Its cytoprotective effect mainly depends on its pleiotropic properties by modulating inflammatory mediators such as IL-1\u03b2, IL-6, and TNF-\u03b1. This study aims to test the possible therapeutic effect of ABS in the treatment of erosive and inflammatory conditions occurring in the uterine cervix.  METHODS: Twenty-four female Wistar Albino rats were used in the present study. Trichloracetic acid was applied intravaginally to establish an experimental rat model of cervicitis. The rats were randomly divided into three groups: group I (injury), group II (injury+isotoinc saline), and group III (injury+ABS). After 3 estrous cycles of ABS and isotonic saline treatment, the amount of inflammation, vascular congestion and erosion were evaluated in the cervical tissues by using a modified semi-quantitative scale of 0-3. Immunohistochemical staining with monoclonal antibodies against IL-1\u03b2 was also performed.  RESULTS: Compared with group I and II, the ABS group showed the least inflammatory cell infiltration, vascular congestion and cervical erosion, compared with the ABS group prominent IL-1\u03b2 staining observed in group I and group II.  CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that ABS is a highly effective alternative to induce normal cervical epithelium and can be used safely in the treatment of cervical inflammation with or without cervical erosion.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/1806-9282.65.2.183","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,16]],"date-time":"2019-03-16T16:29:15Z","timestamp":1552753755000},"page":"183-190","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["An immunohistochemistry and histopathological study of ankaferd blood stopper in a rat model of cervical inflammation"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"65","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0667-6090","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fatma","family":"Beyazit","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Canakkale Onsekiz Mart Universitesi,  Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1817-2241","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Basak","family":"Buyuk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Canakkale Onsekiz Mart Universitesi,  Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"530","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,2]]},"reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e30","DOI":"10.1097\/LGT.0000000000000225","article-title":"Chronic cervicitis: presenting features and response to therapy","volume":"20","author":"Mattson SK","year":"2016","journal-title":"J Low Genit Tract Dis"},{"issue":"4","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"198","DOI":"10.1097\/00007435-199207000-00003","article-title":"Mucopurulent cervicitis as predictor of chlamydial infection and adverse pregnancy outcome.
