    Protective Effects of L-Theanine against Bisphenol A-Induced Oxidative Stress and Gut Microbiota Disruption in Wistar Rats
    (Springer, 2026) Sener, Azize; Marzi, Mahdi; Sener, Goksel; Donmez, Muhammet Oguzhan
    Background Gut microbiota homeostasis plays a central role in maintaining intestinal redox balance and immune regulation. Bisphenol A (BPA), a widely distributed environmental contaminant, has been associated with oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, and disturbances in intestinal microbial communities. L-theanine (LTN), a bioactive amino acid naturally present in green tea, possesses well-documented antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties; however, its potential protective role against BPA-induced intestinal injury has not been fully clarified. Methods and Results In the present study, female Wistar albino rats were randomly allocated into three groups: control, BPA (50 mg/kg/day), and BPA + LTN (100 mg/kg/day) and treated for 30 days. Oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in intestinal and colonic tissues were assessed by measuring malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH) levels and myeloperoxidase (MPO), catalase (CAT) activities. BPA exposure significantly increased MDA (p < 0.001) level and MPO (p < 0.001) activity while reducing GSH content (p < 0.001) and CAT activity (p < 0.001) compared with the control group. Compared to the BPA group, LTN treatment led to significant changes in MDA, MPO, and GSH levels in both tissues. MDA and MPO levels were significantly reduced in the intestine and colon tissues of the BPA + LTN group (p < 0.001). GSH and CAT levels were significantly increased in both the intestine and colon compared to the BPA group (p < 0.001). In addition, fecal microbiota composition was analyzed using 16 S rRNA gene sequencing, with taxonomic profiling performed at the phylum, genus and species levels. BPA exposure was associated with reduced microbial stability and compositional shifts within the gut microbiota, whereas LTN treatment partially restored microbial richness and community structure. Conclusions Collectively, these findings indicate that LTN alleviates BPA-induced intestinal oxidative stress and microbiota dysbiosis, suggesting its potential as a protective dietary compound against environmental toxicant-related intestinal injury.

    Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG Alleviates Bisphenol-A Induced Oxidative Stress in Serum
    (Marmara University, Faculty of Pharmacy, 2025) Şener, Göksel; Tunali-Akbay, Tugba; Dorucu, Dogancan; Ede-Pazarbasi, Seren; Dede, Pınar; Ede-Pazarbas, Seren
    The objective of this investigation was to identify changes in the serum oxidant-antioxidant balance of rats exposed to bisphenol A (BPA) and to investigate the impact of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) administration on those changes. Twenty-four rats (Wistar Albino, 250-300 grams, male) were divided into control, BPA, and BPA+LGG groups with an equal number of rats. BPA and LGG were applied to the rats in the relevant groups for six weeks, five days each week. Six weeks later, the blood samples were withdrawn and serum samples were prepared. Total oxidant and antioxidant status (TAS), glutathione, and lipid peroxidation determinations were determined in serum samples, and the oxidative stress index was calculated. BPA exposure decreased serum total antioxidant status and increased serum total oxidative status, oxidative stress index, and lipid peroxidation level compared to the control group. LGG administration improved the increased serum oxidative stress caused by BPA. Administration of LGG to BPA-treated rats reversed oxidative stress-induced changes. In conclusion, administration of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG to rats for 30 consecutive days prevented oxidative stress in serum caused by bisphenol A.

    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, Seren
    Objective: 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.
