“…Arylesterase (AE) activity, which is not affected by the presence of salt, was measured with phenyl acetate as a substrate as described earlier (10,30). The assay tube contained 750 mL 0.1 mol/L Tris-HCl (pH=8.5), 1 mmol/L CaCl 2 and 125 mL 12 mmol/L phenyl acetate and 125 mL serum (1:10 diluted with water).…”

“…Human ghrelin (hunger hormone) is a novel peptide hormone, which is predominantly synthesized in the stomach (10,12,13), but it is also synthesized in several other tissues including the central nervous system, kidney, heart, parathyroid glands, the small and large intestines, a-cells of the pancreatic islet (14), placenta (15), and salivary gland (16). It sti mulates growth hormone (GH) secretion and acts as a signal for the regulation of food intake, energy expenditure and fat accumulation, and body weight gain (12,17).…”

“…No differences were found in terms of PON1 activity between patients with depression and controls 17 . A diminished PON1 activity was also reported 13,18,19 . In addition, long-term AD treatment seems to increase the paraoxonase/ arylesterase levels in patients with depression 19 .…”

“…Yapılan çalışmalarda ghrelinin nöroprotektiyonda önemli koruyucu etkisi olduğu bildirilmiştir (25). Literatürde depresif hastalarda düşük (26), yüksek (27) veya değişmeyen ghrelin seviyeleri bildirilmiştir (28). Depresyon hastalarında birbirinden farklı sonuçların bulunması depresyonda ghrelinin rolü ile ilgili bazı tartışmalara neden olmaktadır.…”
