Abstract

In this study, the therapeutic effects of Pistacia terebinthus L. subsp. Palaestina (terebinth) and Rhus coriaria L (sumac) plants on DMBA-induced breast cancer in 66 female Sprague-Dawley rats were investigated through biochemical analysis. The rats were divided into 6 groups as Control, DMBA (7.12-Dimethylbenzanthracene), PT (terebinth), RC (sumac), PT+DMBA and RC+DMBA. DMBA was administered to 8-week-old rats via gavage, a single dose of 80 mg/kg according to body weight. Aqueous extracts of terebinth and sumac were given orally to rats in antioxidant groups 3 days a week. In biochemical studies, changes in activities of the antioxidant enzymes CAT (catalase), GST (glutathione transferase), and SOD (superoxide dismutase) in brain tissues as well as total protein, MDA (malondialdehyde), GSH (glutathione), fatty acid, and vitamin levels were determined. Total protein levels generally reduced in the DMBA group compared to the control group (pBu çalışmada, dişi 66 Sprague-Dawley ratında DMBA ile indüklenen meme kanserine karşı Pistacia terebinthus L. subsp Palaestina (terebinth) ve Rhus coriaria L. (sumak)’nin iyileştirici etkileri biyokimyasal olarak incelendi. Sıçanlar, Kontrol, DMBA (7.12-Dimetilbenzantrasene), PT (menengiç), RC (sumak), PT+DMBA ve RC+DMBA olmak üzere 6 gruba ayrıldı. DMBA, vücut ağırlıklarına göre, tek doz 80 mg/kg olacak şekilde, gavaj yoluyla, 8 haftalık dişi Sprague-Dawley sıçanlara uygulandı. Antioksidan gruplarındaki ratlara oral yolla menengiç ve sumak’ın sulu ekstraktları verildi. Biyokimyasal çalışmalarda beyin dokusunda antioksidan enzimler olan CAT (katalaz), GST (glutatyon transferaz) ve SOD (süperoksit dismutaz) aktivitelerindeki değişiklikler, total protein, MDA, (malondialdehit) GSH (glutatyon), yağ asidi ve vitamin düzeyleri belirlendi. Toplam protein seviyelerinin genellikle DMBA grubunda kontrole göre azaldığı gözlendi (p
