Role of Oxidative Stress in Ovarian Tissue After CO2-pneumoperitoneum Application-induced I/R
Because of cellular changes in response to ischemia and a following period of reperfusion, damages to organs and different tissues occur. There are several ongoing studies to enlighten the pathophysiological processes underlying these damages inflicted by ischemia/reperfusion. Gases (CO2) with low water content are used in pneumoperitoneum, which is a …
