The relationship of plasma catestatin concentrations with metabolic and vascular parameters in untreated hypertensive patients: Influence on high-density lipoprotein cholesterol

Durakoğlugil, Murtaza Emre; Ayaz, Teslime; Kocaman, Sinan Altan; Kırbaş, Aynur; Durakoğlugil, Tuğba; Erdoğan, Turan; Çetin, Mustafa; Şahin, Osman Zikrullah; Çiçek, Yüksel (Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2015)

Objective: Catestatin has several cardiovascular actions, in addition to diminished sympatho-adrenal flow. Decreased plasma catestatin levels may reflect a predisposition for the development of hypertension and metabolic ...

Hair whitening and obesity are independently related to ascending aorta dilatation in young-middle aged men

Çetin, Mustafa; Bozbeyoğlu, Emrah; Erdoğan, Turan; Kocaman, Sinan Altan; Şatıroğlu, Ömer; Durakoğlugil, Murtaza Emre (Kare PUBL, 2019)

OBJECTIVE: Hair whitening (HW) is strongly linked with aging. Ascending aortic dilation (AAD) and HW share common etiologic factors. We investigated the association of HW with ascending aortic diameters. METHODS: Our study ...

Erdoğan, Turan; Çetin, Mustafa; Kocaman, Sinan Altan; Durakoğlugil, Murtaza Emre; Ergül, Elif; Uğurlu, Yavuz; Canga, Aytun (2013)

Amaç: Epikardiyal adipoz doku (EAD) çeşitli enflamatuvar mediyatörler ve büyüme faktörleri salarak miyokart ve vücut üzerine endokrin ve parakrin etkilere sahiptir. Bu çalışmada hipertansiyonlu (HT) hastalarda EAD ve ...

Effect of epicardial adipose tissue on diastolic functions and left atrial dimension in untreated hypertensive patients with normal systolic function

Çetin, Mustafa; Kocaman, Sinan Altan; Durakoğlugil, Murtaza Emre; Erdoğan, Turan; Ergül, Elif; Doğan, Sıtkı; Canga, Aytun (Elsevier, 2013)

Background: Adipose tissue is the source of many adipokines affecting the cardiovascular system either locally or systemically. Although hypertension is one of the most important factors in diastolic dysfunction (DD), the ...

Increased circulating soluble CD40 levels in patients with slow coronary flow phenomenon: an observational study

Durakoğlugil, Murtaza Emre; Kocaman, Sinan Altan; Çetin, Mustafa; Kırbaş, Aynur; Çanga, Aytun; Erdoğan, Turan; Çiçek, Yüksel (2013)

Amaç: Koroner yavaş akım (KYA) epikardiyal koroner arterlerin obstrüktif hastalık olmaksızın yavaş dolması ile karakterize bir durumdur. CD40/ CD40 ligandı (CD40L) sistemi artmış enflamasyon ve protrombotik yatkınlık ...

Plasma catestatin concentration is independently correlated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in untreated hypertensive patients

Purpose Catestatin (CST), a novel peptide derived from Chromogranin A, has diverse cardiovascular actions in addition to diminished sympathoadrenal flow. We intended to investigate metabolic and vascular associations of CST.
