Aim: Belonging to the group of flavonoids, Engeletin is a molecule with strong anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anticancer properties. However, the effect of this molecule on breast cancer cells has not been studied yet. For this purpose, the effectiveness of Engeletin (ENG) on cell proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis in the human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) was investigated in this study. Material and Method: ENG was studied at 1, 10, and 100 µM doses in the MCF-7 cell line. In the study, cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT cell viability test, its effectiveness on invasion was analyzed by Transwell assay, and cellular viability and apoptotic evaluation were analyzed by fluorescence staining method. Results: It was determined that engeletin reduced MCF-7 cell proliferation. The ENG 100 µM dose was found to be the most effective dose. While ENG application decreases the number of viable cells, it causes an increase in the number of apoptotic cells. In addition, it was determined that ENG application significantly reduced the number of invasive cells in a dose-dependent manner compared to the control group (p<0.001). Conclusion: Engeletin is a molecule with anti-carcinogenic, antiproliferative activity on MCF-7 cells. In addition, ENG shows an antiinvasive activity in MCF-7 cells, demonstrating that it is a molecule with anti-metastatic activity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of the study was to determine whether calcium chloride affects the proliferation of osteoblast like cells in a sex-dependent manner, as well as to determine the most effective concentration on proliferation of osteoblast like cells, in in vitro conditions. Bone marrow was used as biological material from young adult rats, both sexes, aged 90-95 days. Six different concentrations of calcium chloride were tested, determining the numerical representation of osteoblast like cells after 24 and 48 hours. Test results of mean values between males and females after 24 hours, indicate significant differences with a probability of P<0.05 at calcium chloride concentrations of: 0.25 mM and 1.8 mM. Results after 48 hours showed that there were no significant differences at most CaCl2 concentrations. It was found that male osteoblast like cells show a higher affinity for different calcium chloride concentrations when compared to the female osteoblast like cells. The calcium chloride concentration of 0.25 mM affected the proliferation of osteoblast like cells most favorably, which is 26.6% higher than the control values. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: Endometriosis is a gynecological syndrome that affects many women around the world. The effective management for this illness has not been determined. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and metformin on Bax/Bcl-2, Ki67, VEGF, TNF-α, and endometrial implants in endometriosis mice. Materials and Methods: Thirty mice with endometriosis were equally divided into 5 experimental groups (S1: 0.1 ml MSCs + 4 mg metformin; S2: 0.1 ml MSCs; S3: 4 mg metformin; S4: 0.1 ml NaCl 9%; and S5: 4 mg metformin + subsequent 0.1 ml MSCs) for 14 days. On the 15th day, peritoneal tissues of mice and endometrial implants were removed to examine the expressions of Bax/Bcl-2, Ki67, VEGF, and TNF-α using immunohistochemical staining, and Allred index and endometrial implants using image tracing method with a computer. The obtained data were analyzed using the Kruskal- Wallis and ANOVA tests, followed by the Least Significant Difference (LSD) and Mann-Whitney Post-hoc tests. Results: There were significant differences in the expressions of Bax/Bcl-2 (p=0.002), Ki67 (p=0.004), TNF-α (p=0.017), and endometrial implants (p=0.001) in all groups, except for VEGF (p=0.079). The values of S2 didn’t differ much compared to the control group (S4) in the Bax/Bcl-2 (p=0.487), TNF-α (p=0.191), and endometrial implants (p=0.2). S1 was found to have the highest Bax/Bcl-2 (1.67±0.845) and lowest TNF-α (4.67±2.15) and endometrial implant (0.86±2.11). Conclusion: MSCs alone had not any beneficial effect on the treatment of endometriosis, whereas metformin by itself exhibited favorable results. The combination of MSCs and metformin at the same time shows superior outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Aim: Olivetol, is a phenolic compound found in certain species of lichen, is known with it's anti-oxidant and anti-cholinergic effects. However, the functions of olivetol in cancer cell have not been investigated yet. We evaluated the effects of olivetol on the cell proliferation and invasion of human neuroblastoma cells. Material and Method: Human neuroblastoma SHSY-5Y cell line was used in this study. Olivetol was administered to groups at the doses of 50 and 100µM. Cell proliferation was analyzed by real time cell analyzer xCelligence. The expressions of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP2 and MMP9) were assessed by RT-PCR. Effects of olivetol on invasion were determined by transwell matrigel assays. Results: It was investigated that olivetol inhibited human neuroblastoma SHSY-5Y cell proliferation. High dose of olivetol (100µM) almost killed the total cells at the end of the 72 hours. It was also seen that olivetol decreased MMP2 and MMP9 gene expressions of neuroblastoma cells in dose dependent manner. Looking at the invasion results, it was determined that olivetol treatment inhibited the invasion of SHSY-5Y cells. Conclusion: This results showed that olivetol inhibits of neuroblastoma cell proliferations. Olivetol can be used to prevent invasion of SHSY-5Y cells, due to its inhibitory effect on MMP2 and MMP9. Olivetol can be considered as an alternative candidate in the treatment of neuroblastoma, as it suppresses matrix metalloproteinase levels. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The study was carried out to investigate the effect of thymoquinone (TQ), one of the important ingredients of Nigella sativa (N. Sativa-black seed) used in traditional treatment of many diseases and production of some drugs, on the expression level of some major genes involved in cell proliferation in the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. NRK-52E cell line was used as study material. The proliferative concentration of TQ was determined by MTT viability assay by treating different concentrations of TQ on the cells. The determined TQ concentration was administered to the cells and the expression levels of the important junctional genes in the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway were determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). It was determined that TQ increased cell viability up to a certain concentration, and then caused cytotoxicity with increasing concentration. In this study, the proliferative concentration of TQ was determined as 10 µM. It was detected that 24 hours after TQ administration, ERBB2, a receptor tyrosine kinase subunit, increased with the increase in PI3K and AKT1 gene levels, however a decrease in the mTOR expression level. According to these data, it is thought that consuming TQ and its contents in low concentrations may be beneficial, whereas consumption in high concentrations may lead to kidney damage. It was concluded that this possibility is worth investigating and it may be useful to plan further studies for this purpose and shed light on future studies in investigating the effect of TQ on different cell types at the molecular level.

