ABSTRACTSpiral artery apoptosis plays a role in the process of abortion. Low Bcl2 expression found in abortion and in spiral artery. In pregnancy, Toxoplasmosis infection is found to increase apoptosis in spiral arteries. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) improves the expression of Bcl-2. This study aims to determine the effects of Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy in enhancing the expressions of Bcl2 in artery spiralis of pregnant rats infected with tachyzoite of Toxoplasma gondii. This is an experiment with a ‘randomized control group of post-test only design’ on 37 Rattus novergicus Sprague Dawley rats. Rats were divided into four groups. The group A is pregnant rats infected with 103 tachyzoites via intraperitoneal injection and received 10 sessions of HBOT 2.4 ATA in 3x30 minutes. Group B is pregnant only and received HBOT. Group C is pregnant and infected with tachyzoite but did not received HBOT. And the last, Group D is pregnant rats with no infection and did not received HBOT. Examinations of Bcl2 expressions were performed on day-5 after HBOT (twice a day). The Bcl2 expression was measured with immunohistochemistry. All data were tested with One-way ANOVA from SPSS 21.  There is an increased expression of Bcl2 spiralis artery in the Group A. There was a significant difference between Group A and Group C with a value of p=0.042. HBOT can increase the expression of Bcl2 from the spiral arteries of rats, in the provision of HBOT 2.4 ATA for 3x30 minutes, 10 times in 5 days.Keywords: Toxoplasma gondii, tachyzoite, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, Bcl2, spiralis arteryCorrespondence to: [email protected]  ABSTRAK Apoptosis arteri spiralis berperan dalam proses aborsi. Ekspresi Bcl2 rendah ditemukan pada aborsi dan di arteri spiral. Pada kehamilan, infeksi Toxoplasmosis ditemukan meningkatkan apoptosis pada arteri spiralis. Terapi Oksigen Hiperbarik (HBOT) meningkatkan ekspresi Bcl-2. Ini adalah penelitian eksperimental dengan desain post-test only pada 37 hamil Rattus novergicus Sprague Dawley, maka tikus dibagi menjadi 4 kelompok. Grup A HBOT adalah tikus hamil yang terinfeksi tachyzoite yang menerima terapi 10 sesi HBOT 2.4 ATA dalam 3x30 menit; kelompok B adalah Hamil saja dan tidak mendapat HBOT; kelompok C Hamil dan terinfeksi tachyzoite T.gondii tetapi tidak menerima HBOT; dan kelompok D adalah tikus hamil normal. Setiap tikus hamil yang terinfeksi diberi 103 Tachyzoite Toxoplasma gondii melalui intraperitoneal. Pemeriksaan ekspresi Bcl2 dilakukan pada hari ke-5 setelah HBOT (dua kali sehari). Tikus terbunuh dan kadar Bcl2 Arteri spiralis diukur dengan pemeriksaan Immunohistokimia. Semua data dianalisis dengan uji ANOVA dengan Program SPSS 21.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can increase oxygen delivery to tissues and stimulate the formation of H2O2 as a secondary messenger for phosphorylation of nuclear factor kappa beta (NF-kB) which plays an important role in the transcription of the anti apoptotic gene. This study aimed to determine the effects of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) in enhancing the expressions of Bcl-2 in the myometrium of pregnant rats infected by Toxoplasma gondii. This study was an experimental study with a randomized control group of post-test only and designed by 37 pregnant Rattus norvegicus Sprague Dawley. Randomly, the rats were divided into four groups. Group A is infected pregnant rats that exposed by 10 sessions of HBOT 2.4 ATA in 3x30 minutes. Group B is non-infected pregnant rats and exposed by 10 sessions of HBOT 2.4 ATA in 3x30 minutes. Group C is infected pregnant rats without any exposure. Group D is non-infected pregnant rats without any exposure. Each infected pregnant rat was given a 103 tachyzoite of T.gondii by intraperitoneal injection. Bcl-2 expressions were measured through immunohistochemistry. All data were analyzed using ANOVA test through SPSS 21 program application. There was a significant difference in Bcl-2 expression between Group A and Group C because p<α (p<0.017). HBOT can increase the expression of Bcl-2 from infected and not infected rat myometrium, in the provision of HBOT 2.4 ATA for 3x30 minutes, twice a day for 5 days.

