Özet

Background: Selenium plays a role in the prevention of oxidative damage and has been linked to regulatory functions in cell growth, apoptosis, cell survival, and cytotoxicity. Melatonin has an antioxidant effect, which protects against a number of free radical species. Given its antioxidant properties, melatonin has been widely known to inhibit neuronal apoptosis. We examined the cytoprotective effects of melatonin and selenium in rat olfactory sensory neurons after rhinosinusitis by immunohistochemical evaluation of olfactory bulb mucosa.
