    Sepsis, systemic hyper-inflammatory immune response, causes the increase of morbidity and mortality rates due to multi-organ diseases such as neurotoxicity. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis to cause brain damage. We aimed to evaluate the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects of Agomelatine (AGM) on LPS induced brain damage via NF-kB signaling. Twenty-four animals were divided into three groups as control, LPS (5 mg/kg) and LPS + AGM (20 mg/kg). Six hours after the all administrations, rats were sacrificed, brain tissues were collected for biochemical, histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis. In LPS group; total oxidant status (TOS), OSI index, Caspase-8 (Cas-8), NF-k beta levels increased and Total antioxidant status (TAS) levels decreased biochemically and Cas-8, haptoglobin and IL-10 expressions increased and sirtuin-1 (SIRT-1) levels decreased immunohistochemically. AGM treatment reversed these parameters except haptoglobin levels in hippocampus and SIRT-1 levels in cerebellum. Besides, AGM treatment blocked the phosphorylation of NF-kB biochemically and ameliorated increased the levels of hyperemia, edema and degenerative changes histopathologically. In conclusion, AGM enhanced SIRT-1 levels to negatively regulate the transcription and activation of p-NF-kB/p65 which caused to ameliorate inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis.

    Ameliorative effects of pregabalin on LPS induced endothelial and cardiac toxicity
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Aşçı, Halil; Özmen, Özlem; Erzurumlu, Yalçın; Savaş, Hasan Basri; Temel, Esra Nurlu; İçten, Pelin; Hasseyid, N.
    We investigated the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects of pregabalin (PREG) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced sepsis related cardiotoxicity via NF-k beta pathways. We used 24 female Wistar albino rats divided into three groups: control, LPS treated and LPS + PREG treated. Total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant status (TAS), oxidative stress index (OSI), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), nuclear factor kappa beta (NF-k beta)/p65, p-NF-k beta/p65, caspase-3 (Cas-3) and cleaved Cas-3 were measured in cardiac tissues and creatine kinase MB (CKMB), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were measured in blood samples. Also, Cas-3, granulocyte-colony stimulating factors (G-CSF), interleukin-6 (IL-6), serum amyloid A (SAA) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were measured immunohistochemically in heart and aorta tissue. In the LPS group; the levels of CKMB, AST, LDH, TOS, OSI increased and TAS decreased. TNF-alpha, p-NF-k beta/p65 and Cas-3 protein levels also increased in the LPS group. Immunohistochemical evaluation of the heart and aorta revealed a significant increase in the levels of Cas-3, G-CSF, SAA, IL-6 and iNOS in the LPS group. PREG treatment restored all measurements to near normal. LPS induced cardiovascular toxicity was due to inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis. PREG ameliorated the damage by inhibition of NF-k beta phosphorylation.
