Investigation of the effects of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) skin mucus against indomethacin-induced gastric damage in rats.

A peptic ulcer is a stomach lesion. It is generally caused by malnutrition, the use of anti-inflammatory medications, and an imbalance between mucosal defense systems. In fishes, the lubricous substance that called mucus secreted from the skin, prevents the entry of microorganisms that can enter the body through the skin.

The Role of Pectin Hydrogel Systems Plus Iodine and Phyto Extract in Second-Degree Burn in Rats.

Skin injuries, such as burns, can result in an open wound that can lead to the deterioration of the skin, which acts as a protective barrier against external agents, and can cause serious health problems. Pectin, a plant-derived polysaccharide, is a suitable candidate for wound care due to its gel-forming ability and biocompatibility. Pectin absorbs wound exudates to form a soft gel and is known for its strong anti-inflammatory efects.

Histopathological Overview of Experimental Ulcer Models.

Histopathology is the process of examining tissue that includes all the changes, when a diseased tissue shows compared to a healthy group with a result of a histological observation. Histopathology has become an essential process in medical experimental research and medical experimental models. Scientists have developed medical experimental animal models for these reasons and have pioneered new drug research for many years.

Potential role of angiotensin converting enzyme/neprilysin pathway and protective effects of omapatrilat for paracetamol‑induced acute liver injury.

The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is an important pathway that contributes to the pathophysiology of acute liver injury due to paracetamol toxicity.

Do peripheral melatonin agonists improve bone fracture healing? The effects of agomelatine and ramelteon on experimental bone fracture.

Melatonin improves fracture healing, but the long-term use of melatonin seems impracticable in the treatment of fracture due to side effects caused by hormonal stress on chronological rhythm.
