    Comparison of chemopreventive effects of Vitamin E plus selenium versus melatonin in 7,12-dimethylbenz(a) anthracene-induced mouse brain damage
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2004) Batcioglu, K; Karagözler, AA; Ozturk, IC; Genc, M; Bay, A; Ozturk, F; Aydogdu, N
    In this work, the protective effect of Vitamin E plus selenium (Vit E + Se) and melatonin against 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (7,12DMBA)-induced changes in superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx), catalase (CAT) and carbonic anhydrase (CA) activities and malonedialdehyde (MDA) levels of mouse brain were compared. 12-month old mice were divided into four groups each including 10 animals. The first group served as control group. The second group was treated with 7,12-DMBA (20 mg/(kg day)). The third group was treated with 7,12-DMBA and Vitamin E (90 mu g/(individual day)) and selenium (1.8 mu g/(individual day)) simultaneously. The fourth group was treated with 7, 12-DMBA and melatonin (4.2 mg/(kg day)) simultaneously. Treatment continued for 21 days after which the mice were sacrificed and brain homogenates were prepared. 7,12-DMBA treated group exhibited significantly decreased levels of brain SOD, GSHPx, CAT and CA activities and increased MDA levels as compared to control. Vitamin E + Se fully or partially restored enzyme inhibition except for SOD. Lipid peroxidation was also reduced in Vitamin E + Se treated group. Melatonin provided a better protection for SOD, GSHPx and CAT, and a plausible protection for CA activity. Protection against lipid peroxidation measured as MDA in melatonin treated group was appreciable although slightly lesser than the protection provided by Vitamin E + Se. The results imply that Vitamin E + Se and melatonin both provide chemoprevention against 7,12-DMBA-induced oxidative stress in mouse brain. (c) 2004 International Society for Preventive Oncology.

    Lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status in stomach cancer
    (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2006) Batcioglu, K; Mehmet, N; Ozturk, IC; Yilmaz, M; Aydogdu, N; Erguvan, R; Uyumlu, B
    Background: Considerable evidences have linked oxidative damage and cancer. In this article, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) activities, and malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide metabolites' levels (NOx) were investigated in patients with stomach cancer. Methods: All measurments were done by spectrophotometric techniques. Results: We observed a significant decrease in the activities of SOD and CAT in tumour tissues when compared with control tissues. The different of GSHPx activities and NO metabolite' levels were not statistically significant. MDA levels were significantly increased. Conclusions: We conclude that increased MDA levels and decreased antioxidant enzyme activities can be valuable parameters in assessing the possible risk of cancer.