Objectives: Breast cancer (BC) is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women worldwide with a high mortality rate, despite early detection and treatment. Spindle and kinetochore-associated complex subunit 3 (SKA3) is closely correlated with patient outcomes in several cancers. The present study aimed to elucidate the role of SKA3 in BC. Methods: The biological functions of SKA3 was investigated by proliferation and migration assays in MDA-MB-231 cells with stable SKA3 knockdown and Hs578T cells ectopically expressing SKA3. Gene Expression Omnibus datasets were utilised to determine the correlation between SKA3 expression and clinical features of BC patients. Results: We confirmed that SKA3 mRNA expression is higher in breast tumour tissue than in normal tissue, and that higher SKA3 expression is associated with poor survival rate of BC patients. Knockdown of SKA3 reduced MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation and migration, whereas SKA3 overexpression enhanced the proliferative and migratory ability of Hs578T cells. We also found that SKA3 is involved in regulating cell cycle progression in mitotic exit. Conclusions: These results suggest that SKA3 is correlated with BC cell proliferation and migration by promoting cell cycle progression, and could be a novel potential therapeutic target for BC treatment. Giriş: Meme kanseri (BC), erken tespit ve tedaviye rağmen, yüksek mortalite oranı ile dünya çapında kadınlarda en sık teşhis edilen kanserdir. Kromozomların bağlandığı lifler ve kinetokor ile ilişkili kompleks alt birim 3 (SKA3), çeşitli kanser türlerinde hasta sonuçlarıyla yakından ilişkilidir. Amaç: Bu çalışma, SKA3'ün BC'deki rolünü aydınlatmayı amaçlamaktadır. Yöntemler: SKA3'ün biyolojik fonksiyonları, stabil SKA3 knockdown'lu MDA-MB-231 hücrelerinde ve SKA3'ü ektopik olarak eksprese eden Hs578T hücrelerinde proliferasyon ve migrasyon deneyleri ile araştırıldı. Gen İfadesi Omnibus veri setleri, BC hastalarının SKA3 ekspresyonu ile klinik özellikleri arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek için kullanıldı. Bulgular: SKA3 mRNA ekspresyonunun göğüs tümör dokusunda normal dokudan daha yüksek olduğunu ve daha yüksek SKA3 ekspresyonunun BC hastalarının zayıf hayatta kalma oranı ile ilişkili olduğunu doğruladık. SKA3'ün yok edilmesi, MDA-MB-231 hücre proliferasyonunu ve göçünü azaltırken, SKA3 aşırı ekspresyonu, Hs578T hücrelerinin proliferatif ve göç etme kabiliyetini arttırdı. Ayrıca SKA3'ün mitotik çıkışta hücre döngüsü ilerlemesinin düzenlenmesinde rol oynadığını bulduk. Sonuçlar: Bu sonuçlar, SKA3'ün, hücre döngüsü ilerlemesini teşvik ederek BC hücre proliferasyonu ve göçü ile ilişkili olduğunu ve BC tedavisi için yeni bir potansiyel terapötik hedef olabileceğini düşündürmektedir.

OTITIS , *CHOLESTEATOMA , *CELL proliferation - Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate bcl-2, bax, and c-erbB-2 expressions in primary and secondary acquired cholesteatoma and to indicate the role of apoptosis and accompanying increased cellular proliferation in the pathogenesis of cholesteatoma. Methods: Samples obtained from the skin of the external ear canal (EEC) of patients operated for chronic otitis media (COM) without cholesteatoma constituted Group 1; samples from the EEC skin of patients in Group 3 operated for COM with cholesteatoma and from the EEC skin of patients in Group 4 constituted Group 2; samples obtained from the cholesteatoma matrix of patients operated for COM with primary acquired cholesteatoma constituted Group 3; and samples obtained from the cholesteatoma matrix of patients operated for COM with secondary acquired cholesteatoma constituted Group 4. The assessment of the positive cell ratio was based on the presence of the following findings and was semiquantitatively classified into four groups: 0, no staining; + cell staining (weak positive staining: 1%-33%); ++ cell staining (moderately positive staining: 34%-66%); and +++ cell staining (strong positive staining: 67%-100%). Results: Comparison of the staining scores of bcl-2, bax, and c-erbB-2 revealed a statistically insignificant difference in the staining of samples obtained from the EEC skin (p>0.05). Decreased bcl-2 expression and increased bax and c-erbB-2 expressions were determined in primary and secondary acquired cholesteatoma epithelium compared with the EEC skin of patients operated for COM with or without cholesteatoma, and the differences were found to be statistically significant (p<0.05). Conclusion: In acquired cholesteatoma epithelium, the finding of decreased bcl-2 expression as well as increased bax and c-erbB-2 expressions compared with the EEC skin is an indicator of the increase in both cellular proliferation and apoptosis.

