Desloratadine (DES) and Trimebutin (TMB) are anti-inflammatory agents used in the treatment of various diseases. This study aimed to investigate the antitumor effects of DES and TMB, which exhibit anti-inflammatory effects, on different human cancer cell lines. Materials and Methods: In this study, human prostate (LNCaP), ovarian (A2780), breast (MCF-7) and colon cancer (Caco-2) cell lines were treated with DES and TMB at concentrations of 1, 5, 25, 50 and 100 µM. Cells were treated with the compounds for 6, 12, and 24 hours, and the change in cell viability was determined using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The inhibitory concentration 50 (LogIC50) values of the compounds were calculated using GraphPad Prism 8 software based on cell viability results. The genotoxic effects of the compounds on cells were determined using the comet assay. Group comparisons were performed using the Kruskal-Wallis H test and p<0.05 was considered significant. Results: Exposure of LNCaP, A2780, MCF-7, and Caco-2 cells to DES and TMB agents for 6, 12 and 24 hours significantly reduced cell viability (p≤0.05). According to the comet assay results, DES and TMB caused significant DNA damage in the cell lines (p≤0.05). Conclusion: The study results demonstrate that DES and TMB, which have anti-inflammatory effects, exert cytotoxic effects by inducing DNA damage in cancer cells.","PeriodicalId":8248,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Medical Research","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90918909","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}

Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors of mortality and to evaluate the differences between blood and biliary drainage culture positive patients after PTBD. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study of 90 patients without any signs of infection prior to the PTBD procedures. Of these patients, we further divided them into three groups based on culture results: 1) first group was only bacteremic, 2) second group was only bile drainage culture-positive, and 3) third group was both bacteremic and bile drainage culture-positive. We compared clinical and laboratory parameters between these three groups and also evaluated the culture results in a high-resistance setting. Results: There were 90 patients who developed bacteremia, bile duct infections or both. In the laboratory findings, bacteremic patients showed significantly higher serum level of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (p=0.001). Elevated neutrophil counts, lipase levels and carbapenem-resistant isolates were found to be the independent risk factors for 30-day mortality after PTBD. (p=0.01, p=0.01, and p=0.04, respectively). Gram-negative organisms were present in 71.2% of the cases; Escherichia coli was the most common species (28.1%) followed by Enterococcus faecium (18.1%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (15.8%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (9.9%). 51 (41.8%) of the cultured gram-negative bacteria were extended spectrum beta-lactamases positive and carbapenem resistance was found in 27 (15.8%) isolates. Conclusion: Elevated ALT level was only difference between three groups. Therefore, bacteremic and bile culture positive patients should be treated with the same care. Elevated neutrophil counts, lipase levels and carbapenem-resistant isolates were the independent risk factors for mortality. Finally, the choice of antibiotic prophylaxis should be reviewed according to the antimicrobial resistance profiles.","PeriodicalId":8248,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Medical Research","volume":"79 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79064724","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}

Materials and Methods: The antiproliferative activity of RJ, AVE, and the combination of AVE and RJ was performed in vitro on A549 and HT29 cells using a Real-Time Cell Analyzer (xCELLigence). To determine the mechanisms underlying the antiproliferative activity, cell apoptosis was performed by flow cytometry using the annexin V-FITC/PI apoptosis detection kit, while cell migration was determined by wound healing assay. Results: Treatment with varying concentrations of AVE, RJ, and the combination of AVE and RJ was concluded to have dose-dependent antiproliferative activity and that the AVE-RJ combination induced 41% of HT29 and 11.79% of A549 early apoptosis (p<0.05). However, the inhibition effect of the combination of AVE and RJ on cancer cell migration was not detected. Conclusion: Taken together, our results showed that the AVE-RJ combination could be a promising therapeutic combination in A549 and HT29 by inducing apoptosis. The obtained results revealed that the AVE (40 µg/mL) and RJ (300 mg/mL) combination in the A549 cell line exhibited earlier antiproliferative activity than the 40 µg/mL AVE. Also, it has been found that the antiproliferative activity of AVE is enhanced when used in combination with RJ.

Those whose postoperative histopathological results proved the presence of PTCA were involved in this study. Healthy volunteers who were without any thyroid nodules and thyroid dysfunction.

Disulfide, disulfide/native thiol × 100, and disulfide/total thiol × 100 values were detected to be lower in the patient group with PTCA, but not statistically significant. When the patients with PTCA were assessed within themselves, TDH parameters were not associated with the PTCA subtype, the number of foci, the presence of lymphovascular invasion, and the presence of metastatic lap.

Many endogenous mechanisms operate in hypoxia. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) is a transcriptional protein involved in the head of the cascade that regulates the response of brain and other tissues to hypoxia. HIF-1 alpha (HIF-1α) is the main molecule that responds to hypoxia and is an important marker of cerebral hypoperfusion. Materials and Methods: 39 acute stroke patients aged between 18-80 years and 38 control patients included in our study. We aimed to examine the serum HIF-1α levels in early period of acute ischemic stroke. We also aimed to evaluate its usefulness in determining tissue damage due to hypoxia and the prognosis of the disease. Results: Serum HIF-1α levels were higher in acute ischemic stroke patients compared to the control group (p= 0.000). There was no significant correlation between infarct volumes, NHISS scores, blood pressure and HIF-1α values of the stroke patients. Conclusion: HIF-1α could be an important biomarker in detecting cerebral hypoxia. It is possible to study this in human peripheral blood. Its usability in stroke may become widespread with studies on its therapeutic target.","PeriodicalId":8248,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Medical Research","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134981039","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}
