Öğe The Adiponectin variants contribute to the genetic background of type 2 diabetes in Turkish population(ELSEVIER, 2014) Arikoglu, Hilal; Ozdemir, Hulya; Kaya, Dudu Erkoc; Ipekci, Suleyman Hilmi; Arslan, Ahmet; Kayis, Seyit Ali; Gonen, Mustafa SaitAdiponectin, an adipose tissue specific protein encoded by the Adiponectin gene, modulates insulin sensitivity and plays an important role in regulating energy homeostasis. Many studies have shown that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the Adiponectin gene are associated with low plasma Adiponectin levels, insulin resistance and an increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the contribution of the Adiponectin gene polymorphisms in genetic background of type 2 diabetes in a Turkish population. In total, 169 unrelated and non-obese diabetic patients and 119 age- and BMI-matched nondiabetic individuals with no family history of diabetes were enrolled in this study. We detected a significant association between type 2 diabetes and two SNPs: SNP - 11391G>A. which is located in the promoter region of the Adiponectin gene, and SNP + 276G > T, which is found in intron 2 of the gene (P < 0.05). The silence SNP G15G ( + 45T > G) in exon 1 and SNP + 349A > G in intron 2 also showed a weak association with type 2 diabetes (P = 0.06 and P = 0.07, respectively), while SNPs - 3971A>G in intron 1 and Y111H, R112C and H241P in exon 3 showed no association (P > 0.05). In conclusion, these findings suggest that Adiponectin gene polymorphisms might be effective on susceptibility for type 2 diabetes development which emerged from the interactions between multiple genes, variants and environmental factors.

This factor is a critical part of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway that plays key roles in regulation of embryonic development and homeostasis in mature tissues. It is known that the constant activation of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway can cause cancer development. In this study, it is aimed to reveal the association between rs7903146C>T and rs12255372G/T single nucleotide polymorphisms in TCF7L2 gene, the key effector of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway, and gastric cancer and to determine associated risk alleles. Material and Method: In our study, polymorphisms in TCF7L2 gene were genotyped using PCR-PFLP technique in 38 patients with gastric cancer and 48 healthy individuals. The obtained data were statistically analyzed and p<0.06 was accepted significant in all assessments. Results: No significant association was determined between rs7903146C>T and disease (p> 0.05) while 122553720>T polymorphism was associated with the disease under additive model (OR: 0.366 195% Cl: 0.135-0.989] p=0.047). Discussion: This is the first study to examine the association between TCF7L2 gene and gastric cancer risk in Turkish population and suggests that rs12255372C>T could be a potential indicator for gastric cancer. On the other hand, further studies are required which will be carry out in more increased number of samples in a wider population.Öğe ASSOCIATION OF SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE POLYMORPHISMS (SNPS)+276 AND+349 IN THE ADIPONECTIN GENE WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS IN TURKISH POPULATION(JOHN WILEY & SONS INC, 2009) Arikoglu, Hilal; Kaya, Dudu Erkoc; Ozdemir, Hulya; Gotten, Mustafa Sait; Ipckci, Suleyman; Arslan, Ahmet; Hepdogru, Melda Aksoy[Abstract not Available]Öğe Effects of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in K-ATP Channel Genes on Type 2 Diabetes in a Turkish Population(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2012) Gonen, Mustafa Sait; Arikoglu, Hilal; Kaya, Dudu Erkoc; Ozdemir, Hulya; Ipekci, Suleyman Hilmi; Arslan, Ahmet; Kayis, Seyit AliBackground and Aims. ATP-sensitive potassium (K-ATP) channels of pancreatic beta-cells play a key role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion mechanism. The Kir6.2 protein, forming the K-ATP channel pore inwardly, and the SUR1 protein that surrounds it forming the outside part of the channel were encoded by ABCC8 and KCNJ11 genes, respectively. Recent studies reported that the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) established in these genes are associated with defects in insulin secretion and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We aimed to investigate the allele profiles and the risk alleles of the ABCC8 and KCNJ11 genes and to highlight the associations with the disease in patients in Konya region of Turkey where T2DM is common. Methods. In this study, 169 patients with T2DM and 119 healthy controls were included. A total of 29 SNPs in ABCC8 and KCNJ11 genes were screened by PCR-SSCP technique and sequenced. Biochemical parameters and genotype-phenotype relationships were analyzed using variance analysis. Results. R1273R silent substitution in exon 31 and 16/-3t -> c substitution in noncoding region of exon 16 of ABCC8 gene showed a significant association (OR 4.8 [95% CI 2.41-9.77], p < 0.001 and OR 3.5 [95% CI 1.64-7.40], p < 0.001 under dominant and recessive models, respectively). We detected a significant association between E/K heterozygote genotype and reduced plasma insulin level in patients with T2DM (p < 0.05). Conclusions. ABCC8 exons 16 and 31 variants increase susceptibility to T2DM and KCNJ11 E23K decreases insulin secretion in a Turkish population (C) 2012 MISS.

However, little is known about its effects on invasion and metastasis. In this study, we aimed to determine the antimetastatic effect of juglone in the BxPC-3 and PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cell lines. Cytotoxic effect of juglone was evaluated by using MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazo1-2-yl)-2,5-Diphenyltetrazolium Bromide) test. The cells were treated with juglone atÖğe Investigation of Juglone's effects on invasion and metastasis in BxPC-3 pancreatic cancer cells(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2015) Avci, Ebru; Arikoglu, Hilal; Kaya, Dudu Erkoc[Abstract not Available]
