It is thought that tyrosine kinase inhibitors may have a wide range of therapeutic efficacy. Significant response rates could not be obtained in phase 1 studies with any of the agents in monotherapy, and other options are being investigated by administering high doses in short periods and combining drugs that may affect different pathways.","PeriodicalId":272457,"journal":{"name":"Arşiv Kaynak Tarama Dergisi","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132515184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the PRISMA declaration, 4 databases were used, namely PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCOHost and Google Scholar, and a systematic search was conducted to identify randomized controlled studies on all rats and mice published between January 1, 2000-December 31, 2020. Studies using advantam, acesulfame-K, aspartame, neotame, saccharine, cyclamate, and sucralose as artificial sweeteners are included. As a result of first screening, a total of 901 studies on mice and rats were obtained. Eleven randomized controlled trials that met the study objective and inclusion criteria were included in systematic review. Two of studies were carried out on rats and nine of them were performed on mice. No study with advantam and cyclamate meeting the inclusion criteria was found in literature. Due to small sample size, meta-analysis could not be performed. Although artificial sweeteners have an effect on intestinal microbiota in mice and rats, no clear evidence for its effect has been demonstrated. It is important to investigate how changes in gut microbiome affect human health, and therefore it is essential to increase number of randomized controlled clinical trials evaluating effect of artificial sweetener consumption on the microbiota.","PeriodicalId":272457,"journal":{"name":"Arşiv Kaynak Tarama Dergisi","volume":"101 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127124039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Enzymes responsible for their synthesis in the body are expressed in various tissues. H2S has many physiological effects such as anti-inflammatory, antiapoptotic, neuroprotective, gastroprotective, antispasmodic, cytoprotective antioxidant, a bronchodilator, blood pressure regulation. Also, it is known that H2S has a role in various pathological conditions such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, depression, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), ulcer, erectile dysfunction, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's disease. Considering its potential importance in physiopathological conditions, various drugs have been developed in combination with H2S-releasing aspirin and naproxen. In this context, some drugs with anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antioxidant, cytoprotective, and cardioprotective effects have been developed. ATB-346, GIC-1001, NBS-1120, SG-1002, AP-39, and MZe76 are among the candidate drugs. Phase studies of S-zofenopril have been completed.

Mutations can occur in germ cells (germline) (GLM) as well as others (somatic) (SM). GLM are responsible for 5-10% of cancers. Early detection of GLMs is critical for identifying at-risk individuals, following up, and designing risk-reducing procedures. Furthermore, the detection of SM in tumor tissue has recently been used to determine the necessity for extra adjuvant and targeted therapy. Although familial clustering is observed in 10-30% of ovarian (OC) and breast (BC) cancer cases. GLM in the BRCA1/2, which cause DNA repair deficiencies, are responsible for 65-85% of genetic anomalies in hereditary OC. Risk-reducing mastectomy (RRM) reduces the risk of BC by about % 90-95 in cases with pathogenic mutations (PMs) in the BRCA1/2 genes, while risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) reduces the incidence of BC (%50 ) and OC(%70-96 ), as well as a decrease in overall cancer-specific mortality. Except for BRCA1/2, OC is caused by PMs in genes like RAD51C, RAD51D and BRIP1, which affect DNA repair process. RRSO is indicated among carriers of PMs in these genes. Lynch syndrome (LS) is associated with a higher risk of colorectal and endometrial cancer. After completing their fertility, hysterectomy and bilateral RRSO are recommended for carriers of PMs in the MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 genes. Based on the most recent guidelines, our goal in this review is to highlight the genetic alterations that necessitate risk-reducing prophylactic surgical procedures, which are becoming more common in our gynecological oncology practice.
