Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Gold Nanoparticle/Silk Fibroin-Based Nanofiber Enhances Skin Regeneration(Oxford University Press, 2025) Özcan, Ozan; Tufan, Elif; Muhan, Aleyna Tanrıverdi; Çalişkan-Ak, Esin; Şener, Göksel; Tunalı-Akbay, Tuǧba; Ak, EsinObjectives The aim of this study was to determine the wound-healing potential of gold nanoparticles and silk fibroin-based nanofiber produced by green chemistry. Methods The electrospinning method was used to prepare the nanofiber. Twenty rats were exposed to a 7-day treatment period and another 20 rats were exposed to a 21-day treatment period. Rat groups were control, silver, silk fibroin, and silk + gold nanoparticle groups for each period. The effect of the gold nanoparticle/silk fibroin-based nanofiber was examined in skin samples by using biochemical and histological analysis. In biochemical analysis, skin oxidant and antioxidant parameters were determined. Key findings Parameters indicating skin damage returned to their previous levels 7 and 21 days after the wound formation using gold nanoparticle/silk fibroin-based nanofiber. Gold nanoparticle/silk fibroin-based nanofiber initiated hair follicle formation at the wound site and accelerated the re-epithelialization process. Conclusions It was found that the nanofiber prepared by adding gold nanoparticles to silk fibroin had better wound-healing properties than silk fibroin nanofibers without gold nanoparticles. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article The Effects Of<i> Panax</I><i> Ginseng</I> on Serum Oxidative Stress Following Bisphenol a Exposure(Istanbul Univ, 2024) Fazalyar, Najiullah; Pazarbasi, Seren Ede; Dorucu, Dogancan; Sener, Goksel; Tunali-Akbay, Tugba; Ede-pazarbasi, SerenObjective: Bisphenol A (BPA) is a toxic compound that causes oxidative stress by disrupting antioxidant enzymes and promoting tissue lipid peroxidation. This study aimed to examine the impacts of BPA on serum oxidative stress in rats and to detect the antioxidant feature of Panax ginseng (PxG) in reducing BPA-induced oxidative stress. Materials and Methods: Wistar Albino rats (250-300 g) were divided into control, control + PxG, BPA, and BPA + PxG groups. 50 mg/kg BPA and 100 mg/g PxG were given for six weeks. Serum total antioxidant and oxidant status, lipid peroxidation, and glutathione levels were determined. Results: BPA administration increased total oxidant status and lipid peroxidation, while PxG administration to the BPA group decreased these parameters. PxG also increased total antioxidant status and glutathione levels compared to the BPA group. Conclusion: BPA was seen to cause an increase in oxidative parameters and PxG administration to restore the oxidative stress that was generated after BPA exposure, suggesting that this may help to prevent the adverse effects caused by BPA exposure.
