Öğe In Vivo and In Vitro Antneoplastic Actions of Caffeic Acid Phenethyl Ester (CAPE): Therapeutic Perspectives(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2013) Akyol, Sumeyya; Ozturk, Gulfer; Ginis, Zeynep; Armutcu, Ferah; Yigitoglu, M. Ramazan; Akyol, OmerCancer prevention and treatment strategies have attracted increasing interest. Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), an active component of propolis extract, specifically inhibits NF-B at M concentrations and shows ability to stop 5-lipoxygenase-catalyzed oxygenation of linoleic acid and arachidonic acid. Previous studies have demonstrated that CAPE exhibits antioxidant, antiinflammatory, antiproliferative, cytostatic, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and, most improtantly, antineoplastic properties. The primary goal of the present review is to summarize and critically evaluate the current knowledge regarding the anticancer effect of CAPE in different cancer types.Öğe Interaction of Metabolic Syndrome with Asthma in Postmenopausal Women: Role of Adipokines(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2013) Aydin, Murat; Koca, Cemile; Ozol, Duygu; Uysal, Sema; Yildirim, Zeki; Kavakli, Havva Sahin; Yigitoglu, M. RamazanThe increasing prevalence of both asthma and obesity are major health problems. Recent studies established a possible link between obesity and asthma; however, the underlying mechanism is not clear. The aim of the study was to analyze the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal subjects with asthma and search the interactions between adipokines, metabolic syndrome, and asthma. A total of 45 female patients (57.5 +/- 13.9 years) with asthma and 30 healthy subjects (59.6 +/- 12.8 years) in postmenopausal status were enrolled in this study. For the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome, modified World Health Organization diagnostic criteria were used. Blood levels of glucose, lipid profile, HbA1c, insulin, CRP, leptin, adiponectin, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8 and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) were measured. The mean body mass index was 29.6 +/- 5.4 for asthma patients and 28.2 +/- 5.3 for the control group. The incidence of metabolic syndrome was found as 26 % for both groups. Insulin resistance as calculated by homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR) and fasting insulin levels were significantly higher in asthma patients (p < 0.001 for both parameters). Leptin levels were significantly higher (p = 0.001) and adiponectin levels were lower (p = 0.029) in asthma patients compared to controls. We concluded that although incidence of obesity and metabolic syndrome was not higher in postmenopausal asthma patients than controls, there was an impairment of glucose metabolism and altered adipokine levels in asthma patients.Öğe Is magnetic resonance imaging really innocent?(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2014) Erdamar, Husamettin; Gurgel, Ahmet; Namuslu, Mehmet; Celik, Huseyin Tugrul; Kazanci, Fatmanur Hacievliyagil; Ogretici, Aslihan Busra; Yigitoglu, M.
