Publication Metadata only Antitumor and antimetastatic effects of walnut oil in esophageal adenocarcinoma cells(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2018) ŞAHİN, ALİ; Batirel, Saime; Yilmaz, Ayse Mine; Sahin, Ali; Perakakis, Nikolaos; Ozer, Nesrin Kartal; Mantzoros, Christos S.Background: Walnuts contain many components including specific fatty acids, which could be active against cancer. Even though the anticarcinogenic effect of some of the individual fatty acids in walnut oil has been described, the effect of walnut oil itself on esophageal cancer cells hasn't yet been investigated. Objective: We aimed to investigate whether walnut oil affects tumor growth and metastatic potential in esophageal cancer cells. Methods: The human esophageal adenocarcinoma cell line, OE19, was treated with different doses of walnut oil and cell viability, apoptosis/necrosis and cell cycle analyses were performed using WST-1 assay and flow cytometry respectively. Adhesion, colony formation and wound healing assays were performed to assess the antimetastatic effects of walnut oil. NFkB expression was evaluated with western blot analysis. Results: Walnut oil decreased the cell viability of esophageal cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner. 20 mg/mL walnut oil reduced cell viability by similar to 50% when compared with control. The analysis revealed that necrosis and accumulation of cells in G0/G1 phase was induced in the cells treated with high doses of walnut oil. It also down-regulated the protein levels of NFkB. Walnut oil suppressed the adhesion, migration and colony formation of the cells. Conclusions: High-dose short-term administration of walnut oil reduces the cell viability and metastatic ability of esophageal cancer cells, while exhibiting anticarcinogenic effect by inducing necrosis and cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase, probably through suppression of the NFkB pathway. These data indicate that walnut oil, and by extension walnut consumption, may have beneficial effects in esophageal cancer in humans. This should be tested by clinical trials in the future.

Recent studies suggested tocotrienol to have better activity in many situations compared to tocopherols. Tocotrienols have been shown to lower the atherogenic apolipoprotein B and lipoprotein plasma levels. Additionally, tocotrienols with their anti-tumor effect together with anti-angiogenic and anti-thrombotic effects may serve as effective agents in cancer therapy. Besides these effects, some properties such as water insolubility and low stability limit the usage of tocotrienols in the clinic. However recent studies tried to increase the bioavailability with esterification and combination use. These efforts for the clinical usage of tocotrienols which may help them to take a wide place in the clinic and additional studies are needed to identify their therapeutical mechanisms.Publication Open Access Resveratrol: French paradox revisited(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2012) YILMAZ, BETÜL; Catalgol, Betul; Batirel, Saime; Taga, Yavuz; Ozer, Nesrin KartalResveratrol is a polyphenol that plays a potentially important role in many disorders and has been studied in different diseases. The research on this chemical started through the French paradox, which describes improved cardiovascular outcomes despite a high-fat diet in French people. Since then, resveratrol has been broadly studied and shown to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, and anti-angiogenic effects, with those on oxidative stress possibly being most important and underlying some of the others, but many signaling pathways are among the molecular targets of resveratrol. In concert they may be beneficial in many disorders, particularly in diseases where oxidative stress plays an important role. The main focus of this review will be the pathways affected by resveratrol. Based on these mechanistic considerations, the involvement of resveratrol especially in cardiovascular diseases, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and possibly in longevity will be is addressed.Publication Metadata only Resveratrol Inhibits Malign Pleural Mesothelioma Cell Proliferation Through Antioxidant System(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2015) KARTAL ÖZER, NESRİN; Batirel, Saime; Kurt, Elif; Toplayici, Selina; Corek, Ceyda; Altundag, Ergul Mutlu; Ozer, Nesrin KartalPublication Metadata only The effect of Irisin on antioxidant system in liver(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2014) KARTAL ÖZER, NESRİN; Batirel, Saime; Bozaykut, Perinur; Altundag, Ergul Mutlu; Ozer, Nesrin Kartal; Mantzoros, Christos S.
