Evaluation of Advanced Oxidation Protein Products (AOPP) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) Tissue Levels in Patients with Nasal Polyps
AbstractThe aim of this study is to eveluate levels of advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) which are thought to increase in the polyp tissue and superoxide dismutase (SOD), an antioxidant enzyme, with using specthrophotometry in polyp tissue and healthy mucosa. 30 nasal polyp patients without inflammatory disease except for nasal polyposis were included in the study. The control group consisted of 18 patients who did not have allergy, asthma, inflammatory and granulomatous disease and planned surgery due to septum deviation and concha hypertrophy. AOPP and SOD tissue levels were measured by spectrophotometry in poly...

Effect of Acacia Honey on Transforming Growth Factor-Beta-1-Induced Myofibroblast Differentiation and Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Production in Nasal Polyp Fibroblasts.
CONCLUSION: Acacia honey can inhibit TGF-β1-induced myofibroblast differentiation and MMP-9 production in nasal fibroblasts. These results suggest that acacia honey might be useful for inhibiting nasal polyp formation. PMID: 30997818 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
