Hypoxia induces cell death through excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and calcium (Ca2+) influx in cells TRPM2 cation channel is activated by oxidative stress. Zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), glutathione (GSH) have antioxidant properties several hypoxia-induced activity, ROS may be inhibited the Zn, Se, GSH treatments. We investigated effects on lipid peroxidation (LPO), cytotoxicity inhibition activity transfected HEK293 exposed to hypoxia defined as deficiency.We induced four...

Although there are numerous studies on the health impacts of electromagnetic field (EMF) mobile phone operation frequency 2100 MHz, published works present contradicting results. Long-term exposure to frequencies has unclear hazards. Therefore, it is important investigate molecular mechanism possible biological effects in and determine corresponding markers. Towards this end, study was designed assess effect 200 nM selenium (Se) cell viability% [trypan blue], cycle biomarker [cyclin D1]...

The use of mobile phones is becoming widespread with the development technology, and as a result, its effects on human health are more important every day. Studies have reported that electromagnetic field (EMF) emitted by may adverse biological systems. In order to evaluate effect zinc (Zn) C3H cancer fibroblast cells exposed 2100 MHz EMF, we analyzed cell viability%, nuclear factor kappa b (NF-κB) DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) activities. Cells were divided following groups: Control, sham...

Introduction: Pollution is a deformation of the natural condition earth with physical, chemical, and biological factors. Environmental pollution suppresses life balance has negative effect on living ecosystem its effects food chain.  Toxic metal easily enters to chain accumulates in body. Marine species are intensely exposed toxic metals, because habitats feeding habits, metals accumulate their Case: A 56-year-old obese male patient attended Ortakent-Yahsi Family Health Center (Bodrum,...

Son yıllarda yapılan çalışmalar bor bileşiklerinin biyolojik önemi ve insan sağlığı üzerine olası yararlı etkilerini vurgulamaktadır. Bunun yanında yüksek miktarda maruziyetinin olumsuz etkileri olabileceği bildirilmektedir. Borun tümör hücrelerinde anti-kanser anti-proliferatif etkiler gösterebileceği ile ilgili bilgiler bulunmakta, ancak bu etkilerin normal hücreleri nasıl etkileyebileceği henüz tam olarak bilinmemektedir. Çalışmamızda borik asidin (BA) hücre canlılığı/sitotoksisite...
