Article Protective Effects of Panax Ginseng against Bisphenol A-Induced Testicular Toxicity in Rats(Springer Nature, 2026) Cesur, Yasemin; Cam, Kamil; Pazarbasi, Seren Ede; Dorucu, Dogancan; Sener, Goksel; Abas, Burcin Irem; Cevik, OzgeBisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine-disrupting chemical known to cause testicular toxicity through oxidative stress and apoptosis. Panax ginseng (PG) is a natural product with anti-inflammatory effects. This study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of PG against BPA-induced testicular damage in rats. Thirty-two Wistar Albino rats aged 10-12 weeks were divided into four groups: Control, PG, BPA, and BPA + PG. BPA (50 mg/kg/day) and PG (100 mg/kg/day) were orally administered for 6 weeks. BPA significantly increased serum total oxidant status and decreased antioxidant status (p < 0.001, p < 0.001). Also, the levels of superoxide dismutase (an antioxidant enzyme) (p = 0.0005) and androgen receptor-mRNA (an androgen signaling marker) decreased (p = 0.014). However, caspase 3 (an apoptosis marker) (p = 0.0067), 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (a marker of oxidative DNA damage) (p < 0.001), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (a proinflammatory cytokine) (p < 0.001) levels increased in testicular tissues. Rats treated with PG showed improvements in all oxidative and inflammatory markers and significantly restored androgen receptor expression. Histopathological examination revealed degeneration in seminiferous tubules and reduced spermatozoa in the BPA group, while the BPA + PG group showed marked improvement. These findings suggest that PG may alleviate oxidative stress-related testicular damage at both molecular and histological levels and may offer insights for future clinical studies.Article Panax Ginseng Extract Ameliorates Methotrexate-Induced Multi-Organ Damage Via the Regulation of Oxidative Stress(Marmara Univ, 2023) Macit, Caglar; Ede-Pazarbasi, Seren; Yilmaz-karaoglu, Suemeyye; Tunali-Akbay, Tugba; Karakaya-Cimen, Fatma Bedia; Ercan, Feriha; Sener, Goksel; Akbay, Tugba Tunalı-Oxidative damage plays an important role in organ toxicities caused by methotrexate (MTX). This study aimed to determine the antioxidant effects of Panax ginseng (PxG) extract against MTX-induced liver, lung, ileum and kidney damage. Twenty-four Sprague Dawley male rats (weight 250-300 g) were used in the study. The animals were randomly separated into three groups: a) Control, b) MTX-treated (MTX) and c) MTX+PxG-treated (MTX+PxG) groups. MTX was administered intraperitoneally at 20 mg/kg, as a single dose to MTX and MTX+PxG groups. PxG was administered orally at 100 mg/kg to the MTX+PxG group for five days. Saline was given to the control and MTX groups for 5 days. At the end of the experiment, liver, lung, ileum, and kidney samples were obtained. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels, superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione-S-transferase (GST) and tissue factor (TF) activities were determined in all tissues. In addition, histological examinations were done through light microscopy. GraphPad Prism 5v. was used for statistics, and p<0.05 were considered significant. Administration of MTX caused severe injury in tissues. Findings showed that MDA level, SOD, and GST activities were significantly normalized in the MTX+PxG group compared to the control group. A significant reduction in GSH level observed in the MTX group was reversed with PxG administration In addition, TF activity and total protein levels were found to be impaired in the MTX group, but TF activity was significantly improved in liver and lung tissues and total protein level was significantly reversed in lung and ileum in MTX+PxG group. The results of histological examinations showed that MTX-induced damage was ameliorated with the PxG administration. In conclusion, this study shows that Panax ginseng, thanks to its antioxidant properties, reversed MTX-induced tissue damage and therefore may be beneficial against side effects in patients undergoing chemotherapy.Article The Effects of Chard Extract Against Streptozotocin-Induced Erectile Dysfunction in Rats(Istanbul Univ, Fac Pharmacy, 2024) Aydin, Mustafa; Sacan, Ozlem; Kabasakal, Levent; Cetinel, Sule; Kadihasanoglu, Mustafa; Kendirci, Muammer; Sener, Goksel; Sönmez, Yeşim İpçi; Yanardag, RefıyeBackground and Aims: To analyze the potential therapeutic effects of chard against streptozotocin (STZ) -induced erectile dysfunction (ED) and oxidative damage in the corpus cavernousum in rats. Materials and Methods: In this study, Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300g) were allocated into groups as follows: control, diabetic, diabetic + chard, and diabetic + insulin. In order to induce diabetes, rats were given 65 mg/kg intraperitoneal streptozotocin. Chard extract was given orally at a dose 2 g/kg for 45 days beginning on 15 th days. Sixty days after STZ injection, intracavernosal pressure (ICP) was measured and rats were decapitated. Blood samples were obtained for glucose, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA)levels, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity while cavernous tissues were taken to analyze luminol and lucigenin chemiluminescence (CL), malondialdehyde and glutathione and along with histological analysis. Results: The results revealed that diabetes caused significant decreases in cavernosal tissue glutathione levels, while luminol and lucigenin CL, and malondialdehyde levels were significantly elevated. Plasma glucose, ADMA levels, and LDH activity were also found to be increased in diabetic group. On the other hand, both chard extract and insulin treatment reversed these biochemical parameters significantly. Furthermore, it was found that the ICP value examined for evaluating erectile functions were lower in the diabetic group, but increased in both treatment groups which were similar to the control values. Conclusion: According to our results, chard extract, similar to insulin, reduced diabetes -induced oxidative damage in cavernosal tissue and protected erectile functions. This effects may be attributed its hypoglycemic and antioxidant properties.