and the experimental group rats were exposed to spinal cord IR injury. At the end of the experiment, spinal cord samples were taken from the sacrificed rats. Bax, p53, nNOS, and Beclin-1 immunoreactivity moreover TUNEL (+) cells were evaluated with immunohistochemically in the IR-induced damaged rats.
Results: It has been clearly determined that the TUNEL (+) apoptotic cell number and immunopositive cells of nNOS, Beclin-1, p53, Bax were raised in the IR group. However, these increments partially were restored in the resveratrol and CAPE-fed rats with IR-induced injury.
Conclusion: In light of our data, resveratrol, and CAPE could be beneficial in spinal cord IR injury. Although both agents provide beneficial effects, it can be said that CAPE is partially more effective in spinal cord injury caused by IR.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