Bu tez Dr. Dıbırdık ve talebelerinin antikanser aktviteye sahip yeni kimyasal yapılar keşfine yönelik çalışmaları sırasında HT-29 insan kolon kanser modeli üzerinde etkili etnofarmakolojik bir ürünü keşfetmeleri üzerine kuruludur. Bu çalışmada ürünün majör kimyasal bileşenleri gallik asit, tiyofanoks, sülfisomidin, trifenilfosfit, nadolol’ün antiproliferatif etkileri ve kemoterapötikler 5-florourasil, okzaliplatin ve setuksimab ile kombinasyon etkileri incelendi. Takibinde, sinerjistik ilaç kombinasyonlarının nanolipozomal formülasyonları geliştirildi ve antiproliferatif etkileri araştırıldı. Gallik asit HT-29 hücre proliferasyonunu doz-bağımlı baskılamıştır. Tiyofanoks, sülfisomidin, trifenilfosfit ve nadolol’ün antiproliferatif etkileri gözlenmemiştir. Gallik asit’in, 5-florourasil veya okzaliplatin ile kombinasyonu sinerjistik antiproliferatif etki göstermiştir. Gallik asit ve 5-florourasil veya gallik asit ve okzaliplatin kombinasyonları, zaman-bağımlı ve sinerjistik olarak apoptozu indüklemiştir. Gallik asit ve 5-florourasil veya gallik asit ve okzaliplatin kombinasyonlarının nanolipozomal formülasyonları, serbest ilaç formlarından daha fazla antiproliferatif etki göstermiştir. Çalışmamız, gallik asit’in kolon kanseri tedavisinde komplementer ajan olarak 5-florourasil veya okzaliplatin ile kullanılabileceğini gösteren literatürdeki ilk çalışmadır. İkili ilaç yüklü nanolipozomal formülasyonların, kolon kanseri tedavisi için umut vaat eden yeni nanoterapötik formülasyonlar olduğu görülmüştür. Söz konusu in vitro sonuçlar temelinde, in vivo çalışmaların tasarlanıp yürütülmesinin elde edilen sonuçlara önemli katkı sağlaması ve ileriki klinik çalışmalar için de bir temel oluşturması düşünülmektedir. This thesis is established on the discovery of an ethnopharmacological product that is effective on HT-29 human colon cancer model during Dr. Dıbırdık and his student’s studies to discover new chemical structures with anticancer activity. In this study, the antiproliferative effects of major chemical entities of this product gallic acid, thiofanox, sulfisomidine, triphenylphosphite, nadolol, and their combination with chemotherapeutics 5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and cetuximab were examined. Following, nanoliposomal formulations of synergistic drug combinations were developed and their anti-proliferative effects were investigated. Gallic acid suppressed the HT-29 cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Anti-proliferative effects of thiofanox, sulfisomidine, triphenylphosphite, and nadolol were not observed. Combination of gallic acid with 5-fluorouracil or oxaliplatin showed a synergistic antiproliferative effect. Gallic acid and 5-fluorouracil or gallic acid and oxaliplatin combinations induced apoptosis synergistically and in a time-dependent manner. Nanoliposomal formulations of gallic acid and 5-fluorouracil or gallic acid and oxaliplatin combinations exhibited greater antiproliferative effects than free drug forms. Our study is the first study in the literature showing that gallic acid can be used as a complementary agent in the treatment of colon cancer with 5-fluorouracil or oxaliplatin. Dual drug-loaded nanoliposomal formulations have been shown to be promising new nanotherapeutic formulations for the treatment of colon cancer. Based on these in vitro results, it is thought that the design and execution of in vivo studies will make a significant contribution to the obtained results and may form a basis for future clinical studies.

