ellagic acid/atrophy

The aim of this study was to investigate the possible protective role of antioxidant treatment with ellagic acid on cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity using biochemical and histopatological approaches. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups. The control group received

BACKGROUND Neuroinflammation may play as an important risk factor in progressive degeneration of dopaminergic cells. Antioxidants have protective effects against free radicals-induced neural damage in Parkinson's disease (PD). In the present study, we examined the effects of ellagic acid (EA) on

This study was conducted to investigate the possible protective effect of ellagic acid (EA) on cyclosporine A (CsA)-induced testicular and spermatozoal damages associated with oxidative stress in male rats. Forty adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups of 10 animals each. Control

To study the effects of ellagic acid(EA)on inflammation and oxidative stress in mice with fatty liver disease induced by AKT gene transfection,the 20 female FVB mice were randomly divided into normal control group,model group and ellagic acid administration group(150,300 mg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1))(n=5).EA

The key pathological features of chronic pancreatitis are chronic inflammation, acinar atrophy, and pancreatic fibrosis. We have previously shown that ellagic acid, a plant-derived polyphenol found in fruits and nuts, inhibited activation of pancreatic stellate cells, a major profibrogenic cell type

Cisplatin is an anticancer drug commonly used for solid tumors. However, it causes nephrotoxicity. OAT1 and OAT3 are organic anion transporters known to contribute to the uptake of cisplatin into renal tubular cells. The present study was designed to examine the protective role of ellagic acid

The present study was conducted to investigate the possible protective effects of lycopene (LP) and ellagic acid (EA) on aroclor (AR) 1254-induced testicular and spermatozoal toxicity associated with the oxidative stress and apoptosis in male rats. The control group was treated with placebo. LP (10

This study evaluated the protective effect of ellagic acid on sodium valproate-induced sperm abnormalities in male Wistar rats. A total of 30 rats were grouped into five groups, each having 6 animals. Vehicle, sodium valproate (400 mg/kg) and ellagic acid (10, 25, 50 mg/kg) were given orally from

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether ellagic acid (EA) has a possible protective effect against cisplatin (CP)-induced negative changes in epididymal sperm characteristics and the histologic structure of testis and prostate associated with oxidative stress in rats. METHODS Experimental

In this study, the toxic effect of cyclophosphamide (CP) on sperm morphology, testicular histology and blood oxidant-antioxidant balance, and protective roles of lycopene (LC) and ellagic acid (EA) were investigated. For this purpose, 48 healthy, adult, male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into six

The aim of the present study was to investigate whether ellagic acid (EA) has protective effect on adriamycin (ADR)-induced testicular and spermatozoal toxicity associated with the oxidative stress in male rats. Thirthy-two healthy 8-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were equally divided into four

Osteoarthritis (OA), a progressive joint disorder, is principally characterized by the degeneration and destruction of the articular cartilage. Ellagic acid (EA), a natural polyphenol found in berries and nuts has shown potent anti-inflammatory effects, however, its effects and underlying mechanisms

Sleep disorder has become a prevalent issue in current society and is connected with the deterioration of neurobehaviors such as mood, cognition and memory. Ellagic acid (EA) is a phenolic phytoconstituent extracted from grains and fruits that has potent neuroprotective properties. This research

The ability of an aqueous extract of the rhizomes of Sansevieria liberica to protect against carbon tetrachloride induced liver injury was investigated in Wistar albino rats. The carbon tetrachloride was prepared 1:5 (v:v) in olive oil, and administered subcutaneously at 1 mL/kg body weight. The

Guava leaf extract and ellagic acid, one of its polyphenolic components, inhibit the activity of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 5 (ADAMTS-5), which is associated with aggrecan degeneration during the early stage of osteoarthritis (OA). To investigate the efficacy of
