Publication Metadata only Spectrochemical and biochemical assay comparison study of the healing effect of the Aloe vera and Hypericum perforatum loaded nanofiber dressings on diabetic wound(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2021) ÖZBEYLİ, DİLEK; Guleken, Zozan; Depciuch, Joanna; Ege, Hasan; Ilbay, Gul; Kalkandelen, Cevriye; Ozbeyli, Dilek; Bulut, Huri; Sener, Goksel; Tarhan, Nevzat; Kuruca, Serap ErdemDiabetic wounds have a slow healing process and easy to be infected. In addition to current drug treatments, supportive approaches are needed for diabetic wound treatment. In this study, we aimed to load Aloe Vera (AV) and Hypericum perforatum oil (HPO) with PCL/Ge (Poly (e-caprolactone)/Gelatine) polymeric biodegradable by electrospinning method into nanofiber dressings on an experimental diabetic wound model to compare the diabetic wound healing effect. Changes in the amount and chemical structure of phospholipids, proteins, and lipids were investigated in the blood and serum samples of the animals using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis. To evaluate biological events associated with the wound repair process in inflammatory phase we used oxidant and antioxidant status to determine the healing status of wounds such as Total antioxidant status (TAS), Total oxidant level (TOS) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) levels. TOS level increased in DM groups and decreased in the AV and HPO group. Oxidative stress index decreased and TNF-alpha level increased in the HPO group. FTIR spectra showed changes in the phospholipids, proteins, and carbon chain of lipids in the whole blood as well as serum of DM rats. FTIR spectra combined with Principal component analysis (PCA) showed, that treated DM rats by AV and HPO caused return chemical structure of blood and serum to this observed in control group. Higher similarity with control group for HPO rats was observed. HPO is better than AV in the alternative for healing on diabetic wound. Thus, we have demonstrated that IR spectroscopy and mul-tivariate data analysis and biochemical assays are consistent and correlative with each other. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V.

N., Yenal N. Ö., Çilingir-Kaya Ö. T., Virlan A. T., Özbeyli D., Çetinel Ş., Yeğen B., Koç M.Background Nesfatin-1 (NES-1), an anorexigenic peptide, was reported to have anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic actions in several inflammation models. Methods To elucidate potential renoprotective effects of NES-1, unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) was induced in male Sprague Dawley rats by ligating left ureters. The rats were injected intraperitoneally with either saline (SL) or NES-1 (10 mu g/kg/day) for 7 or 14 days (n = 8 in each group). On the 7th or 14th day, obstructed kidneys were removed for the isolation of leucocytes for flow-cytometric analysis and the assessments of biochemical and histopathological changes. Results Opposite to glutathione levels, renal myeloperoxidase activity in the SL-treated UUO group was significantly increased compared with the sham-operated group, while NES-1 treatment abolished the elevation. The percentages of CD8+/CD4+ T-lymphocytes infiltrating the obstructed kidneys were increased in the SL-treated groups but treatment with NES-1 did not prevent lymphocyte infiltration. Elevated tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) levels in SL-treated UUO group were decreased with NES-1. Although total degeneration scores were similarly increased in all UUO groups, tubular dilatation scores were significantly increased in UUO groups and lowered by NES-1 only in the 7-day treated group. Elevated interstitial fibrosis scores in the SL-treated groups were decreased in both 7- and 14-day NES-1 treated groups, while alpha-smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA) and apoptosis scores were depressed in both NES-1 treated groups. Conclusion The present data demonstrate that UUO-induced renal fibrosis is ameliorated by NES-1, which appears to involve the inhibition of neutrophil infiltration and thereby amelioration of oxidative stress and inflammation. These data suggest that NES-1 may have a regulatory role in protecting the kidneys against obstruction-induced renal injury.Publication Metadata only PROTECTIVE EFFECTS OF VORTIOXETINE IN PREDATOR SCENT STRESS MODEL OF POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER IN RATS: ROLE ON NEUROPLASTICITY AND APOPTOSIS(POLISH PHYSIOLOGICAL SOC, 2019) YAVUZ, AYŞE NUR; Ozbeyli, D.; Aykac, A.; Alaca, N.; Hazar-Yavuz, A. N.; Ozkan, N.; Sener, G.Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can be observed after a traumatic event. The effect of an antidepressant vortioxetine (Vrx) against PTSD is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible protective effect of Vrx in the predator scent-induced PTSD rat model. The rats were exposed to dirty cat litter for 10 min and the protocol was repeated 1 week later with clean cat litter as a trauma reminder. The rats received Vrx (10 mg/kg/p.o.) or saline (1 ml/kg/p.o.) during 7 days between two exposure sessions. Novel object recognition test, hole board test, and elevated plus maze were performed. The b-cell lymphoma (bcl-2)/bcl-2-associated X protein (bax) ratio, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), caspase-3 and -9 expressions were detected using Western blotting in the amygdaloid complex, hippocampus, and frontal cortex. Our results indicate that increased freezing time and anxiety index in the stress-induced group is decreased with Vrx application. Vrx treatment improved