Apoptotic and anastatic cell percentages were determined by the Annexin V test and flow cytometry. Gene expression changes in anastatic cells compared to apoptotic cells were determined by the qRT-PCR and 2-ΔΔCt method. The pathways and biological processes of genes that show significant changes were determined using the STRING v11.5 database. \u0000Results: In all cell groups, it was determined that the percentage of apoptosis increased as a result of ethanol application, and the percentage of apoptotic cells decreased with the removal of the apoptosis-inducing factor. The change in the percentage of apoptotic cells between the control, apoptosis, and anastasis groups was determined the most in MCF7 cells. Consistently, expression changes were determined in the largest number of genes in this cell line. CASP7 and APAF1 genes downregulated in all cell lines. In all cell groups, it was determined that anastasis affects Cysteine-type endopeptidase activity involved in execution phase of apoptosis (GO_ID: 0043027), and drug resistance-related pathways (KEGG_ID: hsa01524). \u0000Conclusion: The definition of the interaction of the anastasis phenomenon in cells with apoptosis regulatory mechanisms is important in terms of elucidating both the oncogenic transformation of healthy cells and the mechanisms of drug resistance in cancer.","PeriodicalId":32499,"journal":{"name":"Ege Tip Dergisi","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67800772","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}

All data of the patients were collected by file searching method and demographic features of the patients were recorded. \u0000Written informed consent was obtained from all patients prior to study. Trauma types and gender ratios of the patients were calculated as percentages.. Contrast-enhanced thoraco-abdominal computed tomography was performed for definitive diagnosis, and endovascular treatment was evaluated. All patients deemed suitable for endovascular treatment were intervened within the first 24 hours. \u0000Results: The most majority of our patient group was in stage 4 and the most common etiology was recorded as in - vehicle traffic accidents. Of the 17 patients included in the study, 2 died in the early period and 1 died in the follow-up period. Complications such as graft migration, pseudo aneurysm and graft kinking, which are known as complications of endovascular treatment, were not encountered. Although the left subclavian artery was closed in 12 of 17 patients, only two of them required carotid-subclavian bypass. \u0000Conclusion: The fact that endovascular treatment can be applied with low mortality compared to conventional surgery reduces mortality in acute aortic transections. The most important factors affecting the success of the treatment are that the intervention is performed in the 24 hours, in experienced centers, and that 10% of the aortic diameter is not exceeded in the graft selection, and balloon dilatation is avoided.","PeriodicalId":32499,"journal":{"name":"Ege Tip Dergisi","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67799762","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}
