Orange peels modulate antioxidant markers and key enzymes relevant to erection in the penile tissue of paroxetine‐treated rats

Abstract: In comparison to other antidepressant drugs, erectile dysfunction (ED) is more pronounced in paroxetine use. On the other hand, orange (Citrus sinensis) peels commonly consumed in various forms are used in folkloric medicine for ED management. Thus, this study evaluated the effect of orange peels infusion on sexual behaviour, nitric oxide (NO) level and some enzymes (arginase, phosphodiesterase-5 [PDE-5], acetylcholinesterase [AChE] and adenosine deaminase [ADA]) in paroxetine-treated rats. Erectile dysfunctio… Show more

“…96 For example, citrus peel extract has potential antioxidant and lipid peroxidation and lipoxygenase inhibition. 97 Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium has been investigated with a health promoting properties, 98,99 which can remove moisture and protect the spleen, 100 while reducing NO levels, 101 exerting antioxidant effects, 38,102 and lowering the liver lipid content. 103 Its extract has anti-lipase activity, 104 which can directly or indirectly treat obesity.…”

“…upregulates StAR expression through stimulation of protein kinase G1 (Andric et al, 2010). Additionally, the antioxidant activity of sildenafil in rats has previously been reported (Ademosun et al, 2019;Menezes et al, 2019).…”

“…In the present study, the levels of vitamin E were also decreased significantly in paroxetine group and did not change in the agomelatine group. In addition to the studies reporting that antidepressants might have antioxidant characteristics (Kirkova et al, ; Kumar, Garg, Gaur, & Kumar, ), there are also several other studies reporting that paroxetine and other antidepressants have pro‐oxidant characteristics and cause oxidative stress (Ademosun, Adebayo, & Oboh, ; Inkielewicz‐Stepniak, ). Agomelatine is considered as an antidepressant that has antioxidant characteristics (Ozcan et al, ; Yigitturk et al, ).…”
