Özet
BackgroundRoyal Jelly (RJ), an important product of apitherapy, has been traditionally used for its various health benefits, particularly for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune-modulatory properties. RJ’s ability to reduce oxidative stress, inflammation, and cellular damage has made it a promising candidate for preserving ovarian function and fertility during cancer treatments. Gemcitabine (GEM) is an antimetabolite chemotherapeutic drug known to cause ovarian toxicity. To date, there has been no study evaluating the protective effects of RJ specifically against GEM-induced ovarian damage, making this an original contribution to the field. This study investigated RJ’s protective effects against GEM-induced ovarian toxicity in rats.MethodThirty-two female Wistar-Albino rats were divided into four groups: Control, RJ, GEM, and GEM + RJ. GEM (200 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally, while RJ (100 …
