Blood pressure measurement in freely moving rats by the tail cuff method
Erken, Haydar Ali; Erken, Gülten; Genç, Osman (Informa Healthcare, 2013)Inconsistency in consecutive blood pressure values is one of the most frequently observed problems in tail cuff method. The aim of this study was to measure blood pressure using the tail cuff method in rats without heating, ... -
The effects of electromagnetic fields generated from 1800 mhz cell phones on erythrocyte rheological parameters and zinc level in rats
Erken, Gülten; Küçükatay, Melek Bor; Turgut, Sebahat; Erken, Haydar Ali; Çömlekci, Selçuk; Divrikli, Ümit; Genç, Osman (Aves, 2012)Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the electromagnetic field generated from the 1800 MHz radiofrequency radiation (EF) on erythrocyte rheological parameters and erythrocyte zinc levels. ... -
Exercise and DHA prevent the negative effects of hypoxia on EEG and nerve conduction velocity
Erken, Haydar Ali; Erken, Gülten; Çolak, Rıdvan; Genç, Osman (Mary Ann Liebert, 2013)Erken, Haydar Ali, Gulten Erken, Ridvan Colak, Osman Genc.

Orexins cause epileptic activity
Erken, Haydar Ali; Erken, Gülten; Genç, Osman; Kortunay, Selim; Şahiner, Melike; Turgut, Günfer; Turgut, Sebahat (Elsevier Science Inc, 2012)Orexins have been implicated in the regulation of sleep-wake cycle, energy homeostasis, drinking behavior, analgesia, attention, learning and memory but their effects on epileptic activity are controversial. We investigated ... -
Orexins increase penicillin-induced epileptic activity
Kortunay, Selim; Erken, Haydar Ali; Erken, Gülten; Genç, Osman; Şahiner, Melike; Turgut, Sebahat; Turgut, Günfer (Elsevier Science Inc, 2012)Orexins have been implicated with physiological function including sleep-wake cycle, energy homeostasis, drinking behavior, analgesia, attention, learning and memory but their effects on excitability are controversial. We ... -
Possible activation of the immune system by chronic peripheral nesfatin-1 application at the acute phase of ischemia/reperfusion injury
Toru, Ümran; Ayada, Ceylan; Genç, Osman; Akcılar, Raziye; Şahin, Server; Erken, Gülten; Erken, Haydar Ali; Turgut, Günfer; Turgut, Sebahat (Aves, 2015)Objective: Organ transplantation is one of the clinical scenarios involving ischemia and reperfusion process. Ischemia/reperfusion is the pivotal mechanism of organ injury during transplantation. Thus, ischemia/reperfusion ... -

Erken, Haydar Ali; Koç, Emine Rabia; Erken, Gülten; Genç, Osman; Çelik, Hüseyin Tuğrul; Gökçe, Emre Cemal; Ayada, Ceylan; Turgut, Sebahat (Springer, 2015)NUCB2/nesfatin-1 has been implicated in various physiological functions such as feeding, drinking and the sleep-wake cycle, but its effect on epileptic activity is not clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the ... -
Single dose varenicline may trigger epileptic activity
Erken, Haydar Ali; Erken, Gülten; Şimşek, Hasan; Korkut, Oğuzhan; Koç, Emine Rabia; Yavuz, Özlem; Genç, Osman (Springer-Verlag Italia Srl, 2014)Varenicline is a new drug for smoking cessation, and its effect on epilepsy is not clear. The aim of this study was to investigate whether different doses of varenicline cause epileptic activity. Forty rats were randomly ...
