Abstract
Objective
This study aimed to compare the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) and ozone therapy (OT) on ischemia-reperfusion injury in Sprague-Dawley rat rectus abdominis muscle (RAM) flaps through the analysis of oxidative stress markers.
Methods
This experimental study involved 36 adult Sprague-Dawley rats divided into five groups: HBO, OT, HBO + OT, Control, and Sham. Ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced in RAM flaps for 4 h. Levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured in serum samples on the 1st and 7th days using the ELISA method.
Results
SOD levels increased significantly on the 7th day in the HBO + OT group (p = 0.044). MPO levels were significantly elevated in the Sham and Control groups by day 7 (p = 0.049, p = 0.025). MDA levels increased significantly in the Control, OT, and HBO groups on day 7 (p = 0.028). While HBO and OT reduced oxidative stress, the combined HBO + OT therapy appeared to elevate oxidative stress markers over time.
Conclusion
HBO and OT therapies show individual efficacy in reducing oxidative stress during ischemia-reperfusion injury. While both therapies reduced oxidative damage, combining them might offer additional protection.
期刊介绍:
Open access, online only, peer-reviewed international journal in the Life Sciences, established in 2014 Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports (BB Reports) publishes original research in all aspects of Biochemistry, Biophysics and related areas like Molecular and Cell Biology. BB Reports welcomes solid though more preliminary, descriptive and small scale results if they have the potential to stimulate and/or contribute to future research, leading to new insights or hypothesis. Primary criteria for acceptance is that the work is original, scientifically and technically sound and provides valuable knowledge to life sciences research. We strongly believe all results deserve to be published and documented for the advancement of science. BB Reports specifically appreciates receiving reports on: Negative results, Replication studies, Reanalysis of previous datasets.
