    The Effects of Thermal Injury on Immature Rat Ear Cartilage
    (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2010) Aygit, A. Cemal; Benlier, Erol; Top, Husamettin; Yalcin, Omer; Huseyinova, Gulara; Kanter, Mehmet; Cakir, Beyhan
    The purpose of this study was to research regeneration and growing properties of an immature rat ear cartilage and its adjacent tissue after a thermal injury. Fifteen 30-day-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were used. Burn wounds were created by applying a heated plaque. All the rats, based on their tissue sampling day, were placed in two groups for histopathologic evaluation. In group I (n = 5), the burned right auricles were amputated on the first day, and the left auricles were amputated as a control at the same time. In group II (n = 10), the burned right auricles were amputated on the 30th day, and the left auricles were amputated as a control at the same time. Epithelization of skin was completed in period ranging between 12 and 15 days in all burned ears. The skin appendages were few throughout the affected area. Chondroid tissue regenerated from perichondrium and increased capillary vessels were observed. On the first day of the burn injury, electron microscopic findings were karyopyknosis, karyorrhexis, and karyolysis of the nucleus, and there were also signs of necrosis. New chondro-blasts were formed around the collagen fibrils in the scar tissue on the 30th day. CD-31 immunohistochemical staining showed increased capillary vessels in the burned ear. The peripheral nerve fibers decreased and regenerative signs of nerves were shown with the use of S-100 immunohistochemical staining. Differentiation of chondroblasts to chondrocytes occurs in the burned immature ear, and new cartilage tissue regenerates from perichondrium. In addition, regenerative signs of nerves appear.

    Oncocytic carcinoma of the parotid gland
    (Karger, 2006) Caloglu, Murat; Yurut-Caloglu, Vuslat; Altaner, Semsi; Huseyinova, Gulara; Unlu, Ercument; Karagol, Hakan; Uzal, Cem
    Background: Oncocytic carcinoma is a rare tumor of major salivary glands. Despite being described 5 decades ago, not much is known about these rare tumors. Histochemical or electron microscopic confirmation of the oncocytic nature of the tumor cell is needed for differential diagnosis. The main treatment modality is surgery with or without adjuvant radiotherapy. Malignant oncocytomas have the potential risk of developing distant metastases and demand long term follow-up after therapy. Case Report: A 58-year old man presented with a recurrent mass in the left parotid gland with a prior diagnosis of monomorphic adenoma in the same localization which had been treated by tumor excision in July 2002. Left superficial parotidectomy followed by radiotherapy into tumor bed and upper neck were carried out in September 2004. To date, he has had no evidence of recurrence for 14 months. Conclusion: For an accurate approach in the management of patients, oncocytic adenocarcinoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of lesions of the parotid gland, most of which are benign.

    The protective effects of melatonin and vitamin E against renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2007) Aktoz, Tevfik; Aydogdu, Nurettin; Alagol, Bulent; Yalcin, Omer; Huseyinova, Gulara; Atakan, Irfan Huseyin
    Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were shown to contribute to the cellular damage induced by ischemia-reperfusion. The purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the efficiency of melatonin and vitamin E in the reduction of injury induced by ROS in a rat model of renal ischemia-reperfusion. Twenty-four Wistar-albino rats were divided into four groups. Rats in the Sham group were given saline 1 mL/kg, intraperitoneally (ip) 72 h, 48 h, 24 h, and 30 min before the sham operation. Rats in ischemia-reperfusion (IR), IR+Melatonin, and IR+Vitamin E groups were given saline (1 mL/ kg), melatonin (10 mg/kg), and vitamin E (100 mg/kg) ip, respectively, 72 h, 48 h, 24 h, and 30 min before the ischemia for 60 min, followed by reperfusion for 60 min. The blood samples and kidney tissues of the rats were taken under anesthesia. lschemia-reperfusion significantly increased urea, creatinine, and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, and decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities. Histopathological findings of the IR group confirmed that there was renal impairment by cast formation and tubular necrosis in the tubular epithelium. In the IR+Melatonin group, while MDA levels significantly decreased, SOD activities increased. In the IR+Melatonin group, the level of tubular necrosis and cast formation are significantly decreased than those seen in the ischemia-reperfusion group. Melatonin in particular was effective to reverse hot ischemia of kidney by its antioxidant effects. These results may indicate that melatonin pretreatment protects against functional, biochemical, and morphological damage better than vitamin E in renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.
