Öğe 8-Isoprostane and Coenzyme Q10 Levels in Patients with Metabolic Syndrome(MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC, 2016) Ercan, Humeyra; Kiyici, Aysel; Marakoglu, Kamile; Oncel, MufideBackground: Metabolic syndrome has become an important health problem, which involves obesity, hyper-lipidemia, insulin resistance, and high blood pressure values. The components of metabolic syndrome are all suggested as independent cardiovascular disease risk factors along with high mortality and morbidity rates accompanied by many organ and system complications. Objective: We aimed to determine 8-isoprostane (8-IsoP) and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) levels in patients with metabolic syndrome and healthy individuals and demonstrate whether there was any relation between these parameters and metabolic syndrome criteria. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 patients (10 male, 20 female) with metabolic syndrome and 20 age-matched healthy individuals (9 male, 11 female) were involved in the study. Body mass index, waist and hip circumferences, systolic and diastolic blood pressures and serum glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, insulin, HbA1c, 8-IsoP and CoQ10 levels, and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance indexes of all participants were determined. Results: 8-IsoP levels were significantly increased in metabolic syndrome compared to healthy individuals (P = 0.003), however, there was no significant difference between groups for CoQ10 levels. 8-IsoP levels were positively correlated with waist circumference (r = 0.303, P=0.032), diastolic blood pressure (r = 0.337, P = 0.017), systolic blood pressure (r = 0.329, P = 0.020) values and total cholesterol levels (r = 0.354, P=0.012). Conclusion: We can suggest that the levels of 8-IsoP, which is an indicator of the oxidative stress, increase in metabolic syndrome and this can be associated with high blood pressure and visceral adiposity, which are the components of metabolic syndrome.Öğe Cytokines, adipocytokines and inflammatory markers in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2016) Oncel, Mufide; Akbulut, Seval; Ozer, Turkan Toka; Kiyici, Aysel; Keles, Mustafa; Baltaci, Beyhan; Turk, SuleymanBackground: Cytokines are essential mediators of immune response. Chronic renal failure patients suffer from chronic inflammation that results from factors such as impaired renal function, accumulation of uremic toxins and bio incompatibility of dialyzer membranes. These patients are also at increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. We have evaluated cytokines, adipocytokines and inflammatory markers in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis (HD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).Material and methods: We have determined serum tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-), interleukin-6 (IL-6), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), leptin and ghrelin levels of chronic renal failure patients treated with either HD (n=20) or CAPD (n=20). TNF-, IL-6, ghrelin and leptin measurements were performed by commercially available kits based on enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. hsCRP levels were determined by turbidimetric methods.Results: Serum TNF- and IL-6 levels of patients on HD were significantly higher than those of the ones on CAPD (p<0.05). Ghrelin, leptin and hsCRP concentrations were similar in both groups.Conclusions: We can conclude that cytokine production is more obvious in HD process.Öğe Does obesity change the effect of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) on estradiol, leptin, insulin, and IGF-1 serum levels in breast cancer patients?(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2012) Artac, Mehmet; Askin, Dudu; Kiyici, Aysel; Eren, Onder Orhan; Oncel, Mufide; Boruban, Melih Cem; Bozcuk, Hakan Sat[Abstract not Available]
