Protective effects of passiflora incarnata on ovarian ischemia/reperfusion damage in rats with ovarian torsion
Serkan Arslan
Abstract:BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate whether Passiflora Incarnata (PI) has a protective effect against ischemia-reperfusion (IR)-induced oxidative and inflammatory ovarian damage.
METHODS:The effects of PI on ovarian ischemia-reperfusion injury were investigated in female Wistar albino rats. The animals were randomly divided into three groups: Group 1 (sham), Group 2 (IR), and Group 3 (IR+PI).
RESULTS:The mean levels of Malondialdehyde (MDA), Myeloperoxidase (MPO), and Total Oxidant Status (TOS) were hi… Show more
