Anticancerogenic Effects of Silymarin on Diethylnitrosamine-Induced Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Wistar Rats

Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the anticancerogenic effect of Silimarin by immunohistochemical methods on Diethylnitrosamine (DEN) induced Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) model in Wistar rats. Fifty male Wistar-Albino rats aging 2 months were randomly divided into 5 equal groups. The Control group rats were given pellet feed and drinking water for 20 weeks. The Sham group rats were injected intraperitoneally Propylene glycol dissolved in %0.9 NaCl three times a week. The Silymarin group rats were injected intraperitoneally 100 mg/kg Silymarin three times a week for 20 weeks. The DEN group rats were injected intraperitoneally 50 mg/kg DEN once a week for 20 weeks. The DEN+Silymarin group rats were injected 50 mg/kg DEN once a week for 20 weeks. Silymarin at a dose of 100 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally for 21 weeks, three times a week, starting 1 week before DEN administration. At the end of 21 weeks, macroscopically multifocal nodular structures were detected in the DEN and DEN+Silymarin group. A mix pattern of trabecular and acinar structures of HCC was observed in DEN and DEN+Silymarin groups. Besides; No statistically significant results were found between DEN and DEN + Silymarin groups in terms of iNOS, Nitrotyrosine, PCNA, GSTPi, MMP-9, HPIP and TUNEL staining (P > 0.05).

Wistar Ratlarında Dietilnitrozamin Uygulanarak Oluşturulan Hepatoselüler Karsinom Modelinde Silimarinin Antikanserojenik Etkileri

Öz

Bu çalışmada Wistar ratlarında Dietilnitrozamin (DEN) uygulaması yapılarak oluşturulan hepatoselüler karsinom (HCC) modelinde, Silimarin’in antikanserojenik etkileri immunohistokimyasal yöntemlerle araştırılması amaçlandı. 50 adet 2 aylık Wistar Albino cinsi erkek rat rastgele olacak şekilde 5 gruba ayrıldı. Kontrol grubundaki ratlara 20 hafta boyunca pelet yem ve içme suyu verildi. Sham grubundaki hayvanlara % 0.9 NaCl içerisinde çözdürülmüş propilen glikol intraperitoneal yolla haftada 3 kez olmak üzere 20 hafta boyunca verildi. DEN grubundaki hayvanlara 50 mg/kg dozunda haftada 1 kez olmak üzere 20 hafta boyunca DEN uygulaması yapıldı. DEN+Silimarin grubundaki ratlara DEN uygulamasından 1 hafta önce başlayacak şekilde 100 mg/kg dozunda haftada 3 kez olmak üzere 21 hafta boyunca intraperitoneal yolla Silimarin uygulandı. Silimarin grubundaki ratlara 100 mg/kg dozunda 20 hafta boyunca intraperitoneal yolla haftada 3 kez olmak üzere Silimarin uygulandı. 21 hafta sonunda DEN ve DEN+Silimarin gruplarında makroskobik olarak multifokal nodüler yapılar tespit edildi. Mikroskobik incelemeler sonucunda DEN ve DEN+Silimarin gruplarında HCC’nin trabeküler ve asiner paternini içeren miks tipi tespit edildi. iNOS, Nitrotirozin, PCNA, GSTPi, MMP-9, HPIP ve TUNEL boyamaları sonucunda DEN ve DEN+Silimarin grupları arasında istatistiki karşılaştırmada anlamlı sonuç bulunamadı (P > 0.05).