deteriorated recognition memory in the stress-induced group. Decreased bcl-2/bax ratio and BDNF level and increased caspase-3 and -9 expressions in the stress group, improved with Vrx in the amygdala, and hippocampus. Decreased bcl-2/bax ratio and increased casp-3 and -9 expressions in the stress group are ameliorated with Vrx in frontal cortex. The level of BDNF was increased with Vrx in the frontal cortex. Increased damage scores in the amygdaloid complex, hippocampal CA3, and frontal cortex in the stress group ameliorated with Vrx treatment. Our results show that if vortioxetine is administered immediately after trauma, it reduces anxiety, cognitive and neuronal impairment and may be protective against the development of PTSD.Publication Metadata only The Effects of Different Exercise Modalities in Alzheimer's Disease(MARMARA UNIV, INST HEALTH SCIENCES, 2017) ÖZBEYLİ, DİLEK; Ozbeyli, Dilek; Cakir, Ozgur KasimayAlzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and the most common cause of dementia. Increased oxidative stress, abnormal amyloid beta (A beta) accumulation, tau aggregation, neuroinflammation, neuronal plasticity failure, and neuronal loss are the main factors related to the pathophysiology of AD. Increasing evidence suggests that physical activity has a positive effect on both cognitive function and cellular pathologies of AD. It has been demonstrated that aerobic exercise (AE) increases the activity of antioxidant enzymes and synthesis of neurotrophic factors, decreases the levels of neuroinflammatory markers, and enhances the functions of learning and memory. It is also beneficial for the improvement of cell survival and upregulation of A beta clearance. AE has been shown to reduce the levels of soluble A beta(1-42) via an increase in enzyme activity, which is responsible for the upregulation of A beta clearance in brain tissues. It also represses apoptotic cascades such as the caspase-9, cytochrome c, Bax, and caspase-3 cascades. Although there are no clear data on the effects of resistance exercise (RE) on AD, only a small number of articles have studied the effects of RE on models of aging. In these studies, RE increased the serum concentrations of insulin-like growth factor-1 and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), reduced oxidative stress in humans, and up-regulated the hippocampal expression of BDNF mRNA in animals. In addition, RE and AE therapies may help progress in daily activities and enhance physical ability in AD patients. Eventually, exercise therapy regimens may lead to more effective treatment options and slow the progression of AD without any side effects.Publication Metadata only Protective Effects of Momordica charantia (Bitter Melon) against Metho-trexate-induced Kidney Damage(2023-01-01) ÖZBEYLİ, DİLEK; MACİT Ç., ÖZBEYLİ D., Cevik O., Cetin M., Sener G., Özkan S.Background: Methotrexate is a cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agent that has severe side ef-fects, such as nephrotoxicity. Momordica charantia is a bright yellow-orange fruity plant that has been shown to have antioxidant, antidiabetic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Methods: 24 Sprague Dawley male rats were divided into three experimental groups (8 rats in each): Control (C); Methotrexate (MTX); and Methotrexate plus Momordica charantia (MTX+MC). All rats were fed ad libitum and tap water. Methotrexate was administered at 20 mg/kg intraperitoneally as a single dose. In the MTX+MC group, MC was administered at a dose of 50mg/kg for 5 days orally. At the end of the 5th day, the rats were decapitated and kidney samples were taken to analyze glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), myeloperoxidase (MPO), 8-hydroxy-2\"-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and caspase-3 activity. Data was analyzed with GraphPad Prism 5.0. Results: Findings showed that while there was a significant increase in MDA, MPO, 8-OHdG levels, and an essential reduction in GSH levels in the MTX-treated group when compared with the control group, bitter melon treatment significantly reversed MDA, MPO, and 8-OHdG levels (p< 0.001). GSH level elevation was observed in the MTX-MC group when compared to the MTX-treated group (p< 0.001). Conclusion: This study showed that bitter melon is thought to have a protective effect against kidney damage caused by methotrexate. With future studies, we believe that the use of bitter melon extract as a protective agent in kidney damage caused by drug-induced oxidative damage will bring an innova-tive approach to treatment.Publication Metadata only Effects of Ovariectomy and Estrogen Replacement Therapy on Laryngeal Tissue: A Histopathological Experimental Animal Study(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2011) ÖZBEYLİ, DİLEK; Tatlipinar, Arzu; Gunes, Pembegul; Ozbeyli, Dilek; Cimen, Burak; Gokceer, TanjuObjective. To determine the histopathological effect of estrogen deficiency and hormone replacement treatment on laryngeal tissue in ovariectomized rats. Study Design. Animal study. Setting. The study was conducted at the animal experiment laboratory of Marmara University School of Medicine, Istanbul, Turkey. Subjects and Methods. Six-month-old female Wistar albino rats were divided into the following 3 groups (n = 8 per group): sham-operated control, ovariectomized, and ovariectomized with estrogen replacement. Rats in the ovariectomized with estrogen replacement group received 17 beta-estradiol valerate (200 mu g/kg, subcutaneously) once a week. Animals were killed after 8 weeks of intervention. Results. Significant changes were observed in the ovariectomized