What is it about?
The purpose of this experimental study was to investigate the potential diagnostic value of the platelet activation marker SCUBE1 [signal peptide, CUB (complement C1r/C1s, Uegf, and Bmp1), and EGF (epidermal growth factor)-like domain-containing protein 1] and the adipocytokine chemerin in a prepubertal rat model of testicular torsion (TT).

Why is it important?
No statistically significant change was determined in SCUBE1 levels of rats exposed to torsion. Also, no significant difference was observed between SCUBE1 levels of rats exposed to torsion and those of the control group.
Perspectives
We observed no statistically significant differences when plasma SCUBE1 and chemerin levels of rats subjected to TT were compared with a control group in this study.
