Abstract

Objective: We planned to search the effects of p-coumaric acid on ovary and lung injuries formed via bilateral adnexal torsion detorsion (T/D) in experimental rat model. Methods: 24 female, Sprague-Dawley rats were sorted out as 3 groups. Design of the groups was performed as sham (group I) and T/D (group II), p-coumaric acid+T/D (group III) groups. Sham group; abdomen area was applied incision and repaired with no T/D model application. T/D group; 3 h of torsion phase completed and then 3 h of detorsion stage was established. P-coumaric acid+T/D group; p-coumaric acid was administered at the dose of 100 mg/kg for 15 days by oral gavage and then, T/D model was performed. Following detorsion phase, rats were sacrificed, lung and ovarian tissues were excised for biochemical and immunohistochemical evaluations. Results: When it is compared to group I, oxidant parameters elevated significantly in group II (p<0.05) while the activity of antioxidant enzymes and TAS level decreased. On the other side, antioxidant enzyme activity raised and oxidant parameter levels diminished in group III compared to group II (p<0.05). Moreover, NF-kB, caspase 3 and LC3B protein expression levels increased in ovary and lung tissues of the group II. But NF-kB, caspase 3 and LC3B protein expression levels decreased in group III. Conclusion: As a consequence, p-coumaric acid acted a protective performance against ovary and lung injuries arising from adnexal T/D model in rats.