group when edema in lamina propria, inflammation in squamous, respiratory epithelia and lamina propria, pseudostratification, and cilia loss were assessed. Except cilia loss, there were no significant differences in the assessments between the sham-operated control and ovariectomized with estrogen replacement groups. Conclusions. On the basis of histopathological evaluations, it was shown that estrogen replacement helped to improve laryngeal changes due to experimentally induced menopause.Publication Metadata only Protective effect of low dose caffeine on psychological stress and cognitive function(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2017) AKAKIN, DİLEK; Cakir, Ozgur Kasimay; Ellek, Nurfitnat; Salehin, Nabila; Hamamci, Rabia; Keles, Hulya; Kayali, Damla Gokceoglu; Akakin, Dilek; Yuksel, Meral; Ozbeyli, DilekIntroduction: Caffeine is an adrenergic antagonist that enhances neuronal activity. Psychological stress depresses cognitive function. Aim: To investigate the effects of acute and chronic low dose caffeine on anxiety-like behavior and cognitive functions of acute or chronic psychological stressed rats. Material-method: Acute or chronic caffeine (3 mg/kg) was administered to male Sprague Dawley rats (200-250 g, n = 42) before acute (cat odor) and chronic variable psychological stress (restraint overcrowding stress, elevated plus maze, cat odor, forced swimming) induction. Anxiety and cognitive functions were evaluated byhole-board and object recognition tests. The brain glutathione and malondialdehyde assays, myeloperoxidase, nitric oxide (NO), superoxide dismutase (SOD), luminol and lucigenin activity and histological examination were done. ANOVA and Student's t-test were used for statistical analysis. Results: The depressed cognitive function with chronic stress exposure and the increased anxiety-like behavior with both stress inductions were improved via both caffeine applications (p < 0.05-0.001). Both caffeine pretreatments in chronic stressed rats, and chronic caffeine in acute stressed ones reduced the elevated myeloperoxidase activities (p < 0.05-0.01). The increased malondialdehyde, lucigenin and NO levels with acute stress were inhibited with chronic caffeine (p < 0.05-0.01), malondialdehyde and NO levels were declined by acute caffeine (p < 0.001). Acute caffeine decreased SOD activity (p < 0.01) and improved glutathione (p < 0.01) and luminol levels (p < 0.05). The induced histological damage with both stress exposures was ameliorated with chronic caffeine. Conclusion: The increased anxiety-like behavior and depleted cognitive functions under stress conditions were improved with both acute and predominantly chronic caffeine pretreatments by decreasing oxidative damage parameters.

Materials and methods: The rats were randomly divided into four groups, with six rats in the control group and eight each in the remaining three groups. The buccal branch of the facial nerve in all groups except the control group was traumatized by a vascular clamp for 40 minutes. Group 1 was given lipoic acid (LA), Group 2 was given methylprednisolone (MP), and Group 3 was given lipoic acid and methylprednisolone (LA + MP) for one week. Nerve stimulus thresholds were measured before trauma, after trauma and at the end of the one week treatment period. Results: When the groups were compared with each other, post-treatment threshold levels of LA + MP were significantly lower than LA. Although post-treatment threshold levels of LA and MP were still higher than the control group, there was no significant difference between LA + MP and control values (p > .05). Conclusion: Lipoic acid has a positive effect on nerve healing and can enhance the effect of methylprednisolone treatment. It is a good alternative in cases where methylprednisolone cannot be used.Publication Metadata only Inhibitory effect of whey protein concentrate on SARS-CoV-2-targeted furin activity and spike protein-ACE2 binding in methotrexate-induced lung damage(2022) ÖZBEYLİ, DİLEK; Tufan, Elif; Sivas, Güzin Göksun; Gürel-Gökmen, Begüm; Yılmaz-Karaoğlu, Sümeyye; Ercan, Dursun; Özbeyli, Dilek; Şener, Göksel; Tunali-Akbay, TuğbaPublication Metadata only Anti-inflammatory effect of acute stress on experimental colitis is mediated by cholecystokinin-B receptors(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2004) YEGEN, BERRAK; Gulpinar, MA; Ozbeyli, D; Arbak, S; Yegen, BCWe aimed to investigate the effects of electric shock (ES) on the course of experimental colitis and the involvement of possible central and peripheral mechanisms. In Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 190) colitis was induced by intracolonic administration 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS). The effects of ES (0.3-0.5 mA) or the central administration of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF; astressin, 10 mug/kg) or cholecystokinin (CCKB; 20 mug/kg) receptor antagonists and peripheral glucocorticoid receptor (RU-486; 10 mg/kg) or ganglion (hexamethonium; 15 mg/kg) blockers on TNBS-induced colitis were studied by the assessment of macroscopic score, histological analysis and tissue myeloperoxidase activity. ES reduced all colonic damage scores (p < 0.05-0.01), while central CRF (p < 0.05-0.001) and CCKB receptor (p < 0.05-0.01) blockers or peripheral hexamethonium (p < 0.05-0.01) and RU-486 (p < 0,05) reversed stress-induced improvement. ES demonstrated an anti-inflammatory effect on colitis, which appears to be mediated by central CRF and CCK receptors with, the participation of hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis and the sympathetic nervous system.