- Abstract
Objective: This study investigated the effects of a Rho kinase inhibitor on vascular endothelial cells. Material and Methods: Human umbilical venous endothelial cells (HUVECs) were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection. Cells were seeded in 96-well gelatin coated microtiter plates at a concentration of 1x104 cells/ml in a final volume of 100 µ1 per well. Three groups were established: a control group and groups with rho kinase inhibitor (fasudil) added at concentrations of 5 or 6 mM. These baseline cultures were then observed for 72 hours. Results: A strong linear cell proliferation was seen in the control and the rho kinase inhibitor groups. The average concentration was 1.063 for the 5 mMol fasudil group and 1.147 for the 6 mM group, and this difference was statistically significant (p=0.044). The number of cells analyzed at 24 to 48 hours showed a significant difference, but the cell numbers between 48 and 72 hours did not differ statistically. Conclusion: Fasudil did not show any cytotoxicity to endothelial cells; on the contrary, it promoted cell proliferation. The increase in endothelial cell proliferation and vascular stenosis was caused by neointimal hyperplasia, which would be detrimental in diseases such as stent stenosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the present study three different cell cultures, derived from rabbit kidney (RK13), rat liver (WBF344) and insect origin (Sf21), were used to examine the cytotoxic effect of the insecticide endosulfan. Cytotoxicity was determined on the basis of cell proliferation activity; the cellular damage was assessed by evaluation of cytopathic effect and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage. Endosulfan treatment suppressed proliferative activity in cell cultures as follows: insect Sf21 cells (10-1-10-5 M; PcO.OI) > WBF344 (lO-1-1O-4 M) > RK13 cells (10-1-10-3 M). LDH leakage into the medium was increased in WBF344 cells at 10-1-10-3 M (P<0.01), whereas in RK13 and Sf21 cells at 10 '-102 M (P<0.05) compared to solvent control. These results indicate cell type-dependent sensitivity to endosulfan exposure. Endosulfan caused a more pronounced decrease in insect cell proliferation in comparison with mammalian cell cultures; however, the LDH leakage and microscopical signs of cellular damage were the most intensive in liver cells.

Objective: The aim of this study was to encapsulate vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microspheres using a water-in-oil-in-water emulsification method. Particle size distribution and surface morphology of PLGA microspheres and VEGF loaded PLGA microspheres were investigated. The effect of VEGF in free form and VEGF loaded in PLGA microspheres were also evaluated in the cell culture for cell proliferation and cytotoxicity. Material and Method: Particles were sized by laser diffractometry. In vitro release profiles of VEGF from the microspheres were investigated in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer. The VEGF release was assessed using the enzyme linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA). The surface morphology of the microspheres was determined by a scanning electron microscobe. For the evaluation of the cytotoxicity of the formulations and proliferation effect of VEGF, the tetrazolium dye assay (MTT test) was performed.Results: The microspheres were found to be spherical with particle size ranges of 8-12 µµm for PLGA microspheres and 8-159 µm for VEGF loaded PLGA microspheres and the in vitro release results indicated that VEGF was released from the microspheres up to 30 days. According to the cell culture results, the formulations were non-cytotoxic and helps cells proliferate. Conclusion: VEGF loaded microspheres were successfully prepared and their physical properties and in vitro release rate and cytotoxicity tests showed that the microspheres could be used for further in vivo experiments regarding nerve graft prefabrication.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate possible similar or different mechanisms in recurrent and spontaneous abortion by evaluating immunohistochemical correlation between proliferation marker Ki-67, and apoptosis markers Bcl-2 and Bax in the fetal trophoblasts and maternal deciduas from abortion material. Material and Method: Eighty samples of curettage materials from 65 abortion patients histopathologically diagnosed "decidua showing Arias-Stella reaction and chorionic villi" or only "decidua showing Arias-Stella reaction" were included in the study. Hematoxylin&Eosin stained sections from all cases were re-evaluated and further stained immunohistochemically using antibodies against Ki-67, Bcl-2 and Bax. Results: Proliferation rate evaluated by Ki-67 expression both in the cytotrophoblastic cells and decidua was found to be significantly lower in spontaneous and recurrent abortions compared to evacuation abortion. The extent of Bcl-2 expression in syncytiotrophoblastic cells covering villous stroma was also decreased in spontaneous abortion. There were no significant differences between spontaneous and recurrent abortions in terms of Bcl-2 expression in syncytiotrophoblasts and Ki-67 proliferation index in cytotrophoblastic cells or decidua. Bax staining showed minimal decidual expression in a few spontaneous and recurrent abortions. Conclusion: We concluded that proliferation rate was decreased in fetal villous cytotrophoblasts and maternal deciduas in spontaneous and