Antimicrobial Activity And Characteristics Of Bacteriocins Produced By Vaginal Lactobacilli, Şengül Alpay Karaoğlu, Faruk Aydi̇n, S. Sirri Kiliç, Ali̇ O. Kiliç
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
The aim of this study is to test the production of bacteriocin in vaginal Lactobacilli and determining the characterization and antibacterial activity of this bacteriocin. For this reason 100 Lactobacillus strains were isolated and identified from vaginal swab samples of 75 women who attended obstetric and gynecology clinics. It was determined that six of 100 Lactobacillus strains produced bacteriocin. The antibacterial activity of bacteriocins was examined and found to be effective on vaginal L. gasseri, L. acidophilus, Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14018 and Pseudomonas aeroginosa ATCC 10145. We also found that bacteriocins were sensitive to proteinase enzymes and alkalinity, but resistant …

Immunization Of Mice With Plasmid Dna Encoding Hepatitis B Virus Core Antigen (Hbcag), Yasemi̇n Bulut, Hakan Bulut, Mehmet Zi̇ya Doymaz
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
The aim of this study was to investigate the antibody response following immunization with plasmid vector DNA containing the hepatitis B virus core antigen (HBcAg) gene of a hepatitis B virus (HBV) isolated from a patient in Turkey. A HBcAg gene fragment was cloned into a pcDNA 3 eukaryotic expression vector. After confirmation of the cloning of the HBcAg gene, the expressing vector based HBcAg was used in DNA immunization experiments. Four-to 6-week-old Balb/c mice were immunized with HBcAg expressing plasmids and the anti-HBcAg antibody responses of the mice were evaluated by enzyme immunoassay (EIA). The results of this study …

Lipid Peroxidation, Nitrate And Nitrite Levels In Eclamptic And Intrauterine Growth Retarded Pregnancies, Hati̇ce Paşaoğlu, Nesli̇han Bukan, Gülsen Bulduk, Şevki̇ Çelen
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
In this study we investigated nitric oxide metabolites nitrate+nitrite and lipid peroxidation product (malonyldialdehyde: MDA) related to the pathogenesis of eclampsia and intrauterine growth retarded (IUGR) pregnancy. Plasma nitrate+nitrite levels were higher in the eclamptic (31.6 ± 16.7 µmol/L p < 0.001) and IUGR (24.3 ± 9.5 µmol/L p < 0.005) groups than in the control group (18.8 ± 6.9 µmol /L). Plasma MDA levels were higher in the eclamptic group (5.5 ± 2.5 nmol/ml (p < 0.05) but not significantly different in the IUGR (3.4 ± 2.4 nmol/ml p > 0.05) group than control group (3.0 ± 1.3 nmol/ml). In addition, the plasma nitrite+nitrate and MDA levels in the eclamptic group were higher than in the IUGR group (p < 0.05). These variations could play different roles in the pathogenesis of eclampsia and IUGR pregnancy.

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
We have modified a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) procedure for homocysteine assay using 7-fluoro-2, 1, 3-benzoxadiazole-4-sulfonamide (ABD-F) pre-column derivatization. In this study, the thiol compounds were liberated from plasma proteins by reduction with 2-mercaptoethanol (BME) and derivatized with a thiol-specific fluoregenic marker, ABD-F. The derivatives were separated by reversed-phase HPLC on a Hypersil C 18 column (4.6 x 150 mm; 5 µ) using isocratic elution with 0.1 M phosphate buffer pH 6.0 containing 8% methanol and fluorescence detection. Excitation and emission wavelengths were 386 and 516 nm. The peak of homocysteine was eluted at 413 ± 25 s. Mean within-day …

Elevated plasma homocysteine concentration either in fasting state or after methionine loading is an independent risk factor for vascular disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between fasting total homocysteine (tHcy) and post-methionine load tHcy in healthy control subjects and in patients with angiographically defined coronary artery disease (CAD). Methionine loading has been used to investigate impaired methionine metabolism, especially of the trans-sulphuration pathway. We investigated the effect of methionine excess on total plasma homocysteine in 65 control subjects (44 men and 21 women) who attended a polyclinic of Gülhane Military Medical Academy (GMMA) in Ankara. …

Isolation And Identification Of Phenolic Acids In Malaysian Honey With Antibacterial Properties, Almahdi Melad Aljadi, Kamaruddin Mohd Yusoff
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
In this study the non-peroxide antibacterial factors in Malaysian honey were isolated and identified. The phenolic components were extracted from two different local floral honeys and their effects on the growth of selected pathogens were examined. A solid-phase extraction procedure was applied for the first time to recover honey phenolics. Identification was carried out via high performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography analysis. Antibacterial activity was determined via the disc-diffusion and broth dilution assays. The phenolic fractions of gelam and coconut honeys showed potent antibacterial activities. Both honeys contain gallic, caffeic, and benzoic acids. However, gelam honey contains additional phenolic …

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
The effects of fasting on humans have not been adequately investigated. Ramadan fasting is a great opportunity for scientific research due to its peculiar nature. With this in mind, we conducted research on the effects of Ramadan on stroke, which is one of the most common causes of death in adults. Patients hospitalized solely for ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage were evaluated retrospectively. The ratio of these cases to other patients hospitalized in the neurology department was determined. The in-hospital clinical course and mortality rates of the patients with stroke were evaluated. Within the entire cohort, the most frequently encountered …

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Nowadays, modern biopsy techniques such as fine and wide needles are used instead of invasive biopsy techniques for examining malign and benign lesions. This study examines whether wide needle biopsy (Tru-cut) possesses advantages as an alternative method to open biopsy. This study was performed on 40 patients with suspicious intra-jaw lesions. An 18-gauge, three-piece biopsy device was used. All the samples were sent to the tumor pathology unit at the oncology institute for histopathologic and cytopathologic examination. Thirty-seven of the 40 samples were adequate for diagnosis and three inadequate were. When we considered the results of Tru-cut and fine needle …

Our purpose was to investigate whether Helicobacter pylori (Hp) has a specific mucosal appearance. Eighty-eight (female / male: 53/35) patients included in the study underwent endoscopy to determine the macroscopic appearance of their gastric mucosa. Biopsies taken from the antrum, incisura angularis and corpus of each patient were stained with toluidine blue and examined for Hp under a light microscope. Thirty were Hp negative and 58 Hp positive. Thirty-six percent of the patients had normal mucosa, 21.59% had spotty erythema in the antrum, 31.81% had a mosaic pattern in the antrum and/or corpus and 10.23% had acute duodenal ulcer. Fifty-six …

Microalbuminuria is considered to be an early indicator of diabetic nephropathy. We have previously reported the establishment of A-HAlb/98 hybridoma secreting monoclonal antibody that specifically recognizes human serum albumin (HSA). In this report, an in-house enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed using this antibody for the measurement of urinary albumin (UA) and UA was examined in 24 different samples. A-HAlb/98 was used as the capture antibody by immobilizing onto microtitre plates in ELISA format. HSA-specific polyclonal rabbit immunoglobulin was labelled with biotin and then used as the tracer antibody. The dynamic assay range of ELISA for albumin was established to …
