Chemical characterization of water-soluble ions in highly time-resolved atmospheric fine particles in Istanbul megacity.

The diurnal and seasonal variations of water-soluble ions (WSIs) in fine particles were investigated in an area predominantly affected by traffic emissions in Beşiktaş, Istanbul between 2017 and 2018. PM samples were collected at high time resolutions of 2 h during the daytime and 12 h during the nighttime for six sampling campaigns over all seasons. Five inorganic water-soluble ions (SO, NH, NO, PO, and NO) were determined using ion chromatography.

Identification of natural compounds of Jurinea species by LC-HRMS and GC-FID and their bioactivities.

The Jurinea Cass. is one of the most important genera within Asteraceae and it comprises about 250 species in total. This genus is known for its numerous biological activities such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, antilipid peroxidation, anticholinesterase, antileishmanial activities.

Episodic psychosis, ataxia, motor neuropathy with pyramidal signs (PAMP syndrome) caused by a novel mutation in ADPRHL2 (AHR3).

Background: The protein "ADP-Ribosylarginine Hydrolase-Like Protein 2" is encoded by ADPRHL2 and reverses ADP-ribosylation. Recently, mutations in ADPRHL2 were found to be associated with a very rare childhood onset severe neurodegeneration syndrome with episodic, stress-induced seizures, ataxia, and axonal neuropathy. In this study, we evaluate a novel mutation in ADPRHL2 leading to an unknown adult onset syndrome "episodic psychosis, ataxia, motor neuropathy with pyramidal signs (PAMP syndrome).

Viscum album L. Extracts Protects HeLa Cells against Nuclear and Mitochondrial DNA Damage.

Viscum album L. is a semiparasitic plant grown on trees and widely used for the treatment of many diseases in traditional and complementary therapy. It is well known that some activities of Viscum album extracts are varied depending on the host trees, such as antioxidant, apoptosis-inducing, anticancer activities of the plant.
