ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Purpose: To investigate the effect of givinostat treatment in acetic acid-induced ulcerative colitis model in rats. Methods: Thirty male Wistar albino rats were used. Rats were randomly divided into three equal groups, and colitis was induced on 20 rats by rectal administration of %4 solutions of acetic acid. Twenty rats with colitis were randomly divided into two groups. %0.9 NaCl (saline) solution was administered intraperitoneally to the first group of rats (saline group, n=10) at the dose of 1 mL/kg/day. Givinostat was administered intraperitoneally to the second group rats (Givinostat group, n=10) at the dose of 5 mg/kg/day. Samples were collected for biochemical analysis. Colon was removed for histopathological and biochemical examinations. Results: Plasma tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), pentraxin-3 (PTX-3), and malondialdehyde levels were significantly decreased in the givinostat group compared to the saline group (p<0.05, p<0.001, and p<0.001 respectively; p<0.001, p<0.001, and p<0.001, respectively). Colon TNF-α and prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF-2) levels were significantly decreased (p<0.05, and p<0.001, respectively). The givinostat group had a significantly lower histologic score than saline group (p<0.001, and p<0.001, respectively). Conclusions: Givinostat, a good protector and regenerator of tissue and an anti-inflammatory agent, may be involved in the treatment of colitis in the future.
