Öğe The effects of Enalapril and Irbesartan in experimental diabetic nephropathy(Diagnosis Press Ltd, 2007) Yalcin, O.; Ustundag, S.; Sen, S.; Usta, U.; Huseyinova, G.; Puyan, F. Oz; Kutlu, K.In our study we investigated the effects of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor and Angiotensin T, receptor blocker at low-doses which do not affect blood pressure and renal hemodynamia on the experimental diabetic nephropathy. Diabetes mellitus was induced by 50 mg/kg streptozotocin on Sprague-Dawley rats. Except for the patient control group, 2.5 mg/kg Enalapril (an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor) and 5 mg/kg Irbesartan (an Angiotensin T, receptor blocker) were given everyday via drinking water during six weeks period. After 24-hour urine collection, blood was withdrawn by cardiac puncture, and rats were sacrificed. Renal functions, histopathologic and electron microscopic alterations in renal tissues, and relative percent deposition of type IV Collagen were investigated. Diabetic nephropathy was determined with the increase of plasma glucose, HbA(9)C (P< 0. 000), urea, creatinin (P<0.005) and urinary protein, albumin, glucose (P<0. 000) inpatient control and Enalapril and Irbesartan treatment groups when compared to the healthy control group. Mesangiocellular proliferation, tubular basement membrane thickness, percentage of glomerular collagen accumulation reduced in treatment groups and glucose in urine in Enalapril group declined. Our findings suggest that renal protective effects of Enalapril and Irbesartan in the development of diabetic nephropathy were comparable.Öğe Histopathological comparison of vascular wall damage created by external cross-clamp and endoluminal balloon occlusion techniques(Edizioni Minerva Medica, 2009) Ozalp, B.; Canbaz, S.; Huseyinova, G.; Duran, E.Aim Almost all cross-clamps utilized in vascular surgery, even atraumatic clamps, have been shown to cause mechanical damage to the vascular wall. in recent years, surgical procedures using an endoluminal balloon technique have been reported as an alternative occlusion strategy. This study discusses the histopathological characteristics and comparison between vascular wall damage secondary to the two occlusion techniques in the early postoperative period. Methods. Twelve adult rabbits were divided into two experimental groups: the clamp group (N.=6) and the balloon group (N.=6). External cross-clamp occlusion was applied to the abdominal aorta for 30 minutes via laparotomy in the clamp group. in the balloon group, occlusion was applied for 30 minutes by inflating the catheter balloon, which was inserted through the iliac artery and advanced into the abdominal aorta. The appropriate aortic segments were subsequently extracted in both groups and tissue samples were examined by fight and electron microscopy. Finally, the samples were scored for grade of tissue damage. Results. In both experimental groups, tissue damage was apparent. in the investigations carried out under light microscopy, it was observed that the damage caused by balloon occlusion was remarkably less than the damage caused by the cross-clamp technique. in the balloon group, eight tissue samples (66.7%) had grade 1 damage. On the other hand, five tissue samples had grade 3 damage, all of which were in the clamp group. Investigation by electron microscopy revealed that greater intimal, medial, and adventitial damage occurred in the vascular walls of the clamp group samples, and this also corresponded with an increase in immune response and intraluminal thrombosis. Conclusion. External clamp and internal balloon occlusion techniques applied to the aorta were compared, and widespread intimal and medial damage were observed in both techniques. However, endoluminal occlusion of the aorta should be the technique of choice in properly selected cases, since it results in lower damage grades, and it should also be used if application of an external clamp is technically difficult.
