Effect Of Vitamin E On Kidney Preservation Using Isolated Perfused Dog Kidney, Adnan Şahi̇n, Cem Algin, Çağatay Sezgi̇n, Enver İhti̇yar

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Unsuccessful cadaveric kidney transplantation still remains as an important problem in organ transplantation. Cold storage solutions are not very efficient for kidney preservation. Vitamin E is an important dietary antioxidant, which may play a vital role in preventing free radical perfusion injury. We investigated the effect of vitamin E on kidney preservation with Euro-Collins (EC) solution using the isolated perfused dog kidney model. Recipients were randomly divided into 3 groups: group 1 (n = 6), immediately reperfused with EC solution, given laboratory pelleted diet and drinking water for 4 weeks; and group 2 (n = 6), flushed, and stored with …

Soft Tissue Profile Changes In Anatolian Turkish Girls And Boys Following Orthodontic Treatment With And Without Extractions, Serpi̇l Hazar, Sercan Akyalçin, Hayal Boyacioğlu

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

The choice of extraction is critical in treatment planning, and its impact on the final facial appearance can be quite dramatic. Evaluation of facial profile esthetics both before and after treatment should be made cautiously. An orthodontist should be conscious of changes brought about by treatment and by late adolescent growth as well as differences in the dentofacial structures of various ethnic groups. The purpose of this cephalometric investigation was to determine the changes in the soft tissue profile of Turkish children treated with and without extractions. An assessment of pre- and post-treatment faces, chosen from our clinical records by …

Recovery Of 1-Chloro-2,4-Dinitrobenzene Detoxification By N-Acetyl- L-Cysteine In Glutathione Predepleted Human Erythrocytes, Deni̇z Yildiz, C.Işil Kuran Jan 2004

Recovery Of 1-Chloro-2,4-Dinitrobenzene Detoxification By N-Acetyl- L-Cysteine In Glutathione Predepleted Human Erythrocytes, Deni̇z Yildiz, C.Işil Kuran

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Glutathione is an important thiol-containing compound involved in the detoxification process in erythrocytes. Its thiol group reacts with a variety of xenobiotics in a glutathione S-transferase catalyzed reaction to form conjugates that are effluxed from the erythrocytes by an ATP dependent transport mechanism. A well studied experimental system is the transport of the conjugate of glutathione and 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene. We investigated whether N-acetyl-L-cysteine protects the free-SH content and restores 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene detoxification in erythrocytes or replaces glutathione in detoxification process in glutathione predepleted erythrocytes. Our results indicate that N-acetyl-L-cysteine restores the intracellular free-SH content following depletion by 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and N-ethylmaleimide. N-acetyl-L-cysteine (10 …

Conventional wisdom holds that defense industry consolidation resulted from decreased defense spending. However, we maintain that understanding dynamic changes in key defense institutions helps provide a more complete explanation for observed consolidation. Specifically, we examine the interaction of evolving technology and changing institutions. Institutions reviewed include procurement policies, weapons requirements process and the procurement organizations. We take an initial look at the industry and highlight how these changes influenced transaction costs in the defense industry more fully explain the forces driving consolidation and provide greater insight to policy makers seeking to improve the performance of the defense industry.

Characterization Of The Regulatory Gene, Mpkb, By Overexpression Studies In The Model Fungus, Aspergillus Nidulans, Maie M. Seif Jan 2004

Characterization Of The Regulatory Gene, Mpkb, By Overexpression Studies In The Model Fungus, Aspergillus Nidulans, Maie M. Seif

Honors Capstones

The main goal of this research was to understand the function of the mpkB gene (a mitogen activated protein kinases gene, MAPK) in the model fungus Aspergillus nidulans. Due to the similarity in DNA sequence with other homologous genes found in other fungi, such as Fus3 and Kss 1 genes in yeast, it is predicted that mpkB will also have a similar function. This research was conducted by transforming A. nidulans with a plasmid containing the mpkB gene attached to a strong inducible promoter, ale A. The plasmids also contain an auxotrophic marker for selection purposes, trpC. Results of this …
