AbstractInsecticides Targeting Ion Channels Insecticides are chemical substances that have been widely used against insects in many areas, particularly in agriculture. Insecticides show their effect on insects with different modes of actions. Ion channels which control input and output of vital ions to the cell, are transmembrane proteins located in the cell membrane and form the specific sites for the killing effects of insecticides on insects. Recent studies have shown that the modes of action of insecticides could be similar to the physiological pathways in mammals and insecticides can threaten human health. In this review, the insecticides targeted to ion channels in the cell membrane and mechanisms of their action were examined.
Türkçe Özet: İnsektisitler, başta tarım olmak üzere birçok alanda yaygın olarak kullanılan böcek öldürücü kimyasal maddelerdir. İnsektisitlerin böcekler üzerine etkileri çeşitli mekanizmalar ile olabilmektedir. Hücrede yaşamsal öneme sahip olan iyonların hücreye giriş-çıkışını kontrol etmede görev alan iyon kanalları, hücre zarına yerleşmiş olan transmembran proteinler olup, insektisitlerin böceklerdeki öldürücü etkisi için özgül bölgeleri oluştururlar. Son yıllarda yapılan çalışmalar insektisitlerin etki ettikleri fizyolojik yolların memelilerde de benzer olabileceğini ve insan sağlığını tehdit edebileceğini göstermektedir. Bu derlemede, hücre zarındaki iyon kanallarını hedef alan insektisitler ve etki mekanizmaları incelenmiştir.

MEU Journal of Health Sciences Assoc was began to the publishing process in 2008 under the supervision of Assoc. Prof. Gönül Aslan, Editor-in-Chief, and affiliated to Mersin University Institute of Health Sciences. In March 2015, Prof. Dr. Caferi Tayyar Şaşmaz undertook the Editor-in Chief position and since then he has been in charge.
Publishing in three issues per year (April - August - December), it is a multisectoral refereed scientific journal. In addition to research articles, scientific articles such as reviews, case reports and letters to the editor are published in the journal. Our journal, which has been published via e-mail since its inception, has been published both online and in print. Following the Participation Agreement signed with TÜBİTAK-ULAKBİM Dergi Park in April 2015, it has started to accept and evaluate online publications.
