Label-free quantitation, an extension to 2DB
(Springer, 2010-04)
Determining the differential expression of proteins under different conditions is of major importance in proteomics. Since mass spectrometry-based proteomics is often used to quantify proteins, several labelling strategies ...
Nilotinib significantly induces apoptosis in imatinib resistant K562 cells with wild-type BCR-ABL, as effectively as in parental sensitive counterparts
(Taylor & Francis, 2010-02)
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a hematological malignancy characterized by high levels of immature white blood cells. CML is caused by the translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22 (which results in the formation of ...
Salt tolerance in Solanum pennellii: Antioxidant response and related QTL
(BioMed Central, 2010-04)
Background: Excessive soil salinity is an important problem for agriculture, however, salt tolerance is a complex trait that is not easily bred into plants. Exposure of cultivated tomato to salt stress has been reported ...
Preliminary phylogeny of the thrips parasitoids of Turkey based on some morphological scales and 28S D2 rDNA, with description of a new species
(TÜBİTAK, 2010)
Species of the Ceranisus thrips-attacking genus are difficult to distinguish morphologically. The phylogenetic relationships within the Ceranisus species were explored using nucleotide sequences of the 28S D2 expansion ...
Combination of fludarabine and imatinib induces apoptosis synergistically through loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and increases in caspase-3 enzyme activity in human K562 chronic myleloid leukemia cells
(Informa Healthcare, 2010-06)
In this study, we aimed to show the synergistic apoptotic effects of imatinib/fludarabine combination in human K562 chronic myleloid leukemia (CML) cells. There was a significant increase in cytotoxicity of combination of ...
Compartmentalization and regulation of mitochondrial function by methionine sulfoxide reductases in yeast
(American Chemical Society, 2010-10)
Elevated levels of reactive oxygen species can damage proteins. Sulfur-containing amino acid residues, cysteine and methionine, are particularly susceptible to such damage. Various enzymes evolved to protect proteins or ...
Protective effect of seleno-L-methionine on cyclophosphamide-induced urinary bladder toxicity in rats
(Humana Press, 2010-04)
Cyclophosphamide (CP) is a widely used antineoplastic drug, which could cause toxicity of the normal cells due to its toxic metabolites. Its urotoxicity may cause dose-limiting side effects like hemorrhagic cystitis. ...
Seleno L-methionine acts on cyclophosphamide-induced kidney toxicity
(Humana Press, 2010-08)
The anticancer drug cyclophosphamide (CP) has nephrotoxic effects besides its urotoxicity, which both in turn limit its clinical utility. The nephrotoxicity of CP is less common compared to its urotoxicity, and not much ...
The roles of thiol oxidoreductases in yeast replicative aging
(Elsevier, 2010-11)
Thiol-based redox reactions are involved in the regulation of a variety of biological functions, such as protection against oxidative stress, signal transduction and protein folding. Some proteins involved in redox regulation ...
Antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of turkish extra virgin olive oils
(American Chemical Society, 2010-07)
Turkish extra virgin olive oils (EVOO) from different varieties/ geographical origins and their phenolic compounds were investigated in terms of their antimicrobial and antioxidant properties in comparison to refined olive, ...