recurrent abortions. We also proposed that loss of Bcl-2 expression in syncytiotrophoblasts may cause abortion in a subset of cases. However, the data from spontaneous and recurrent abortions did not not support the presence of different mechanisms in both groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background and Design: Abnormal differentiation and hyperproliferation of keratinocytes are the hallmarks of psoriasis vulgaris. Although psoriasis vulgaris is generally accepted as a disease of decreased keratinocyte apoptosis, the results are contradictory. The aim of the current study is to investigate whether decreased keratinocyte apoptosis contributes to the formation of a thickened epidermis as increased keratinocyte proliferation. Material and Method: Forty-three untreated psoriasis vulgaris patients and 20 healthy control subjects were included into the study. Biopsy specimens taken from the enrollee were evaluated by immunohistochemical staining for Ki-67 expressions to show the proliferation of keratinocytes and by the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nickend labeling (TUNEL) method to show the apoptotic keratinocytes. Results: Apoptotic index (percentage of the TUNEL positive cells) was significantly lower in psoriatic epidermis (0.33±0.64) than in normal epidermis (0.75±0.85); whereas Ki-67 index (percentage of positively staining cells for Ki-67) was significantly higher in psoriatic epidermis (30.86±10.49) than in normal epidermis (11.65±2.98), (p=0.021 and p=0.00; respectively). Conclusion: Decreased keratinocyte apoptosis also contribute to increased epidermal thickness in psoriasis as well as increased keratinocyte proliferation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Giriş ve amaç: Osteosarkom, mezenkimal dokulardan türetilmiş, yüksek maligniteli yaygın bir tümördür. Osteosarkom genellikle ergenlerde görülür ve büyüme hızlıdır, metastaz ve mortalite oranları yüksektir ve prognozu zayıftır. Kemoterapötik tedavilere cevap verilmemesi, yeni terapötik yöntemlerin araştırılmasının önemini gösterir. N-(4-klorofenil)-1H-indol-2-karboksamid, etkili antioksidan özellikler gösteren, aynı zamanda tirozin kinaz hedefleri üzerinde etkisi olan ümit verici bir terapötik ajandir. Bu bağlamda çalışmamızda, N- (4- Klorofenil) -1 H-İndol-2-Karboksamid'in Saos-2 osteosarkom hücre hattının proliferasyon, apoptoz ve hücre iskeleti üzerindeki etkilerini araştırdık. N- (4-klorofenil) -1 H-indol-2-karboksamidin sitotoksik etkilerini, osteosarkom hücrelerine dayanarak zamana bağlı olarak imatinib mesilatın farmakolojik dozlarını doğrulayarak değerlendirdik. Yöntem ve Gereçler: Bu çalışmada, N- (4-klorofenil) -1 H-indol-2-karboksamid ve Imatinib mesilat dozlarının osteosarkom Saos-2 hücrelerinin hücre canlılığı üzerindeki etkileri MTT tahlili kullanılarak gerçekleştirildi. Ezrin ekspresyon seviyeleri immünofloresan boyama ile incelendi. Bulgular: Antiproliferatif aktivitenin sonuçları, N- (4-klorofenil) -1 H-indol-2-karboksamidin, Saos-2 hücrelerinin hücre proliferasyonunu doza ve zamana bağlı bir şekilde inhibe ettiğini gösterdi. Daha düşük dozlarda N-(4-klorofenil)-1H-indol-2-karboksamidin bile, imatinib mesilat farmakolojik dozlarıyla karşılaştırıldığında osteosarkom hücre dizileri üzerinde etkili olduğunu bulduk. Tartışma ve sonuç: Bu çalışmada ilk kez yeni sentezlenen indol türevi molekülü N-(4-klorofenil)-1Hindol-2-karboksamidin in vitro osteosarkom hücre hattında direnç açısından değerlendirildi. Tüm bu sonuçlar, N- (4-Klorofenil)-1H-İndol-2-Karboksamidin osteosarkom büyümesini ve metastazı inhibe etmek için potansiyel bir terapötik ajan olarak geliştirilebileceğini gösterdi. Anahtar Kelimeler: Osteosarkom, N-(4-Klorofenil)-1H-İndol-2-Karboksamid, hücre proliferasyonu, reaktif oksijen türleri,tirozin kinazlar, Introduction: Osteosarcoma is a common tumor of high malignancy, usually derived from mesenchymal tissues. The lack of response to chemotherapeutic treatments indicates the importance of investigating new therapeutic methods. Indole, which is known to inhibit proliferation on cancer cells, is new synthesized as a derivative of this molecule of N- (4-chlorophenyl) -lH-indole-2-carboxamide, has an effect on osteosarcoma cell line. We evaluated the cytotoxic effects of N- (4-chlorophenyl) -1H-indole-2-carboxamide by verification of pharmacological doses of imatinib mesylate based on time on osteosarcoma cells. Methods: In the present study, the effects of N-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-indole-2-carboxamide and Imatinib mesylate doses on cell viability of osteosarcoma Saos-2 cells were conducted using MTT assay. Ezrin expression levels was examined by immunofluorescence staining. Results: The results of the antiproliferative activity showed that N- (4-chlorophenyl) -1 H-indole-2- carboxamide inhibited cell proliferation of Saos-2 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. We found that even lower doses of N- (4-chlorophenyl) -1H-indole-2-carboxamide was effective on osteosarcoma cell lines when we compared with imatinib mesylate pharmacological doses. Discussion and conclusıon: In this study, for the first time the newly synthesized indole derivative molecule, N- (4-chlorophenyl) -1 H-indole-2-carboxamide was evaluated for resistance in vitro Saos-2 cell line. All these results showed that N- (4-Chlorophenyl) -1 H-Indole-2-Carboxamide can be developed as a potential therapeutic agent for inhibiting osteosarcoma growth and metastasis.

