    Chemical Compositions by Using LC-MS/MS and GC-MS and Biological Activities of Sedum sediforme (Jacq.) Pau
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2014) Ertas, Abdulselam; Boga, Mehmet; Yilmaz, Mustafa Abdullah; Yesil, Yeter; Hasimi, Nesrin; Kaya, Meryem Seyda; Temel, Hamdi
    In this research, the chemical composition and biological activities of various extracts obtained from whole parts of Sedum sediforme (Jacq.) Pau were compared. The amounts of total phenolic and flavonoid components in crude extracts were determined by expression as pyrocatechol and quercetin equivalents, respectively. All of the extracts (petroleum ether, acetone, methanol, and water) obtained from S. sediforme showed strong antioxidant activity in four tested methods. Particularly, the IC50 values of the methanol extract, which was the richest in terms of total phenolic and flavonoid contents, were found to be lower than those of alpha-tocopherol and BHT in beta-carotene bleaching (9.78 +/- 0.06 mu g/mL), DPPH free radical scavenging (9.07 +/- 0.07 mu g/mL), and ABTS cation radical scavenging (5.87 +/- 0.03 mu g/mL) methods. Furthermore, the methanol extract of S. sediforme showed higher inhibition activity than galanthamine against acetyl- and butyryl-cholinesterase enzymes. Also, acetone and methanol extracts exhibited moderate antimicrobial activity against Candida albicans. The main constituents of fatty acid and essential oil were identified as palmitic acid (C16:0) (28.8%) and alpha-selinene (20.4%), respectively, by GC-MS. In the methanol extract of S. sediforme, quercetin, rutin, naringenin, and protocatechuic, p-coumaric, caffeic, and chlorogenic acids were detected and quantified by LC-MS/MS. Results of the current study showed that the methanol extract of S. sediforme may also be used as a food supplement.

    Involvement of necroptosıs and apoptosıs ın protectıve effects of cyclosporın a on ischemıa-reperfusıon injury in rat kıdney
    (Springer, 2025) Ozgen, Zeynep Erdogmus; Erdinc, Meral; Kaya, Meryem Seyda; Aktar, Fesih; Ozekinci, Selver Ozsener; Erdinc, Levent; Uyar, Emre
    We aimed to investigate the protective effects of low dose cyclosporin A (CsA) on ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in rat the kidney and on the apoptotic and necroptotic mechanisms involved. 1. Control group (received a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) dose of 1 ml sterile saline 15 min before the surgical procedure), 2. IR group (was subjected to 30 min of bilateral kidney ischemia followed by 90 min of reperfusion; and received a single i.p. dose of 1 ml sterile saline 15 min before the IR procedure, 3. IR + CsA group (received a single i.p. dose of 3 mg/kg CsA 15 min before the IR procedure. Renal functions (renal perfusion pressures, and serum urea-creatinine levels), kidney histological scores, MDA levels, and TNF-alpha, caspase-3, RIP1, RIP3, MLKL, CaMKII and CypD protein expressions were also measured. Renal perfusion pressures (PP), serum urea and creatinine levels, renal tissue MDA levels, and the protein expression levels of TNF-alpha, caspase-3, RIP1, RIP3, MLKL, CAMKII and CypD were significantly increased in the IR group compared to the control group (p < 0.05), Additionally, there were significant decreases in all the parameters in the IR + CsA group compared to those in the IR group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, histopathological analyses revealed significantly higher kidney injury scores in the IR group compared to the control group, and low dose CsA treatment improved the injury. A single low dose of CsA injection 15 min before IR, demonstrated a protective effect on bilateral renal IR injury and a reduction in apoptotic and necroptopic markers which is resulted in improvement of renal functions.
