Vitamin D plays important roles in the bone formation, in calcium and phosphorus homeostasis and in the treatment and prevention of many diseases. Ions, especially divalent cations like Mg2+, have indispensable roles in many vital biological events. Mg2+ is involved in many fundamental processes such as stabilization of membranes and macromolecules, synthesis of nucleic acid and proteins and formation and use of high-energy phosphate bonds. Mg2+ is also required for synthesis of more than 310 different enzymes of the body and is, therefore, involved in many important activities. The roles of vitamin D and major ions in the body are quite well known. While there are still many unresolved points about the exact molecular mechanism behind such diverse functions, in the present study, the interaction of Mg2+ with dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) model membranes has been studied in the presence and absence of vitamin D, by using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and turbidity technique at 440 nm. The effect of different buffer media on the system has also been investigated. The temperature dependent investigation of the wavelength of the CH, antisymmetric stretching bands revealed that, in the presence of N-[2-hydroxyethyl] piyerazine-N'-[2-ethanesulfonic acid] (Hepes) and phosphate buffer, addition of Mg2+ and/or vitamin D, into pure DPPC liposomes does not change the shape of the phase transition profile. Turbidity studies support these results. In the presence of Hepes buffer, the inclusion of Mg2+ and/or vitamin D, into pure DPPC liposomes orders the system. In the presence of phosphate buffer, FTIR study showed that, addition of Mg2+ into pure DPPC liposomes disorders the system in the gel phase. The precipitation of Mg2+ with phosphates, which is present in phosphate buffer, may be a reason for this difference in the effect. It is seen that, the binary mixture of Mg2+-DPPC and the ternary mixture of Mg2+-vitamin D-2-DPPC behave differently in the presence of two different buffer media.

Interaction between vitamin D-2 and magnesium in liposomes: Differential scanning calorimetry and FTIR spectroscopy studies
Toyran, Neslihan; Severcan, Feride (2007-08-27)
Magnesium (Mg (2+)) ion is of great importance in physiology by its intervention in 300 enzymatic systems, its role in membrane structure, its function in neuromuscular excitability and vitamin D metabolism and/or action. In the present study, the interaction of Mg2+, at low (1 mole %) and high (7 mole %) concentrations with dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) liposomes has been studied in the presence and absence of vitamin D-2 (I mole %) by using two noninvasive techniques, namely differential scanning...
Effect of quercetin on mRNA and protein expressions of vitamin D metabolizing CYP27B1 and CYP24A1 in human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK-293)
Durukan, Özlem; Akkulak, Merve; Özhan, Güneş; Evin, Emre; Adalı, Orhan (Wiley, 2018-07-01)
Vitamin D is essential compound for life having role not only in the regulation of calcium metabolism but also in the regulation of cell proliferation, immune responses, cardiovascular homeostasis and nervous system. These wide range of actions occur with the enzymatic conversion of vitamin D to 1a,25-dihydroxyvitamin D by cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs). While CYP27B1 provides the synthesis of hormonally active form of Vitamin D, 1,25(OH)2D, CYP24A1 involves in catabolism of vitamin D. Quercetin, as one of ...
A biomechanical and spectroscopic study of bone from rats with selenium deficiency and toxicity
Turan, B; Bayari, S; Balcik, C; Severcan, Feride; Akkas, N (2000-06-01)
Selenium, being an essential mineral in the mammalian diet, is important in providing protection against oxidative damage. Numerous in vitro studies of selenium compounds reveal a very high correlation between catalytic activity of selenium compounds and toxicity. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of dietary selenium on the biomechanical properties of bone. New born rats of both sexes were fed with either a control, or a selenium- and vitamin E-deficient, or a selenium-excess and vit...
The structural effects of Vitamin A deficiency on biological macromolecules due to ethanol consumption and withdrawal: An FTIR study with chemometrics
ELİBOL, BİRSEN; Severcan, Mete; Jakubowska-Dogru, Ewa; DURSUN, İLKNUR; Severcan, Feride (2022-04-01)
The structural effects of vitamin A-deficiency were examined on the molecular profiles of biomolecules of male rat hippocampus during prolonged ethanol intake/withdrawal using FT-IR spectroscopy coupled with chemometrics. Liquid ethanol diet with/without vitamin A was maintained to adult rats for 3-months. The rats were decapitated at different ethanol withdrawal times and FT-IR spectra were obtained. Ethanol consumption/withdrawal produced significant changes in proteins' conformations, while having insign...
The effect of hybrid vigor on callus induction and plant regeneration from mature embryo culture of barley (Hordeum vulgare)
Ozgen, M; Birsin, MA; Onde, S (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-07-01)
The influence of hybrid vigor on callus induction, callus weight, regeneration capacity of callus, culture efficiency and number of regenerated plants from mature embryo cultures of winter barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.) hybrid was studied. A total of 15 F-1 hybrids and their parents were used for mature embryo culture. The statistical analysis of the results revealed that positive heterosis was noticed for all these characters except for callus weight. Plants regenerated in vitro were successfully established...
