    Effect of gestational diabetes mellitus on testis and pancreatic tissues of male offspring
    (Wiley, 2018) Turk, G.; Risvanli, A.; Ceribasi, A. O.; Sonmez, M.; Yuce, A.; Guvenc, M.; Ozkan, H. Arslan
    The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on some reproductive characteristics, testicular and pancreatic oxidative status and pancreatic endocrine receptor densities of male offspring at post-pubertal stage. A total of 36 1-day-old Wistar Albino male offspring including 12 pups of nontreated mothers (control group), 14 pups of 40mg/kg STZ-injected mothers (STZ-40 group) and 10 pups of 60mg/kg STZ-injected mothers (STZ-60 group) were used. The offspring were euthanised on post-natal day 60, their blood, reproductive organs and pancreatic tissues were obtained and examined. When compared with the control group, there was a significant decrease in body and absolute reproductive organ weights, serum testosterone level, testicular and pancreatic catalase activities, pancreatic glutathione level, epididymal sperm concentration of both STZ-40 and STZ-60 groups as well as in testicular glutathione level of only STZ-60 group. Significant increases were determined in testicular and pancreatic malondialdehyde level and glutathione peroxidase activity in both groups and in fasting serum glucose of only STZ-60 group in comparison with the control group. Although some histopathological damages were observed in testes of both STZ-40 and STZ-60 groups, there were no detectable differences between the groups in density of insulin, glucagon and somatostatin receptors in pancreas. In conclusion, GDM has negative effects on reproductive efficiency and testicular-pancreatic tissue oxidant/antioxidant balance of male offspring at post-pubertal stage.

    The Effects of Lung Ischaemia/Reperfusion on TRPM Gene Expression
    (Univ West Indies Faculty Medical Sciences, 2021) Atabay, H. D.; Demir, T.; Dokuyucu, Recep; Yumrutas, O.; Oztuzcu, S.; Ceribasi, A. O.; Bayraktar, R.
    Objective: Transient receptor potential melastatin (TRPM) are integral membrane proteins that have broad range of cellular functions. Roles of TRPM2, TRPM3, TRPM4 and TRPM7 among these channels are very important, and their roles in lung ischaemia/reperfusion injury have not been evaluated yet. The aim of this study is to investigate the contribution of these genes in lung ischaemia/reperfusion injury and evaluate histopathology of tissues. Methods: A total of 40 Wistar albino rats were enrolled for the study. Ischaemia was performed by the application of an atramvatic clamp to pulmonary artery. Gene expressions were determined by the semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction method. Histopatholical evaluations were held by a standard haematoxyline-eosin staining. Results: The major histopathological tissue damage was observed in ischaemia performed groups, and expression of TRPM channels was found to be obviously downregulated. Substantial changes were determined between TRPM2, TRPM3, TRPM4 and TRPM7 and lung ischaemia/reperfusion injury. In particular; expression of TRPM2 and TRPM7 was reversibly downregulated in ischaemia. Yet, the expression of TRPM3 and TRPM4 was irreversibly downregulated after ischaemia. Conclusion: Consequently, these results indicate that TRPM family of cation channels may have significant roles in the lung ischaemia/reperfusion injury.

    Negative effect of feeding with high energy diets on testes and metabolic blood parameters of male Japanese quails, and positive role of milk thistle seed
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2020) Ceribasi, S.; Turk, G.; Ozcelik, M.; Dogan, G.; Ceribasi, A. O.; Mutlu, S. Iflazoglu; Erisir, Z.
    In this study, it was aimed to investigate the changes in testicular tissue and cell count, testicular oxidative stress and some metabolic blood parameters of male broiler Japanese quails fed with high energy diet and milk thistle (Silybum marianum) seed. One hundred-twenty male 15-day-old Japanese quail chicks were divided into 4 equal groups with 30 each. The applications in each group were repeated 3 times with 10 animals each. Control group was fed with basal diet. Milk thistle seed group was fed with diet including 1% milk thistle seed. High energy diet group was fed with high energy diet including 10% corn syrup. High energy diet + milk thistle seed group was fed with high energy diet including 10% corn syrup along with 1% milk thistle seed. The feeding period in all groups was 35 days. When the quails reached 50 days old, a total of 48, 12 from each group (4 from each replication) were euthanized and blood samples and testes were collected. Compared with the control group, significant increases in body weight, serum cholesterol and glucose level, aspartate aminotransferase activity and testicular malondialdehyde level; however, significant decreases in serum testosterone level, testicular glutathione peroxidase activity, counts of round and elongated spermatid and sperm as well as histopathologically, significant decreases in seminiferous tubular diameter and seminiferous epithelium thickness, and marked disorganization in germinal cells were determined in quails fed with high energy diet. It was observed that almost all of the disturbances in testicular tissue, cell number, oxidant-antioxidant balance and metabolic blood parameters caused by feeding with high energy diet were significantly prevented by supplementation of milk thistle seed to the diet with high energy. On the other hand, alone milk thistle seed and high energy diet + milk thistle seed administrations decreased body weight in comparison to control and high energy diet groups. As a result, feeding with high energy diet causes disturbances in testes of male quails by affecting liver metabolic functions and testicular oxidant-antioxidant balance, but milk thistle seed addition to diet plays a protective role.
