Aim: To evaluate the effects of tramadol on inflammation by measuring NLRP1 and IL-1 beta (IL-1β) levels in an experimental neuropathic pain model.
Material And Methods: Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: control, chronic constriction injury (CCI), and CCI + tramadol. Neuropathic pain was assessed using mechanical allodynia, thermal hyperalgesia, and cold allodynia.
This study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of taurine (TAU) with regard to antioxidant, anti inflammatory and antiapoptotic pathways on cyclophosphamide (CP)-induced testicular toxicity in rats. Forty Sprague-Dawley male rats were used in this experimental study. The CP group animals received a single dose of 200mg/kg CP on Day 8 intraperitoneally (i.

This study aimed to compare the effects of these mediators on pain, anxiety, and depression. Ninety-one adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were used for the experiments.

Ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and peripheral neuropathy are the most common side effects of this drug. 2-Aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), boron- containing compound, has some protective effects against various tissue damage.

Naproxen sodium has already been experimentally proven to be effective for this purpose. Accordingly, the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of safflower oil were compared with those obtained with benzydamine HCl and naproxen sodium.
