Donkey milk and donkey kefir exhibit antiproliferative, antimutagenic antibacterial effects. We investigated the effects of on oxidative stress, apoptosis proliferation in Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) mice. Thirty-four adult male Swiss albino mice were divided into four groups as follows: group 1, administered 0.5 ml water; 2, water + EAC cells; 3, 4, cells. introduced 2.5 x 106 cells each animal by subcutaneous injection. Tap water, gavage for 10 days. Animals sacrificed day 11. After...
This study, based on a passive surveillance, has examined 21198 ticks which were detached from number of people who received hospital consultation and service following the complaints tick bites between years 2006 2011 in city Istanbul its vicinity. The have been evaluated terms species, developmental stage, gender, seasonal distribution, locality as urban rural areas. They belong to 21 species genera Ixodes, Hyalomma, Rhipicephalus, Haemaphysalis, Dermacentor, Argas, Ornithodoros Otobius....
Abstract This study aimed to investigate antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of a commercial product noni ( Morinda citrifolia ) juice. Carrageenan-induced rat paw edema was employed as inflammatory model. One control three experimental groups were formed. Experimental administered juice alone, juice+carrageenan, carrageenan alone. Oxidant capacity determined by d-ROMs test BAP test, respectively. Plasma concentrations endothelin-1 leptin measured ELISA. Measurements performed at...
Spirulina platensis is a microalga that may be source of antioxidants can reduce body fat deposition. Consumption high diet produces elevated blood lipid levels, inflammation and apoptosis. We investigated the possible effects S. on profile, liver apoptosis in rats fed diet. Sixty-four young male were divided into eight equal groups. The control group was basic experimental groups for 60 days prepared by mixing variable amounts 43% vegetable oil 10% cholesterol with or without 3% mixed basal...
Background/Aim: This study was designed to provide further evidence for the interactions between hydrogen sulfide (H<sub>2</sub>S) and nitric oxide (NO) in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Materials Methods: Rat hearts were studied with Langendorff technique using H<sub>2</sub>S donor sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS, 40 μM) cystathionine gamma-lyase (CTH or CSE) inhibitor DL-propargylglycine (PAG, 1 mM). NO synthase L-NG-nitroarginine methyl ester (L-NAME, 30 mg/kg, 7 days) administered before...
Abstract Ghrelin is a peptide hormone which plays important role in maintaining growth release and energy homeostasis vertebrates. Spirulina platensis (SP) has antioxidant hypolipidemic effects due to its ingredients. In this study we aimed investigate the of SP on testicular structure relation between ghrelin testosterone testis rats fed high fat diet (HFD). Sixty four young adult male were used divided 8 equal groups. Experimental groups received addition 10% cholesterol (CHL), 43%...
This study was performed in ticks collected with the flagging method from localities situated along Anatolian side of Istanbul to Bulgarian border Turkey which is under effect Black Sea climate.All were seasonally screened for presence B. burgdorferi s.l. and Rickettsia spp. pools.As a result, indicated agents revealed be common studied localities, Ixodes ricinus being predominant tick active throughout year.
Türkiye'de İlk Cryptosporidium hominis Enfeksiyonu Olgusuna İlişkin Olarak İnsanlarda CryptosporidiosisAim: Cryptosporidiosis is a worldwide zoonosis.Microscopic examinations may fail due to indistinctive morphological peculiarities of causative species.Hence, molecular diagnostics has become more important.Methods: Stool samples from 150 patients were examined using carbol-fuchsin stain determine spp.oocysts.Combined nested polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism...
Combined use of a chemotherapeutic agent and an autophagy inhibitor is novel cancer treatment strategy. We investigated the effects chloroquine (CQ) on lung pathology caused by both solid Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) doxorubicin (DXR). A control group eight experimental groups adult female mice were inoculated subcutaneously with 2.5 × 106 EAC cells. DXR (1.5 mg/kg 3 mg/kg) CQ (25 50 alone or in combination injected intraperitoneally days 2, 7 12 following inoculation Lung tissue samples...
Alongside increasing productivity in plant production, reducing crop losses has become a major focus for the struggle of today’s man against hunger. Allelopathy, an ecological phenomenon which organisms interfere with each other, can be useful strategy agricultural systems, especially weed management. In this study, allelopathic effects leaf water extracts from two species, Plantago lanceolata and P. major, on seed germination some plants, including wheat, sunflower, lentil, bean, carrot,...
Hyalomma scupense, H. excavatum and marginatum are globally important tick species, as well in Turkey, both terms of human animal health. The genome sizes these species were determined this study for the first time. From flow cytometric measurements, diploid female male scupense found to be 2.13 pg 1.75 pg, respectively, while 2.21 1.94 2.48 1.98 respectively. Differences size indicate X chromosome females males ticks because they have an XX:XO sex determination system. Thus, it was...
The aim of this study is to find out how activated inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and (NO) affect kidney tissue in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice whether its influence can be prevented by aminoguanidine (AG), a specific iNOS inhibitor. Twenty-four male were divided into four groups (n=6) receiving daily dose 100 mg.kg-1 AG for 90 days (Group AG), single 150 STZ STZ), followed administration STZ-AG), intraperitoneally injections saline only Control) days. Dispersion...
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients leads to increases health-care costs. However, it preventable, hospitals can decrease VAP rates. This study aims retrospectively assess rates the intensive care unit of Dr. Abdurrahman Yurtaslan Ankara Oncology Training Research Hospital University Health Sciences, reference Acinetobacter baumannii, one causative organisms.This enrolled a total 2277 hospitalized between...
The genus Giardia includes six species based on the morphological features of trophozoite and cyst forms. Of these, varani is found from water monitor Varanus salvator, while agilis, ardeae psittaci, microti muris, duodenalis amphibians, birds, rodents, mammals, respectively. (...)