Amaç: Hücrelerin LPS (Lipopolisakkarit)’ye enflamatuvaryanıtları in-vitro deneylerde sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Buna rağmen hücre kültürü çalışmaları için LPS ’nin doğru dozunun belirlenmesinde zorluklarla karşılaşılmaktadır. Maksimum yanıt veren LPS konsantrasyonunun belirlenmesi in vitro enflamatuvar deneyler için kritik bir noktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı LPS’nin 293T insan renal hücre dizisindeki konsantrasyon bağımlı etkisinin yeniden değerlendirilmesidir.Yöntem: Bu çalışmada LPS ile stimule edilmiş 293T hücre hattı Xcelligence Real-Time Cell Analyzer (RTCA) sisteminde incelendi. LPS ’nin artmış konsantrasyonlarının 293T hücre hattı üzerindeki etkisi RTCA cihazında hücre proliferasyonu ölçümleri yapılarak araştırıldı.Bulgular: Sonuçlarımıza göre 2, 4 ve 8 μg’lık LPS konsantrasyonlarını hücre bölünmesini inhibe ederek hücreleri kararlı duruma yönlendirdiğini gösterdi. 1 μg ’lık LPS konsantrasyonu hücreleri mitotik faza sürüklerken daha düşük LPS konsantrasyonlarının ise hücre proliferasyonu üzerinde bir etki göstermedi.Sonuç: Bu çalışmadaki sonuçlara göre LPS konsantrasyonlarının hücre proliferasyonu üzerinde farklı etkilerinin olduğu ve deneysel çalışmalardan önce LPS konsantrasyonlarının optimize edilmesi gerektiği gösterilmiştir., Objective: The inflammatory responsiveness of the cells to Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) is commonly used for in vitro experiments. However, the correct dose of the LPS for cell line experiments is elusive. The LPS concentration that gives the maximal response is a critical point of in vitro inflammatory experiments. The aim of this study was to reevaluate the concentration dependent effect of LPS on the 293T human renal cell line.Methods: We evaluated the cell-detachment assay of LPS-stimulated 293T cell line monitored by xCELLigence Real-Time Cell Analyzer (RTCA) system. We applied increasing concentration of LPS followed by Roche xCELLigence Instrument based on the Real-Time Cell Analysis System.Results:Our results demonstrated that the 2, 4 and 8μg of LPS inhibit cell division which diverts cells to a steady-state phase, 1 μg acts as mitogen. Lower concentrations are no effect on cells.Conclusion:These work showed that LPS concentrations had various effects on cell proliferation and need to be estimated for each experiment before carry out the experiments.

ÖZETSisplatin ile Oluşturulan Testis Hasarına Karşı Resveratrolün Olası Koruyucu Rolünün Morfolojik ve Biyokimyasal Olarak DeğerlendirilmesiNagehan Özyılmaz Yay, Prof. Dr. Feriha ErcanHistoloji ve Embriyoloji Anabilim DalıAmaç: Bu çalışmada sisplatinin (SİS) sıçan testisi üzerine olan toksik etkilerine karşı resveratrolün (RES) koruyucu rolünün histolojik, histokimyasal, ultrastrüktürel ve biyokimyasal yöntemlerle gösterilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada Sprague-Dawley ırkı sıçanlar kullanılmış ve 1) Kontrol, 2) RES, 3) SİS ve 4) SİS+RES olmak üzere 4 deney grubu (n=7) oluşturulmuştur. SİS gruplarına tek doz 7 mg/kg i.p. sisplatin uygulanmıştır, sonrasında 5 gün boyunca SF ya da 10 mg/kg RES oral olarak uygulanmıştır. Kontrol gruplarına sadece SF ya da RES uygulanmıştır. Tüm deney gruplarındaki sıçanlar deneyin 5. gününde eter anestezisi altında dekapite edilmiş ve testisleri alınmıştır. Rutin histolojik preparasyondan sonra seminifer tübüllerin çapı ve alanı ölçülmüştür. Proliferatif ve apoptotik hücreler kantitatif olarak değerlendirilmiştir. İnce yapısal değişiklikleri göstermek için geçirimli elektron mikroskopi tekniği uygulanmıştır. Dokuda malondialdehit (MDA) ve glutatyon (GSH) düzeylerine ve miyeloperoksidaz (MPO) aktivitesine bakılmıştır. Bulgular ve Sonuçlar: Seminifer tübül çapı ve alanının SİS grubunda düştüğü ve SİS+RES grubunda ise arttığı gözlenmiştir. SİS grubunda apoptotik indeksin anlamlı arttığı ve SİS+RES grubunda azaldığı görülmüştür. SİS grubunda proliferatif indeks anlamlı şekilde azalmışken, SİS+RES grubunda arttığı görülmüştür. Elektron mikroskopik incelemelerde, SİS grubunda Sertoli hücrelerinin ve spermatogenik seriye ait hücrelerin sitoplazmalarında çok sayıda ve büyük vakuoller ve hücreler arası alanlarda açılmalar gözlenmekte iken SİS+RES grubunda hücreler arasındaki açılmaların azaldığı ve hücre içinde az sayıda küçük vakuollerin olduğu görülmüştür. SİS grubunda MDA düzeyi ve MPO aktivitesi anlamlı şekilde artarken, GSH düzeyi anlamlı şekilde düşmüştür. SİS+RES grubunda MDA düzeyi ve MPO aktivitesi azalmışken, GSH düzeyi ise artmıştır. Sonuç olarak sisplatinin oksidatif stres oluşturarak testis dokusunda hasar meydana getirdiği, seminifer tübüllerde spermatogenik hücre serilerinde azalmaya yol açtığı, spermatogenik hücrelerde apoptozu arttırdığı, resveratrolün olası antioksidan etkileri ile oluşan hasarı önlediği gözlenmiştir.Anahtar Sözcükler: Sisplatin, Resveratrol, Testis, Apoptoz, Hücre proliferasyonu SUMMARYMorphological and Biochemical Evaluation of Protective Effects of Resveratrol on Cisplatin-Induced Testis DamageNagehan Özyılmaz Yay, Prof. Dr. Feriha ErcanDepartment of Histology and Embryology Aim: In this study, we aimed to investigate the possible protective role of resveratrol (RES) on cisplatin (CIS)-induced testicular toxicity in rats using histological, histochemical, ultrastructural and biochemical methods. Materials and Method: Sprague-Dawley rats (n= 7) were divided into four groups. 