Streptozotocin (STZ) is used as a diabetes-inducing agent in experimental animal studies. However, it is known that STZ-induced diabetic animals show significant increases in oxidative stress parameters and neurodegeneration besides their blood glucose level. In this study, the acute and subacute toxic effects of STZ on the liver, sciatic nerve, and brain tissues were investigated rat model.

Background: Spinal cord injury is a devastating trauma that leaves survivors at risk for several medical complications throughout their lives. Lercanidipine, a third-generation calcium channel blocker, possesses anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidative properties. This study aimed to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of lercanidipine in an experimental spinal cord trauma model.

Carboplatin (cis-diamine (1,1-cyclobutandicarboxylaso)‑platinum (II)) is a second-generation antineoplastic drug, which is widely used for chemotherapy of lung, colon, breast, cervix, testicular and digestive system cancers. Although preferred over cisplatin due to the lower incidence of nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity, efficient carboplatin delivery remains as a major challenge. In this study, carboplatin loaded alginate- poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) hybrid nanoparticles (CAPs) with mean sizes of 192.

Adjuvants are components of vaccines that boost the intensity, duration, and breadth of the immune response. Insight into the mechanisms responsible for the immunotoxicity of both local and systemic adverse reactions following the use of adjuvants has been gained through research over the past twenty years. In the present study, single and repeated-dose toxicity and local tolerance of newly developed Water-in-Oil (W/O) and Water-in-Oil-in-Water (W/O/W) Emulsion adjuvants (Coralvac RZ 528, Coralvac RZ 506, Coralvac AT 318, Coralvac AT 318 SIS and Coralvac 252) by Coral Biotechnology Industry and Trade Incorporated Company were demonstrated after intramuscular injection in mice.

Objective: The goal of this study was to manage the treatment modalities of ectopic pregnancy.

Patients And Methods: This retrospective study included 1,103 women diagnosed and treated for ectopic pregnancy at Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospital between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2020. Serial beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-Hcg) measurements and transvaginal ultrasound (TV USG) findings were used to establish the diagnosis of an ectopic pregnancy.
