Özet
Purpose The study aimed to evaluate the possible preventive efect of two concentrations (3 and 5% w/w) of Eugenia jambolana (EJ) extract against 5-FU-induced mucositis. Method Sixteen adult rats were separated into four groups: two control and two preventive groups. Animals in Groups 1, 2, and 3 were injected intraperitoneally with 60 mg/kg/day of 5-FU on Day 1 followed by 150 mg/kg/day on Day 5. The rats in Group 4 (negative control) were given physiological saline at the same times and doses. Furthermore, on the ffth day of the study, the cheek and sublingual mucosa were irritated by external superfcial scratches using the tip of an 18-G needle, followed by the application 15 µL of 20% acetic acid, after which 3 and 5% EJ w/w gels were applied topically for animals in Groups 2 and 3, respectively. Results The weight and the mucositis scores were recorded. Antioxidant and anti-infammatory markers and biochemical tests were analyzed. Signifcant diferences were found between the study groups in weight loss, clinical mucositis scores, mortality rates, and antioxidant and anti-infammatory parameters. Conclusion The preventive efect of 3% gel was signifcant, with no mortality rate, making it an option for preventive strategies..
