Evidence-Based Information About Intermittent Fasting In Diabetes Patients: Useful Or Harmful?, Mustafa Altay

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Background/aim: One of the most important components of treatment for diabetic patients is diet and healthy nutrition therapy. Calorie restriction is effective and without cost increases its appeal for both patients and physicians. Unfortunately, continuous calorie restriction is a difficult method. For this reason, alternative calorie restriction methods, such as intermittent fasting (IF), have been investigated by some researchers. Materials and methods: IF refers to a wide range of diet programmes covering periods of eating and fasting, which vary according to the different regimens. In this article, first, some general information will enable us to understand the concept of IF, …

Complementary Medicines Used In Ulcerative Colitis And Unintended Interactions With Cytochrome P450-Dependent Drug-Metabolizing Enzymes, Alaatti̇n Şen

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an idiopathic, chronic inflammatory disease with multiple genetic and a variety of environmental risk factors. Although current drugs significantly aid in controlling the disease, many people have led to the application of complementary therapies due to the common belief that they are natural and safe, as well as due to the consideration of the side effect of current drugs. Curcumin, cannabinoids, wheatgrass, Boswellia, wormwood and Aloe vera are among the most commonly used complementary medicines in UC. However, these treatments may have adverse and toxic effects due to unintended interactions with drugs or drugmetabolizing enzymes such …

Sex Seils: Die Erotischen Drucke Sebald Behams Im Deutschland Der Renaissance, Alison G. Stewart

School of Art, Art History, and Design: Faculty Publications and Creative Activity

Nacktheit ist ein Markenzeichen der Renaissancekunst. Albrecht Dürers unkolorierter Kupferstich Adam und Eva von 1504 zeigt den ersten Mann und die erste Frau, antiken griechischen Skulpturen nachgebildet, als Aktfiguren, die lediglich mit Feigenblättern bedeckt sind.! Auf einer Rötelzeichnung Raffaels von 1515 - das Jahr notierte Dürer auf dem Blatt, das Raffael ihm geschenkt hatte - posieren zwei kräftige nackte Männer; einer stützt sich auf einen Stab, der andere zeigt auf etwas.2 Zwischen den Entstehungszeitpunkten dieser beiden Werke auf Papier trug Marcantonio Raimondi (um 1480 - um 1530) dazu bei, dass sich die Vorstellungswelt der Renaissance und die Darstellung von Nacktheit …

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

The Cre-LoxP technology, including the tamoxifen (TAM) inducible MerCreMer (MCM), is increasingly used to delineate gene function, understand the disease mechanisms, and test therapeutic interventions. We set to determine the effects of TAM-MCM on cardiac myocyte transcriptome. Expression of the MCM was induced specifically in cardiac myocytes upon injection of TAM to myosin heavy chain 6-MCM (Myh6-Mcm) mice for 5 consecutive days. Cardiac function, myocardial histology, and gene expression (RNA-sequencing) were analyzed 2 weeks after TAM injection. A total of 346 protein coding genes (168 up- and 178 down-regulated) were differentially expressed. Transcript levels of 85 genes, analyzed …

Brain Antigens Stimulate Proliferation Of T Lymphocytes With A Pathogenic Phenotype In Multiple Sclerosis Patients, Assaf Gottlieb, Hoai Phuong T Pham, John William Lindsey

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

A method to stimulate T lymphocytes with a broad range of brain antigens would facilitate identification of the autoantigens for multiple sclerosis and enable definition of the pathogenic mechanisms important for multiple sclerosis. In a previous work, we found that the obvious approach of culturing leukocytes with homogenized brain tissue does not work because the brain homogenate suppresses antigen-specific lymphocyte proliferation. We now report a method that substantially reduces the suppressive activity. We used this non-suppressive brain homogenate to stimulate leukocytes from multiple sclerosis patients and controls. We also stimulated with common viruses for comparison. We measured proliferation, selected the …

Cross-Talk Between Histone Methyltransferases And Demethylases Regulate Rest Transcription During Neurogenesis, Jyothishmathi Swaminathan, Shinji Maegawa, Shavali Shaik, Ajay Sharma, Javiera Bravo-Alegria, Lei Guo, Lin Xu, Arif Harmanci, Vidya Gopalakrishnan

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

The RE1 Silencing Transcription Factor (REST) is a major regulator of neurogenesis and brain development. Medulloblastoma (MB) is a pediatric brain cancer characterized by a blockade of neuronal specification. REST gene expression is aberrantly elevated in a subset of MBs that are driven by constitutive activation of sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling in cerebellar granular progenitor cells (CGNPs), the cells of origin of this subgroup of tumors. To understand its transcriptional deregulation in MBs, we first studied control of Rest gene expression during neuronal differentiation of normal mouse CGNPs. Higher Rest expression was observed in proliferating CGNPs compared to differentiating neurons. …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Although biodiesel-diesel blends are being widely used in diesel engines, investigations on its cold flow properties and crystallization behavior are still scarce. In this paper, poly(ethylene-vinyl acetate) (PEVA) pour point depressant and petroleum diesel were worked together to enhance the cold flow properties of soybean biodiesel. PEVA presented a better positive effect in reducing the cold filter plugging point (CFPP) of biodiesel blends. B40 treated with 1% PEVA exerted the best cold flow properties, and its CFPP was decreased by -14 °C. In addition, the crystallization behavior was changed variously.
