Abstract

Objective: We aimed to determine the effects of melatonin treatment on endometrial implants in an oopherectomized rat endomeriosis model.Material and Methods: This study is a prospective, randomised,controlled experimental study. It was carried out at the Experimenal Research Center of Yeditepe University (YUDETAM). Twenty-two,emale, non-pregnant, nulligravid Spraque-Dawley albino rats werencluded in our study. Endometriosis was surgically induced in oopherectomized rats. Rats were randomised into two groups: controlgroup and melatonin group. In the melatonin group, rats were treatedwith melatonin (20 mg/kg/day) for two weeks. After the operationswere performed to assess the regression of the endometriotic lesions,melatonin treatment was stopped. At the end of the sixth week nec-ropsies were performed to assess the rate of recurrence. The volumeand histopathological scores of endometriotic foci were examined.Results: Volumes of the endometriotic lesions significantly decreased in the melatonin group. Also, when the melatonin group wasanalysed within itself, endometriotic lesion volumes decreased andhistopathological scores increased significantly.Conclusion: Melatonin causes regression of the endometriotic lesions in rats and improvement in their histopathological scores.(J Turkish-German Gynecol Assoc 2013; 14: 81-6)

Özet

Amaç: Ooferektomize sıçan endometriozis modelinde melatoninin endometriotik odaklar üzerine etkisini incelemeyi amaçladık Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışma prospektif, randomize, kontrollü, deneysel bir çalışmadır. Çalışma Yeditepe Üniversitesi Deneysel Araştırma Merkezinde (YÜDETAM) yapıldı. Deneysel çalışmamıza 22 adet dişi, gebe olmayan, nulligravid Spraque-Dawley albino sıçan dahil edildi. Ooferektomize edilen sıçanlarda cerrahi olarak endometriozis oluşturuldu. Sıçanlar iki gruba ayrıldı: kontrol grubu ve melatonin grubu. Melatonin grubunda 2 hafta boyunca sıçanlara melatonin (20 mg/ kg/gün) tedavisi verildi. Endometriotik regresyonu değerlendirmek için operasyonlar yapıldıktan sonra melatonin tedavisi sonlandırıldı. Rekürrens oranlarını değerlendirmek için altıncı haftanın sonunda nekropsiler yapıldı. Endometriotik odakların hacim ve histopatolojik skorları değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Endometriotik lezyonların hacimleri melatonin grubunda anlamlı derecede azaldı. Ayrıca, melatonin grubu kendi içerisinde incelendiğinde endometriotik lezyonların hacimlerinin anlamlı derecede azaldı ve histopatolojik skorları anlamlı derecede arttı. Sonuç: Melatonin sıçanlarda endometriotik odakların gerilemesine ve histopatolojik skorların iyileşmesine neden olur. (J Turkish-German Gynecol Assoc 2013; 14: 81-6)
