Abstract

Objectives: To investigate the effect of Ankaferd Blood Stopper (ABS), on renal tubular apoptosis and on expressions of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and apoptosis protease-activating factor-1 (Apaf-1) in the ipsilateral kidney after an experimentally formed partial nephrectomy in a rat model.
