Item Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Cancer(GALENOS PUBL HOUSE, 2016-01-01) Demir, Ceyda Erel KirisogluObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. There is growing evidence that patients with OSA have higher incidence of cancer, accelerated progression and cancer mortality. Intermittent hypoxia, oxidative stress and sleep fragmentation are hold responsible for cancer development.Item The Role of Stem Cells in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome(GALENOS PUBL HOUSE, 2015-01-01) Demir, Ceyda Erel KirisogluAdult stem cells are undifferentiated cells that are present particularly in the bone marrow. Several stimuli, such as inflammation and oxidative stress can mobilize these cells from the bone marrow into the circulating blood and stem cells repair tissue, organ and vascular injuries. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is a systemic inflammatory disease with severe cardiovascular consequences. The role of stem cells in obstructive sleep apnea is studied in this review.
