Article Techno-Functional and Antioxidant Properties of Chickpea Proteins Interacted with Green Tea Phenolics-Exploring Benefits for Gel and Emulsion-Based Vegan Foods(Elsevier, 2025) Kavur, Pelin Baris; Sahin, Damla Oyku; Cavdaro Glu, Elif; Buyuk, Miray; Cakitli, Gamze; Hamzaoglu, Fatmagul; Yemenicioglu, AhmetThis study aimed at exploiting protein-polyphenol interactions to enhance techno-functional and antioxidant properties of chickpea proteins. For this purpose, prior to protein extraction, chickpeas were rehydrated in green tea infusion (GTI). Extracted chickpea proteins (CPCGTI) contained free (90.7 mu g/g) and bound (32.0 mu g/g) green tea phenolics (e.g., gallic acid, catechin, epigallocatechin 3-gallate, epicatechin 3-gallate). A close association between chickpea protein and green tea polyphenols was determined considering pH-solubility profile of CPCGTI. CPCGTI showed superior antioxidant potential (6.5-fold), water/oil absorption capacity (1.4-1.5-fold), and gel firmness than control chickpea protein (CPCC). Edible films of CPCGTI also showed 2.4-fold higher antioxidant capacity than those of CPCC. CPCGTI and CPCC showed similar SDS-PAGE patterns, but different alpha-helix and beta-sheet contents evaluated by FTIR. CPCGTI gave thick, creamy and stable mayonnaise while CPCC failed to form mayonnaise. The coconut milk pudding with CPCGTI showed better gelation than that with CPCC. However, foods with CPCGTI had a darker color than those with CPCC. CPCGTI is a novel, highly functional ingredient for manufacturing plant-based food and edible packaging.Article Citation - WoS: 36Citation - Scopus: 38Phytochemical Screening and Evaluation of the Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Activities of Ferula Caspica M. Bieb. Extracts(King Saud University, 2019) Kahraman, Çiğdem; Topçu, Gülaçtı; Bedir, Erdal; Tatlı, İ. İrem; Ekizoğlu, Melike; Akdemir, Zeliha S.Chloroform, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts from the aerial parts of Ferula caspica M. Bieb. were tested for their antioxidant capacities by CUPRAC, ABTS, FRAP, Folin-Ciocalteu and aluminum chloride methods and for antimicrobial activities by the broth microdilution method. Chloroform and ethyl acetate extracts showed the highest antioxidant capacity and antimicrobial activity. Three known sesquiterpene derivatives; 1-(2',4'-dihydroxyphenyl)-3,7,11-trimethyl-3-vinyl-6(E), 10-dodecadien-1-one (1), 2,3-dihydro-7-hydroxy-2,3-dimethyl-2-[4',8'-dimethyl-3',7'-nonadienyl]-furo[3,2,c]coumarin (2), 2,3-dihydro-7-hydroxy-2,3-dimethyl-3-[4',8'-dimethyl-3',7'-nonadienyl]-furo[3,2,c]coumarin(3); phenylpropanoid; laserine/2-epilaserine (4/5) and steroid mixtures; stigmasterol and beta-sitosterol (6/7) were isolated from chloroform extract; three known flavonoids; kaempferol-3-O-beta-glucopyranoside (8), kaempferol-3-O-alpha-rhamnopyranoside (9), quercetin-3-O-beta-glucopyranoside (10), and one benzoic acid derivative; 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (11) were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract. The structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods. (C) 2019 The Authors.