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Aqueous Parsley (Petroselinum crispum) Extract Ameliorated Methotrexate-Induced Brain and Small Intestine Damage in Rats(Ankara Univ, 2025) Saçan, Ozlem; Şener, Göksel; Yanardag, Refıye; Tunali-Akbay, Tugba; Sivas, Guzin Goksun; Karaoğlu, Sümeyye Yılmaz; Dursun, Ercan; Akbay, Tugba Tunali; Yilmaz Karaoğlu, Sümeyye; Tufan, Elif; Tunali Akbay, TugbaMethotrexate (MTX) is a widely used antiarthritic and chemotherapeutic agent known to cause damage to various tissues. This study investigated the potential protective effects of parsley extract against MTX-induced brain and intestinal tissue damage. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into control, control + parsley, MTX, and MTX + parsley. MTX (20 mg/kg, i.p.) was administered to the MTX and MTX + parsley groups. The control + parsley, and MTX + parsley groups were administered 2 g/kg parsley extract by oral gavage for five consecutive days. After the fifth day, brain and small intestinal tissues were taken. Total protein, nitric oxide, lipid peroxidation, glutathione levels, tissue factor, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione S-transferase activities were determined in these tissues. The protein profiles of the tissues were evaluated using SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Parsley administration caused a decrease in lipid peroxidation levels in both tissues of the MTX group. On the other hand, glutathione level, glutathione-S-transferase, and superoxide dismutase activities were found to be increased. On the other hand, parsley decreased the nitric oxide level which was increased in the intestinal tissues of the MTX group. There was no significant change in brain nitric oxide level and tissue factor activity between groups. MTX and parsley administration altered protein expression, leading to the appearance or disappearance of specific bands in intestinal and brain tissues. In conclusion, parsley alleviated MTX-induced damage in brain and intestinal tissues by reducing lipid peroxidation and modulating antioxidant defenses.Article Evaluation of the Neuroprotective Effects of Korean Ginseng Root Extract in an Experimental Model of Multiple Sclerosis(Marmara Univ, Fac Medicine, 2025) Donmez, Muhammet Oguzhan; Sener, Goksel; Akbay, Tugba Tunali; Sivas, Guzin Goksun; Akakin, Dilek; Unlu, Hilal; Goren, Mehmet Zafer; Goksun Sivas, Guzin; Tunali Akbay, TugbaObjective: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system characterised by demyelination. The aim of this study was to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of Korean ginseng root extract (KGE) using a cuprizone-induced demyelination model. Materials and Methods: C57BL/6 mice were divided into control, demyelination and remyelination groups and each group was treated with KGE. Demyelination was induced with 0.2% cuprizone in the diet for four weeks. KGE (100 mg/kg) was administered by gavage during or after the cuprizone exposure. Body weight, food and water intake, and motor performance parameters were investigated. In addition, glutathione (GSH), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), superoxide dismutase (SOD) malondialdehyde (MDA), oligodendrocyte transcription factor-2 (OLIG2) and myelin basic protein (MBP) levels were measured in brain samples, while MBP and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry and myelin status was examined using Luxol Fast Blue staining. Results: Korean ginseng root extract prevented myelin loss, promoted remyelination, and improved motor performance. It reduced oxidative stress by increasing GSH, GST, and SOD levels while decreasing MDA. KGE also suppressed demyelination by reducing astrogliosis and restoring OLIG2 and MBP levels. Conclusion: Korean ginseng root extract exhibits neuroprotective properties during demyelination and promotes remyelination, highlighting its therapeutic potential for MS.Conference Object Mitigating Bisphenol A-Induced Oxidative Stress in Serum: The Protective Effect of Probiotics(Wiley, 2025) Dede, P.; Pazarbasi, S. Ede; Sener, G.; Tunali-Akbay, T.Article The Effects Of Panax Ginseng 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.