Abstract :In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effects of different diets on lipid peroxidation, antioxidants, proliferation and vasculogenesis in liver tissue. BALBC female rats insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(21); were divided as the group fed with standard chow insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SC);, the group fed with a ketogenic diet insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(KD); and the group fed with western diet insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(WD);. The rats were fed with tap water and a rat diet specially prepared according to the determined diets for four weeks. Liver tissue oxidative damage, proliferation and vasculogenesis were evaluated using spectrophotometric and immunohistopathological methods. At the end of the experiment, it was found that the highest weight gain was in the WD group and the least weight gain was in the KD group. The mean body weight of the WD group was statistically significantly higher compared to the SC and KD groups insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p 0.05);. These results revealed that ketogenic diet prevents tissue damage by decreasing lipid peroxidation in liver tissue as well as inducing cellular proliferation and vasculogenesis.
