Popis: Objectives:We aimed to investigate the potential use of the expression of apoptotic signaling pathway genes of rat in skin wound age estimation.Material and methods:For this purpose, we formed cutting tool injuries using a scalpel in an experimental model. Then, we assessed Caspase 3, 8 and 9 mRNA levels by using quantitative real-time PCR and protein levels by using immunohistochemistry in rat skin wounds. In addition, we used TUNEL assay to detect apoptotic cells.Results:We observed that Caspase 3 mRNA level significantly increased (2.1±0.4 folds) on day 3 (pConclusion:Our results suggest that time-dependent features of apoptotic factors might offer a potential tool in estimating wound age.
