Increased plasma agmatine levels in patients with schizophrenia
(2013-04-02)Agmatine is an endogenous substance, synthesized from L-arginine, and it is proposed to be a new neurotransmitter. Preclinical studies indicated that agmatine may have an important role in the pathophysiology of ... -
Survey of Turkey’s endemic amphibians for chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis
(2014)We report a new survey for Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) in Turkey. We swabbed 228 individuals of 7 amphibian species (from 5 families) living in 2 locations (26-August National Park and the Turkish Lakes District) ... -
White-Rot Fungi in Bioremediation
(2013)Bioremediation is defined as the application of biological processes to the treatment of pollution. Most research on the field of bioremediation has focused on bacteria, and fungal bioremediation (mycoremediation) has also ... -
White-Rot Fungi in Bioremediation
(Springer, 2013)Bioremediation is defined as the application of biological processes to the treatment of pollution. Most research on the field of bioremediation has focused on bacteria, and fungal bioremediation (mycoremediation) has also ... -
Effects of α-lipoic acid on DNA damage, protein oxidation, lipid peroxidation, and some biochemical parameters in sub-chronic thinner-addicted rats
(2012)Abstract: The present study was carried out to determine the effects of sub-chronic thinner addiction on the oxidant− antioxidant balance, the relation between toxicity and oxidative stress, and a possible protective ... -
Evaluation of DNA Damage in Eurasian Marsh Frogs (Pelophylax ridibundus) by Comet Assay for Determination of Possible Pollution in the Different Lakes in Central Anatolia, Turkey
(2013)In the present study, adult Eurasian marsh frogs, Pelophylax ridibundus, and water samples were collected from a reference lake and three water bodies in central Anatolia, Turkey, to evaluate the water for chemical pollutants ... -
Evaluation of antibacterial, antioxidant and DNA protective capacity of Chenopodium album’s ethanolic leaf extract
(2013)We have investigated the antibacterial effects of Chenopodium album’s ethanolic leaf extract (CAE) on all the Gram (+) and Gram ( ) microorganisms and evaluated the protective effects of CAE on both yeast and human ... -
The effects of Corylus Avellana on serum lipid profile and oxidative stress in hyperlipidemic-diabetic rats
(2014-09-23)Background and Aim: There is limited evidence suggesting that nuts improve plasma antioxidant potential. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of hazelnut consumption on serum lipids, atherogenic indexes and ... -
Recently Emerging Signaling Landscape of Ataxia-Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) Kinase.
(2014)Research over the years has progressively and sequentially provided near complete resolution of regulators of the DNA repair pathways which are so important for cancer prevention. Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated kinase (ATM), ... -
Olive mill wastewater treatment in microbial fuel cells
(2013-10-29)Olive mill wastewaters create significant environmental issues in olive-processing countries. One of the most hazardous groups of pollutants in these wastewaters is phenolic compounds. Here, olive mill wastewater was used ... -
Efficacy of single-chamber microbial fuel cells for removal of cadmium and zinc with simultaneous electricity production
(2013-11-07)Simultaneous high power generation (3.6 W/m2) and high Cd (90%) and Zn (97%) removal efficiencies were demonstrated in a single chamber air-cathode microbial fuel cell (MFC). The maximum tolerable concentrations (MTCs) ... -
Effects of micro environmental factors on natural killer activity (NK) of beta thalassemia major patients.
(2013)The physiological mechanisms of decreased NK activity of b-Thalassemia major (BTM) patients are unknown. To assess in vitro effects of mononuclear cells and their cytokine secretion on NK activity, we compared activator ... -
CD8 lineage-specific regulation of interleukin-7 receptor expression by the transcriptional repressor Gfi1.
(2012)Interleukin-7 receptor α (IL-7Rα) is essential for T cell survival and differentiation. Glucocorticoids are potent enhancers of IL-7Rα expression with diverse roles in T cell biology. Here we identify the transcriptional ... -
Examination of age-dependent effects of fetal ethanol exposure on behavior, hippocampal cell counts, and doublecortin immunoreactivity in rats
(2013-10-29)Ethanol is known as a potent teratogen having adverse effects on brain and behavior. However, some of the behavioral deficits caused by fetal alcohol exposure and well expressed in juveniles ameliorate with maturation may ... -
Effects of Early Postnatal Alcohol Exposure on the Developing Retinogeniculate Projections in C57BL/6 Mice
(2013-05)Previous studies on the adverse effects of perinatal exposure to ethanol (EtOH) on the developing visual system mainly focused on retinal and optic nerve morphology. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether ... -
Cytoplasmic domain of delta subunit is important for the extra-synaptic targeting of GABA(A) receptor subtypes
(Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2014-09-16)GABAA receptors (GABAARs) are hetero-pentameric chloride channels and the primary sites for fast synaptic inhibition. We have expressed recombinant g2 and d subunits of GABAARs in cultured hippocampal neurons to analyze ...
