Low dose simvastatin induces compositional, structural and dynamic changes in rat skeletal extensor digitorum longus muscle tissue Ozek Simsek, Nihal; Sara, Yildirim; Onur, Rustu; Severcan, Feride (Portland Press Ltd., 2009-10-6) <jats:p>Statins are commonly used drugs in the treatment of hypercholesterolaemia. There are many adverse effects of statins on skeletal muscle, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In the present study, the effects of low dose (20 mg/kg) simvastatin, a lipophilic statin, on rat EDL muscle (extensor digitorum longus muscle) were investigated at the molecular level using FTIR (Fourier-transform infrared) spectroscopy. FTIR spectroscopy allows us rapid and sensitive determination of functional groups...
Low dose dimethyl sulfoxide driven gross molecular changes have the potential to interfere with various cellular processes Tuncer, Sinem; Gurbanov, Rafig; Sheraj, Ilir; Solel, Ege; Esentürk, Okan; Banerjee, Sreeparna (2018-10-04) Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a small molecule with polar, aprotic and amphiphilic properties. It serves as a solvent for many polar and nonpolar molecules and continues to be one of the most used solvents (vehicle) in medical applications and scientific research. To better understand the cellular effects of DMSO within the concentration range commonly used as a vehicle (0.1-1.5%, v/v) for cellular treatments, we applied Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to DM...
Chronic intracerebroventricular NGF administration improves working memory in young adult memory deficient rats Jakubowska-Dogru, E; Gumusbas, U (Elsevier BV, 2005-07-01) Although the beneficial effects of nerve growth factor (NGF) in age-related memory deficits are well documented, the therapeutic role of this neurotrophin in memory deficits occurring in young Subjects remains unclear. In the present study, the effect of chronic NGF administration on spatial working memory was investigated in young adult memory deficient Wistar rats. Memory deficient rats were selected on the basis of their preoperative performance in delayed matching-to-position task (DMTP) carried out in ...
High hydrostatic pressure effects on mold flora, citrinin mycotoxin, hydroxytyrosol, oleuropein phenolics and antioxidant activity of black table olives Tokusoglu, Oezlem; Alpas, Hami; BOZOGLU, Faruk (2010-04-01) High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) as a non-thermal technology is an effective tool for microbiologically safe and shelf-stable fruits Mycotoxin citrinin (CIT) is a toxic secondary metabolite, especially produced from filamentous fungus Penicillium citrinum and is also produced by other species of Penicillium. Aspergillus, and Monascus that are able to develop on olive after harvest, during brine and storage of olives Nutritional benefits of olive fruit are mainly related to phenolics such as hydroxytyrosol, o...
High hydrostatic pressure induced inactivation kinetics of e. coli o157:h7 and s. aureus in carrot juice and analysis of cell volume change Pilavtepe, Mutlu; Alpas, Hami; Department of Food Engineering (2007) The main objective of this study was to determine the pressure induced inactivation mechanism of pressure-resistant Escherichia coli O157:H7 933 and Staphylococcus aureus 485 in a low acid food. Firstly, inactivation curves of pathogens were obtained at 200 to 400 MPa at 40ºC in peptone water and carrot juice. First-order and Weibull models were fitted and Weibull model described the inactivation curves of both pathogens more accurately than first-order model, revealing that food systems could exhibit eithe...
