    Effect of Graviola Oil Extract on Anti-obesity Effect and Adipokine (Apelin and Adiponectin) Response in High Fat Diet-induced Obese Rats
    (Agricultural Research Communication Centre, 2025) Erkilic, T. Orkun; Bayraktar, B.
    Background: This study aims to investigate the anti-obesity effect of GOE with adipokine (apelin and adiponectin) response at different doses (100 and 200 mg/kg) of GOE in normal healthy and obese rats with High-fat diet (HF). Methods: In this study, 36 adult male Wistar albino rats, aged between 8-10 weeks, were used. 6 groups were created, with 6 rats in each group: Control (C), Rat group without GOE and HF application, G100 (GOE 100 mg/kg group given with oral gavage route of administration (OGRA), G200 (GOE 200 mg/kg group given with OGRA), HFC (HF control group): no HF and no GOE group), HF100 (rats receiving HF were 100 mg/kg graviola oil extract added to their diet), HF200 (rats receiving HF were 200 mg/kg graviola oil extract added to their diet). Blood samples were taken from the tail vein (vena caudalis) of all on days 0 and 60 of the study. Apelin and adiponectin levels in the serum samples were measured by ELISA method. Result: In the present study, a significant increase (p<0.01) was observed in the mean serum apelin level in the HF groups at the end of the 60 day after HF induction, while a significant decrease (p<0.01) was also detected in the adiponectin level. On the other hand, when examined in terms of BW, the most significant decrease due to GOE addition in the HF groups, i.e. the anti-obesity effect, was determined in the HFG200 mg/kg group (p<0.01). As a result, it was concluded that GOE may be safe and beneficial when administered at a dose of 200 mg/kg in obesity-induced rats.

    Effect of Jackfruıt Pulp Extract on Serum Nesfatın-1 and Vısfatın Levels in Streptozotocın-induced Rats
    (Agricultural Research Communication Centre, 2025) Erkilic, T. Orkun; Bayraktar, B.
    Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different amounts of jackfruit pulp extract (JPE) in the diets on serum nesfatin-1 and visfatin levels in Streptozotocin (STZ)-induced Type 1 diabetic rats. Methods: In this study, 64 adult male Wistar albino rats, aged between 8-10 weeks, were used. 8 groups were created, with 8 rats in each group: Control (C), J100 (JPE 100 mg/kg group given with oral gavage route of administration (OGRA), J200 (JPE 200 mg/kg group given with OGRA), J300 (JPE 300 mg/kg group given with OGRA); STZ 55 mg/kg i.p administered group, DJ100 (D+100 mg/kg JPE), DJ200 (D + 200 mg/kg JPE), DJ300 (D). + 300 mg/kg JPE). The study lasted a total of 31 days, including adaptation (7 days), induction of diabetes (3 days) and trial period (21 days). Blood samples were taken from the tail vein (Vena caudalis) of all subjects on days 0 and 21 of the study. Nesfatin-1 and visfatin levels in the serum samples were measured by ELISA method. Result: As a result, in the diabetes groups of our study, the most significant increase in the mean serum nesfatin-1 level and the most significant decrease in the mean serum visfatin level occurred in the DJ200 groups at the end of the 21st day due to the addition of JPE (p<0.05). As a result, it was concluded that JPE may be safe and beneficial when administered at a dose of 200 mg/kg in diabetic groups.

    Revealing the Behavioral Effects of Hair Dye Exposure in Rats by Sociability, Anxiety and Recognition Assessments
    (Agricultural Research Communication Centre, 2025) Ozcan, G. Boyuk; Bozok, U. G.; Korkusuz, B. B.; Demirboga, B.; Rabetian, S.; Erkilic, T. Orkun
    Background: Most people use hair dye to change their hair color. The aim of this study was to investigate how hair dye affects rat behavioral tests. Methods: This study examines the effects of hair dye exposure on the Three-Chambered Sociability, open field, elevated plus maze and novel object recognition tests. Group 1 (n=8) was dyed twice, Group 2 (n=8) was dyed four times, Group 3 (n=8) was dyed eight times and Group 4 (n=8) was water-treated and dried eight times. Result: The control group (Group 4) sniffed certain objects more in the first occupied cage. The groups exposed to less dye explored for longer periods (p<0.05 higher in Groups 1 and 2 than in the control group). In the open field test, Group 2 showed more scratching, hunger and urination. The control group showed more cage interaction than the other groups (p<0.05). In the elevated plus maze test, no difference in time was found between the groups. In conclusion, hair dye chemicals may affect rat behavior, but neurotoxicity and oxidative stress tests are required to confirm this.

    The Effect of Cannabidiol on Myokine, Cerebral and Cardiac Response in Rats with Sepsis Induced by Cecal Ligation and Punture Method
    (Agricultural Research Communication Centre, 2025) Erkilic, T. Orkun; Bayraktar, B.
    Background: the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Cannabidiol on myokine (Irisin), cerebral (BDNF) and cardiac (cTnI) responses in sepsis-induced rats by Cecal Ligation Perforation (CLP) method. Methods: In this study, 40 adult male Wistar albino rats, aged between 8-10 weeks, were used. 5 groups were created, with 8 rats in each group: Control (C), Sham (S), CLP, CLP+CBD 2.5 mg/kg, CLP+CBD 5 mg/kg group. Rats in groups C and Sham were sacrificed at the end of the 10th hour and intracardiac blood was taken immediately afterwards. In groups CLP, CLP+2.5 mg/kg, CLP+5 mg/kg, intra-abdominal sepsis was induced and at the end of the 10th( )hour after sepsis occurred with CLP application, rats were sacrificed and intracardiac blood was taken immediately afterwards. Irisin, BDNF and cTnI levels in the serum samples were measured by ELISA method. Result: In the present study, mean serum irisin, BDNF and levels were determined to be at the lowest level in the CLP group, while cTnI levels were at the highest level (p<0.01). In CLP groups, serum irisin and BDNF levels increased due to CBD addition and the most significant decrease in cTnI levels occurred in 5 mg/kg CBD groups. As a result, it was concluded that CLP may be safe and beneficial when administered at a dose of 5 mg/kg in sepsis-induced rats.