1) Control, 2) RES, 3) CIS, 4) CIS+RES. We applied either saline or 10 mg/kg RES orally for 5 days after a single dose of 7 mg/kg i.p. cisplatin to the CIS groups. Only saline or RES was applied to the control groups. After 5 days, rats were decapitated under ether anesthesia and testis tissues were removed. After routine histological preparation, the diameter and area of seminiferous tubules were measured. Proliferative and apoptotic cells were evaluated quantitatively. Ultrastructural alterations were evaluated by using electron microscopical technics. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity were measured in the tissues. Results: The area and diameter of the seminiferous tubules were significantly decreased in CIS group and increased in CIS+RES group. Apoptotic index was increased in CIS group and decreased in CIS+RES group. Proliferative index was decreased in CIS group and increased in CIS+RES group. Numerous large vacuoles in the cytoplasm of spermatogonial and Sertoli cells and dilatation of intercellular tight junctions were observed in CIS group. A decreased number of small vacuoles in the cell cytoplasm was observed and dilatation of intercellular tight juctions was decreased in CIS+RES group. While MDA level and MPO activity were significantly increased, GSH level was significantly decreased in CIS group. All biochemical parameters were found to be ameliorated in CIS+RES group. In conclusion, cisplatin causes testis damage by decreasing spermatogenic cell line and increasing apoptosis, via the formation of oxidative stress, and resveratrol pevents testis damage by its possible antioxidant effects.Key Words: Cisplatin, Resveratrol, Testis, Apoptosis, Cell Proliferation

Genler, aynı sınıftan (protein veya RNA) işlevsel ürünler şifreleyen, kalıtımın temel birimi olarak tanımlanan bölgelerdir. Bunlar aynı genom dizisinde tanımlanabilirler. Stromal Antijen 1 (STAG 1), kromozom çiftlerinin mitoz bölünmenin anafaz safasına kadar iğ aygıtına tutunmasını sağlayan kohesinin, altıbirimi olan SCC3'ü (sister chromatid cohesion) kodlar. Buna ek olarak, p53 bağımlı genler tanımlandığında STAG 1'in apoptozis ilişkili tümör supressör bir görevinin olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Geçmişte yapılan çalışmaların birinde de telomer yapısının korunmasında rolü olan telomer bağlayıcı protein TRF2'nin inaktive olduğunda STAG 1 geni silinmiş olan genlerden birisi olmuştur. Bundan dolayı da kromozom aberasyonlarına neden olmuş ve potansiyel tümör supressör bir gen görevi ile dikkat çekmiştir.Bu çalışmada, STAG 1 geninin hüce proliferasyonu, transformasyonu ve DNA hasar yanıtındaki fonksiyonu belirlenmek istendi. Öncelikle STAG 1'in hücrelerdeki salınımı incelendi. Sonra genin baskılanması ve aşırı ifadesi olduğu durumlarda hücrelerdeki değimlerin incelemek için shRNA ve cDNA oligonükleotidleri kullanıldı. Bundan sonra baskılama ve aşırı ifade deneyleri gerçekleştirildi. Ayrıca STAG 1 salımını incelemek için sağlıklı insanlar ve hepatoselüler karsinoma (HCC) hastalarından alımış karaciğer doku örnekleri üzerinde antikor boyama tekniği kullanıldı. Baskılama ve aşırı ifade deneyleri sonucunda başarılı klonlar gözlendi ve yapılan protein analizi deneyi ile doğrulandı. Antikor boyama yapılan dokularda bazı HCC'li ve sağlıklı dokularda STAG 1 ifadesi gözlenmesine rağmen bazılarında gözlenemedi. Kesin bir sonuca ulaşılabilmek için örnek sayısının artırılmasına karar verildi.STAG 1 geninin hücre proliferasyonu, transformasyon ve DNA hasar yanıtındaki fonksiyonunun araştırılması, tümör baskılayıcı özelliğinden dolayı özellikle kanser hastalarına uygulanacak olan gen tedavilerinde büyük katkı sağlayacaktır.Anahtar sözcükler: STAG 1, tümör baskılayıcı genler, hücre proliferasyonu Genes which can encode same class of funtional products ( proteins, RNA), are the regions called basic units of hereditary. They can be indentified in same genom sequence. STAG 1 is a protein coding gene, encodes SCC3, multi subunit complex of cohesin which ensures chromosome couples to be holded together on spindle apparatus until the begining of anaphase during mitosis. Addition to this, when p53 dependent genes are identified, it is understood that STAG 1 is a gene, has apoptosis related tümör suppressör role. In one of the previous studies, when telomer binding protein TRF2, has a role in protection