Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a dominant factor standing for kidney impairments during diabetes. In this study, attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy was used to disclose the diabetes-induced structural changes in the kidney and evaluate the effects of selenium on diabetes. The increase in the area of the olefinic band indicated increased amount of lipid peroxidation end products in diabetic kidney brush border cell membrane. Moreover, saturated lipid content of this cell membrane considerably diminished. DKD was found to disrupt lipid order and cause a decrease in membrane dynamics. However, the administration of selenium at low and medium doses was shown to improve these conditions by changing the lipid contents toward control values, restoring the ordered structure of the lipids and membrane dynamics. Curve-fitting and artificial neural network (ANN) analyses of secondary structures of proteins demonstrated a relative increase in α-helix and reduction in the β-sheet during diabetes in comparison to the control group, which were ameliorated following selenium treatment at low and medium doses. These findings were further confirmed by applying hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) and principal component analysis (PCA). A clear separation of the experimental groups was obtained with high heterogeneity in the lipid and protein regions. These chemometric analyses showed that the low and medium doses of selenium-treated diabetic groups are successfully segregated from the diabetic group and clustered closer to the control. The study suggests that medium and, more predominantly, low-dose selenium treatment can be efficient in eliminating diabetes-induced structural alterations.

Gene expressions of Mn-SOD and GPx-1 in streptozotocin-induced diabetes: effect of antioxidants Sadi, Goekhan; Güray, Nülüfer Tülün (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2009-07-01) Increased oxidative stress and impaired antioxidant defense mechanisms are believed to be the important factors contributing to the pathogenesis and progression of diabetes mellitus. In this study, we have reported the effects of the streptozotocin-induced diabetes on the gene expression and the activities of two antioxidant enzymes, manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx). We also studied the effects of two antioxidants, vitamin C and DL-alpha-lipoic acid (LA), on the system...
The effects of selenium on stz-induced diabetic rat kidney plasma membrane Gurbanov, Rafig; Severcan, Feride; Department of Biochemistry (2010) The kidney is one of the most affected organs of body from diabetes. Diabetic kidney disease is a complication of diabetes seen in 30-40% of diabetic person. The aim of this work is to contribute the useful information in the therapy of diabetes. It is very important to know the role of antioxidants at the molecular level during diabetes. The protecting role of antioxidants against lipid peroxidation, the effect of cellular antioxidant enzyme systems, understanding the changes of membrane fluidity, lipid or...
CASIN and AMD3100 enhance endothelial cell proliferation, tube formation and sprouting. Kalkan, Batuhan Mert; Akgol, Sezer; Ak, Deniz; Yucel, Dogacan; Esken, Gulen Guney; KOCABAŞ, FATİH (Elsevier BV, 2020-07-01) Endothelial dysfunction is prominent in atherosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes, peripheral and cardiovascular diseases, and stroke. Novel therapeutic approaches to these conditions often involve development of tissue-engineered veins with ex vivo expanded endothelial cells. However, high cell number requirements limit these approaches to become applicable to clinical applications and highlight the requirement of technologies that accelerate expansion of vascular-forming cells. We have previously shown that...
Selenium alters the lipid content and protein profile of rat heart: An FTIR micro spectroscopic study Toyran, Neslihan; Turan, Belma; Severcan, Feride (Elsevier BV, 2007-02-15) Cardiovascular disease is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality in Western countries. In addition, it is well documented that selenium (Se) deficiency has been linked to cardiovascular diseases. This study was undertaken to present the effect of sodium selenite on left and right myocardia, and small veins of normal control rat heart at molecular level by using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopy. The results mainly reveal that, Se treatment causes an increase in lipid c...
MATERNAL OBESITY EFFECT ON OFFSPRING PANCREATIC ENDOCRINE CELLS: INVESTIGATION OF THE CELL TRANSDIFFERENTIATION PROFILE THAT CAUSES DIABETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY FEYAT, MEHMET SEDAT; Yanık, Tülin; Özçubukçu, Salih; Department of Biotechnology (2022-6-13) In general, Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) is a disease characterized by impaired functioning of pancreatic beta cells and progressive insulin hormone deficiency progressively in combination with physiologically ongoing insulin resistance. In the later stages of the disease, beta cell dysfunction is defined as beta cell death and a decrease in functional cell count. It is a common clinical finding in patients with T2D that therapeutic drugs lowering insulin resistance and diet in the course of the disease treatment ...