PURPOSE: To evaluate hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) after esophagojejunal anastomosis in a rat experimental model and the effect of HBO on the healing of esophagojejunal anastomosis in gastrectomized rats. METHODS: Forty adult male Wistar rats, weighing 322 g to 506 g, were divided into two random groups. In group A (control group), 20 rats were subjected to total gastrectomy. In group B, 20 rats were similarly gastrectomized, but also received postoperative HBO treatment for 90 minutes/day for seven days. All rats were sacrificed on the eighth postoperative day and evaluated according to the following study variables: a) presence of anastomotic fistula; b) evaluation of esophagojejunal anastomosis healing by measuring the breaking strength at the suture line as per Hendriks & Mastboom; and c) determining the collagen concentration in the anastomosis, as per Kovács criteria. For the comparative statistical analysis between groups, Student's "t" test was used. A value of p<0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: There was a 20% mortality rate. There were five deaths in group A and three in group B (p=N.S.). There was only one anastomotic fistula in each group, and neither caused any morbidity or death. Breaking strength measured at the suture line (p=0.528) and collagen concentration determined at the esophagojejunal anastomosis (p=0.89) were not significantly different between Groups A and B. CONCLUSION: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy did not affect the healing process of esophagojejunal anastomosis.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on the survival and weight of rats submitted to subtotal splenectomy and on the viability and growth of the inferior pole. METHODS: Forty Wistar rats underwent subtotal splenectomy with preservation of the inferior pole and distributed into two groups: Group A (n=20) - not treated with hyperbaric oxygen, Group B (n=20) - treated with hyperbaric oxygen. These groups were divided into two subgroups of 10 animals each, according to the time of euthanasia, 15th and 45th days. The survival and weight of the animals were recorded. The inferior pole was measured, weighed and morphologically analyzed. RESULTS: All animals survived. The weight of the animals increased in all subgroups, but decreased on the 10th day in the subgroups treated with hyperbaric oxygen (p<0.001). The viability of the inferior pole was more evident in animals treated on the 15th day, but did not differ on the 45th day. The growth of the inferior pole has not occurred on the 15th day but on the 45th day after surgery in untreated animals (p<0.01) and treated animals (p<0.05). Vascular and cellular increase in treated animals was significantly higher than in untreated ones. CONCLUSION: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy did not affect the survival of animals but reduced their weight. It improved the viability of the inferior splenic pole, but did not interfere with their growth.

PURPOSE: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HOT) consists of intermittent inhalations of 100% oxygen at a pressure higher than 1 atm. It is an important adjuvant therapy in pathological processes like soft tissue infections, radiation injury, gas gangrene, osteomyelitis and decompressive diseases. Cisplatin, a potent antineoplastic drug, widely used in cancer therapy is highly ototoxic causing bilateral, irreversible damage to the hearing of high frequency sounds (4-8 KHz). OBJECTIVE:This experimental study conducted at the Faculty of Medicine of Ribeirao Preto, University of Sao Paulo aims to evaluate Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy as an otoprotection agent against drug toxicity. METHODS: Albino guinea pigs were divided into two groups: in Group A, 5 animals (10 cochlea) received cisplatin, i. p., 8.0 mg/kg/day during three days and afterwards were submitted to HOT; in Group B, 3 animals (6cochlea) received cisplatin, i. p. 8.0mg/kg/day during three days. Guinea pigs were evaluated by acoustic otoemissions (AOE) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). RESULTS: Group B animals showed loss of auditory functions as measured by AOE and distorted outer hair cells by SEM. In Group A, outer hair cells shown by SEM images were mostly preserved. CONCLUSION: It is presumed that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy has a protector effect against cisplatin ototoxicity.
