To compare the antiallergic efficacy of 1% caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), 0.1% olopatadine hydrochloride, and 0.1% dexamethasone sodium phosphate. Materials and methods: Experimental allergic conjunctivitis was provoked by a mast cell activator (compound 48/80) in 31 New Zealand rabbits. The rabbits were divided into 3 groups, and 1% CAPE, 0.1% olopatadine hydrochloride, and 0.1% dexamethasone sodium phosphate were instilled 30 min before and 15 min after the provocation. The edema and hyperemia in the experimental (right) eyes and control (left) eyes were scored in each group. Anterior segment photographs and conjunctival samples for histopathological evaluation and scoring were taken. …

Intestinal obstruction (IO) induces bacterial translocation due to failure of the intestinal barrier function. Following bacterial overgrowth, its degradation products play a decisive role in the development of systemic septic complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) on bacterial translocation and intestinal damage in an IO model in rats. Materials and methods: Complete IO was created in the distal ileum of rats by a single 4-0 silk suture. A total of 21 Wistar albino rats were randomized into 3 groups: Group 1, Sham (n = 7); Group 2, IO (n …