Even though involvement of superoxide dismutase enzymes in ROS scavenging and the aging process has been studied extensively in different organisms, analyses of DNA damages has not been performed for replicatively old superoxide dismutase deficient cells. In this study, we investigated the roles of SOD1, SOD2 and CCS1 genes in preserving genomic integrity in replicatively old yeast cells using the single cell comet assay. We observed that extend of DNA damage was not significantly different among the young cells of wild type, sod1Δ and sod2Δ strains. However, ccs1Δ mutants showed a 60% higher amount of DNA damage in the young stage compared to that of the wild type cells. The aging process increased the DNA damage rates 3-fold in the wild type and more than 5-fold in sod1Δ, sod2Δ, and ccs1Δ mutant cells. Furthermore, ROS levels of these strains showed a similar pattern to their DNA damage contents. Thus, our results confirm that cells accumulate DNA damages during the aging process and reveal that superoxide dismutase enzymes play a substantial role in preserving the genomic integrity in this process.Article Citation - WoS: 111Citation - Scopus: 124Salt Tolerance in Solanum Pennellii: Antioxidant Response and Related Qtl(BioMed Central Ltd., 2010) Frary, Anne; Göl, Deniz; Keleş, Davut; Ökmen, Bilal; Pınar, Hasan; Şığva, Hasan Özgür; Yemenicioğlu, Ahmet; Doğanlar, SamiBackground: Excessive soil salinity is an important problem for agriculture, however, salt tolerance is a complex trait that is not easily bred into plants. Exposure of cultivated tomato to salt stress has been reported to result in increased antioxidant content and activity. Salt tolerance of the related wild species, Solanum pennellii, has also been associated with similar changes in antioxidants. In this work, S. lycopersicum M82, S. pennellii LA716 and a S. pennellii introgression line (IL) population were evaluated for growth and their levels of antioxidant activity (total water-soluble antioxidant activity), major antioxidant compounds (phenolic and flavonoid contents) and antioxidant enzyme activities (superoxide dismutase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase and peroxidase) under both control and salt stress (150 mM NaCl) conditions. These data were then used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) responsible for controlling the antioxidant parameters under both stress and nonstress conditions.Results: Under control conditions, cultivated tomato had higher levels of all antioxidants (except superoxide dismutase) than S. pennellii. However, under salt stress, the wild species showed greater induction of all antioxidants except peroxidase. The ILs showed diverse responses to salinity and proved very useful for the identification of QTL. Thus, 125 loci for antioxidant content under control and salt conditions were detected. Eleven of the total antioxidant activity and phenolic content QTL matched loci identified in an independent study using the same population, thereby reinforcing the validity of the loci. In addition, the growth responses of the ILs were evaluated to identify lines with favorable growth and antioxidant profiles.Conclusions: Plants have a complex antioxidant response when placed under salt stress. Some loci control antioxidant content under all conditions while others are responsible for antioxidant content only under saline or nonsaline conditions. The localization of QTL for these traits and the identification of lines with specific antioxidant and growth responses may be useful for breeding potentially salt tolerant tomato cultivars having higher antioxidant levels under nonstress and salt stress conditions.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7The Roles of Thiol Oxidoreductases in Yeast Replicative Aging(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Hacıoğlu, Elise; Esmer, Işıl; Fomenko, Dmitri E.; Gladyshev, Vadim N.; Koç, AhmetThiol-based redox reactions are involved in the regulation of a variety of biological functions, such as protection against oxidative stress, signal transduction and protein folding. Some proteins involved in redox regulation have been shown to modulate life span in organisms from yeast to mammals. To assess the role of thiol oxidoreductases in aging on a genome-wide scale, we analyzed the replicative life span of yeast cells lacking known and candidate thiol oxidoreductases. The data suggest the role of several pathways in controlling yeast replicative life span, including thioredoxin reduction, protein folding and degradation, peroxide reduction, PIP3 signaling, and ATP synthesis. © 2010 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.Article Citation - WoS: 72Citation - Scopus: 87Adsorption of Olive Leaf (olea Europaea L.) Antioxidants on Silk Fibroin(American Chemical Society, 2007) Bayçın, Deniz; Altıok, Evren; Ülkü, Semra; Bayraktar, OğuzThe adsorption isotherms of oleuropein and rutin were evaluated at different temperatures, pH values, and solid/liquid ratios. The experimental data of adsorption isotherms were well fitted to a Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacities were determined as 108 mg of oleuropein/g of silk fibroin and 21 mg of rutin/g of silk fibroin. After adsorption of oleuropein and rutin, the antioxidant capacity of silk fibroin increased from 1.93 to 3.61 mmol of TEAC/g. Silk fibroin also gained antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae after adsorption of olive leaf antioxidants. In a desorption process, 81% of rutin and 85% of oleuropein were removed from the adsorbent surface in 70% aqueous ethanol solution. Consequently, silk fibroin was found to be a promising biomaterial for the production of functional food or dietary supplements and for the purification of oleuropein and rutin from olive leaf extracts.