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Effects of myrtus Communis L. Extract and Apocynin on Lens Oxidative Damage and Boron Levels in Rats With a High Fat-Diet(Galenos Publ House, 2021) Yasar, Ruya Kuru; Kuru, Dilruba; Sen, Ali; Sener, Goksel; Ercan, Feriha; Yarat, Aysen; Kuru, RuyaObjectives: Nutritional obesity causes oxidant damage in the body and cataract formation in the lenses by increasing the formation of free radicals. Myrtus communis leaf extracts (Myr) have antioxidant properties, and apocynin (Apo) is an effective NADPH-oxidase inhibitor. The data on tissue boron levels are quite lacking. The aim of this novel study was to investigate the effects of Myr and Apo treatment on boron levels and oxidative lens damage in rats fed a high-fat diet (HFD). Materials and Methods: Wistar albino male rats were randomly divided into four groups: the control group, HFD group, HFD + Myr group, and HFD + Apo group. Body weight and blood lipids were determined before and after the experiment. After decapitating the rats, the lenses were removed and homogenized. Catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities and boron, malondialdehyde (MDA), and reduced glutathione (GSH) levels in the lens homogenates were determined. Results: The HFD increased serum triglyceride (p<0.05), total cholesterol level (p<0.001), body weight (p<0.001), and lens MDA levels (p<0.01) and decreased lens GSH (p<0.05) and boron level (p<0.01), SOD (p<0.001), and CAT activity (p<0.001). However, Myr and Apo treatment reduced the rats' body weight (p<0.001), serum triglyceride (p<0.05), and total cholesterol level (p<0.001) and increased lens boron (p<0.01; p<0.001), GSH levels (p<0.05; p<0.01), and CAT activity (p<0.001). Conclusion: Both Myr and Apo may be able to reduce oxidative stress in the lenses of obese rats caused by HFD by increasing boron levels.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Whey Protein Concentrate Ameliorates the Methotrexate-Induced Liver and Kidney Damage(Cambridge Univ Press, 2023) Tufan, Elif; Sivas, Guezin Goksun; Gurel-Gokmen, Begum; Yilmaz-Karaoglu, Suemeyye; Dursun, Ercan; Caliskan-Ak, Esin; Tunali-Akbay, Tugba; Yllmaz-Karaoǧlu, SÜmeyye; Çallşkan-Ak, EsinMethotrexate (MTX) is a cytotoxic immunosuppressant that is widely used in the treatment of tumours, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. This study aims to evaluate the effects of whey proteins on MTX-induced liver and kidney damage by focusing on oxidant-antioxidant systems and eating habits. The study was conducted in four groups of thirty Sprague-Dawley rats (control, control + whey protein concentrate (WPC), MTX, MTX + WPC). A single dose of 20 mg/kg MTX was administered intraperitoneally to the MTX groups. Control and MTX groups were given 2 g/kg WPC by oral gavage every day for 10 d. At the end of day 10, blood samples were drawn and liver and kidney tissues were removed. MTX administration increased the lipid peroxidation level and decreased glutathione level, superoxide dismutase and glutathione-S-transferase activities in the liver and kidney. Administration of WPC significantly reduced the damage caused by MTX in the liver and kidney. While a decrease in serum urea level and an increase in serum creatinine level were detected in the MTX group, WPC administration reversed these results up to control group levels. Administration of WPC to the MTX group significantly reversed the histopathological damage scores of the liver and kidney. WPC administration ameliorated the MTX-induced oxidative damage in the liver and kidney tissues due to its antioxidant properties. Liver and kidney damage can be prevented by using whey proteins as a nutraceutical in MTX therapy. In conclusion, whey proteins demonstrated a protective effect against MTX-induced liver and kidney damage.Article Dodder (Cuscuta sp.) Extract Prevents Cognitive Deficits in a Rat Model of Hepatic Encephalopathy(Kare Publ, 2024) Cevik, Ozge; Sen, Ali; Şener, Göksel; Ercan, Feriha; Doğan, Ahmet; Özbeyli, Dilek; Hatipoğlu, Bilge Nur; Albayrak, Omercan; Koyuncuoglu, TurkanOBJECTIVE: In our study, the protective effect of dodder plant extract against encephalopathy induced by cholestatic liver disease model was investigated. METHODS: Spraque Dawley rats were used in the study. For the cholestatic liver disease model, the bile duct ligation (BDL) was applied. The groups were determined as control, Cuscuta sp. (CUS), BDL and BDL + CUS. Double ligation was performed in the bile duct in the BDL groups. For the applications, saline (SF) was administered to the control and BDL groups for 28 days while 250 mg/ kg of Cuscuta sp. extract was given by oral gavage to the CUS and BDL + CUS groups. At the end of the experiment, cognitive eval- uations were made by applying new object recognition and Morris water maze tests. After these tests, blood-brain barrier (BBB) measurements were made in half of the groups. In the other half of the groups, brain tissue samples were taken by decapitation and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and sodium-potassium adenosine triphospha- tase (Na+/K+-ATPase) measurements were made in the tissues. Histological examinations of the tissues were also performed. RESULTS: Cognitive performance was low, and BBB permeability was found to be increased in the group with bile duct liga- tion. In addition, TGF-β and 8-OHdG levels were increased in tissues, while Na+/K+-ATPase enzyme activity was suppressed. Treatment with Cuscuta sp. increased cognitive performance and decreased BBB permeability. Other biochemical parameters examined were significantly (p<0.05–0.001) reversed and supported by histological findings. CONCLUSION: Our findings in the study suggest that dodder plant may be beneficial for the protection of cognitive perfor- mance and brain tissue in encephalopathy caused by cholestasis. Keywords: Cuscuta sp.; cholestasis; encephalopathy; fibrosis.
