PLASMEPSIN INHIBITORS; IS PLA2 ENZYME THE NATURAL INHIBITOR IN HUMANS AGAINST PLASMEPSINS PRODUCED BY MALARIAL PARASITE IN THEIR ERYTHROCYTIC CYCLE?
Authors: Tyagi Manoj G 
Published: October 2019

Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease that affects humans and other animals. Most deaths in malarial infection are caused by P. falciparum because P. vivax, P. ovale, and P. malariae generally cause a milder form of malaria. Within the red blood cells, the parasites multiply further, again asexually, periodically breaking out of their host cells to invade fresh red blood cells. Several such amplification cycles occur. Thus, classical descriptions of waves of fever arise from simultaneous waves of merozoites escaping and infecting red blood cells. Plasmepsin is a hemoglobin-degrading enzyme produced by the plasmodium parasite. It is an aspartic acid protease having 2 aspartic acid residues in the active site. On the other hand phospholipase A2 levels are increased in malarial infection and this may possibly provide protection against the effects of plasmepsin. This review examines the importance of this enzyme and interaction with plasmepsin.

Döviz Kuru Getiri Oynaklığı Modellemesi: Dolar, Euro ve Sterlin Serileri Üzerine Garch, Egarch ve Igarch Modelleri İle Bir İnceleme
Authors: TOPALOĞLU Emre Esat 
Published: October 2019

Çalışmada Dolar, Euro ve Sterlin döviz kuru serilerine
ilişkin getiri oynaklığı modellemesi yapmak amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç
doğrultusunda 05.01.2000-13.09.2018 dönemindeki günlük verilerin sürekli
getirileri hesaplanarak analiz kapsamında incelenmiştir. Oynaklık modellemesi için serinin durağanlığı
sağlanmış, Schwarz bilgi kriteri esas alınarak en uygun ARMA başlangıç modeli
belirlenmiş ve serilerdeki değişen varyans, otokorelasyon ve doğrusal olmayan
unsurların varlığı araştırılmıştır. Analiz sonucunda, EUR serisi için GARCH
(2,1), USD serisi için EGARCH (1, 2) ve GBP serisi için IGARCH (1,1) modelleri
ile oynaklık modellemesi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Model sonuçlarına göre, EUR serisi için oynaklığa etki eden şokların
kalıcı bir etki yaratmadığı tespit edilirken, EUR serisine gelen bir şokun etkisinin ve şoku
üzerinden atmasının yaklaşık 8.09 gün sürdüğü belirlenmiştir. USD serisinde
meydana gelen pozitif bir şokun, aynı büyüklükteki negatif şoktan daha fazla
etki yarattığı ve şokların getiri oynaklığı üzerinde asimetrik bir etkiye sahip
olmadığı ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Ayrıca USD serisine gelen bir şokun etkisinin yaklaşık 2.30 gün sürdüğü de belirlenmiştir.
GBP serisinde ise şokların
kalıcı bir etki yarattığı ve ağırlıklı olarak bir önceki
dönemde meydana geldiği tespit edilmiştir.
