Objective:
The polyphenolic compound, resveratrol (3, 4’, 5-trihydroxystilbene),
trans-resveratrol is a natural phytoalexin that exists in many different foods
such as grape peel and seed, peanut, mulberry and blueberry. Molasses is a
natural food obtained by boiling and concentrating fruit juices known to be
rich in minerals such as iron, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, calcium and
magnesium, and phosphoric acid, formic acid, organic acids and some vitamins.
Polyphenolic compounds are natural antioxidants and are known to have
protective effects against tissue damage caused by reactive oxygen species
(ROS). In this study, we aimed to investigate the protective effects of grape
molasses and resveratrol on ovarian damage induced by 7, 12-dimethylbenz [a]
anthracene (DMBA).
Methods:
A total of 42 old female Wistar Albino rats, aged 18 weeks were divided into
six groups. 10 mg/kg DMBA was injected in the rats in DMBA group subcutaneously
on day 0 and day 7 while grape molasses feed with 20% grape molasses was given
along with DMBA application to the rats in DMBA + grape molasses group.
Resveratrol was administered by subcutaneous injection at 10 mg/kg/day to the
DMBA + Resveratrol group, while only feed with 20% grape molasses was given to
the grape molasses group. Resveratrol was administered by subcutaneous
injection at 10 mg/kg/day to the resveratrol group.
Results:
GSH activity between the control group and molasses group,
DMBA and DMBA + molasses groups and the control group and the DMBA + grape
molasses groups was found statistically significant. Regarding the NO activity,
the difference between the DMBA and resveratrol groups, DMBA and DMBA +
resveratrol groups and the grape molasses and resveratrol groups was found
statistically significant. MDA activity between DMBA + resveratrol and DMBA +
grape molasses groups, and DMBA + grape molasses and grape molasses groups was
found statistically significant.
Conclusion:
Molasses as one of the most important nutrient sources of
Eastern and Central Anatolia was observed to decrease ovarian tissue oxidative
damage induced with DMBA compared to resveratrol.