of telomere structure, is inactivated, STAG 1 gene is one of the genes which was deleted. Therefore, it caused chromosomal abberations and drew attention with it?s potential tumor supressor activity.In this study, it was demanded to determine functions of STAG 1 in cell proliferation, transformation and DNA damage responses. First expression of STAG 1 wass analysed. Than for analysing changes in cells, shRNA and cDNA oligınucleotides were used. After that they were knocked down and overexpressed.Besides, antibody staining technic was used on tissue samples which were taken from healthy people and HCC patients to analyse STAG 1 expression. As a result of knock down and overexpression experiments, successful clones are observed and by protein analysis it was confirmed. Although on some of tissues , applied antibody staining, STAG 1 expression was onserved, on some of them, expression was not observed. For significant result, it is determied to increase sample numbers.Because of it?s tumor supressor feature, investigation of STAG 1 gene in cell proliferation, transformation and DNA damage responses will supplement to gene terapies which will be applied especially on cancer patients.Key Words: STAG 1, Tumor suppressor genes, cell proliferation 82

Amaç: Güncel çalışmada, kedilerin fibrosarkomlarında hücre proliferasyon indeksi, p53 tümor baskılayıcı gen durumu, tümor metastazı, invazyon kapasitesi ile hücresel orjinin ortaya konulması amacıyla Prolifere olan hücre nükleus antijeni (PCNA), Matriks Metalloproteinaz-9 (MMP-9), Vimentin, Alfa-Düz Kas Aktini (α-SMA), S-100, Desmin ve Pan- Sitokeratin (Pan-SK) gibi kanser markerları ve intermedier filamentlerin ekspresyonlarının immunohistokimyasal olarak değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada, Patoloji Anabilim Dalı’na rutin histopatolojik inceleme amacıyla getirilen 7 adet kediden alınan tümoral doku örnekleri kullanılmıştır. Histopatolojik değişikliklerin değerlendirilebilmesi amacıyla kesitlere Hematoksilen & Eozin boyaması uygulandı. İmmunohistokimyasal boyamalarda streptavidin-biotin peroksidaz kompleksi yöntemi kullanıldı. Bulgular: 7 spontane kutanöz fibrosarkom vakasının 5’i evre I, 1’i evre II ve 1’i ise evre III olarak saptandı. Tümöral dokulardaki belirgin kollajen bantlarının varlığı Masson Trikrom boyama ile ortaya konuldu. Vimentin ve α-SMA boyanmaları yönünden tüm vakalar pozitifti. Pan SK, S-100 ve Desmin boyanmaları yönünden tümör hücreleri negatif reaksiyon verdi. Tüm vakalar PCNA yönünden pozitifti. Sadece 2 vaka p53 pozitif boyanma gösterdi. Bu 2 vaka, ileri evrelerdi. Sadece bir fibrosarkom vakasında (Evre III) tümör tipi dev hücrelerinde intrasitoplazmik MMP-9 ekspresyonları tespit edildi. Öneri: Sonuç olarak, çalışmada kullanılan tümör örneklem sayısı az olsa da, PCNA, p53 ve MMP-9’un kedilerin spontane fibrosarkomlarında hücre proliferasyonunun belirlenmesi, malignitenin derecelendirilmesi, tümör agresifliği ve davranışı ile prognozun saptanmasında oldukça kullanışlı markerlar olduğunu ortaya koymuştur., Aim: The present study was aimed at the immunohistochemical evaluation of the expression of cancer indicators; including the Proliferating Cell Nucleus Antigen (PCNA), Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), vimentin, alphasmooth muscle actin (α-SMA), S-100, desmin and pan-Cytokeratin (PanCK), as well as intermediary filaments, with a view to demonstrate the cell proliferation index, p53 tumour-suppressor gene status, tumour metastasis, invasion capacity and cellular origin of feline fibrosarcomas. Materials and Methods: The study material comprised of tumoral tissue samples from 7 cats, which were referred to the Pathology Department for routine histopathological examination. In order to evaluate the histopathological changes, the sections were stained with Haematoxylin and Eosin. Streptavidin-biotin peroxidase complex method was used for immunohistochemical staining. Results: Out of the seven spontaneous cutaneous fibrosarcoma cases, five were in stage I, one was in stage II, and one was in stage III. The presence of conspicuous collagen bands in the tumoral tissues was demonstrated by Masson’s trichrome (MT) staining. All cases stained positively for vimentin and α-SMA. The tumoral cells reacted negatively for pan-CK, S-100 and desmin. All cases were immunopositive for PCNA. Two cases stained positively for p53. These two cases were advanced stage. Only a single case of fibrosarcoma (stage III) presented with intracytoplasmic MMP-9 expression in neoplastic giant cells. Conclusion: Despite only very few tumour samples having been examined in the present study, it was concluded that PCNA, p53 and MMP-9 served as highly useful indicators for determining cell proliferation, grading malignancy, detecting tumour aggressiveness and behaviour, as well as predicting prognosis in spontaneous feline fibrosarcomas.
