Description
AMAÇ 3: SAĞLIKLI BİREYLER Çocuk ölüm oranlarının azaltılması, anne sağlığının iyileştirilmesi, HIV/AIDS, sıtma ve diğer hastalıklar ile mücadelede büyük aşama kaydetmiş durumdayız. 1990 yılından bu yana, önlenebilir çocuk ölümlerinde dünya genelinde %50’yi aşan azalma olmuştur. Anne ölümleri de dünya genelinde %45 azalmıştır. 2000 ile 2013 arasında HIV/AIDS bulaşma oranı %30 azalmış, 6,2 milyonu aşkın insan sıtmadan kurtarılmıştır. Bu ölümler; önleme ve tedavi, eğitim, aşı kampanyaları, cinsel ve üreme sağlığı hizmetleri vasıtasıyla önlenebilir. Sürdürülebilir Kalkınma Amaçları; AIDS, verem, sıtma ve diğer bulaşıcı hastalık salgınlarını 2030 yılına kadar ortadan kaldırmaya yönelik cesur bir taahhüttür. Amaç, herkesin genel sağlık hizmeti, güvenli ve erişilebilir ilaç ve aşıya kavuşmasını sağlamaktır. Aşı araştırma ve geliştirmelerinin desteklenmesi, bu sürecin vazgeçilmez bir parçasıdır.

    BACKGROUND: Patients with brain metastasis from melanoma have a dismal prognosis with poor survival time. Gamma Knife (GK) is an effective treatment to control brain metastasis from melanoma. Thymoquinone (TQ) has emerged as a potential therapeutic option due to its antiproliferative effects on various cancers. The purpose of the study was to assess the effect of GK on B16-F10 melanoma cells in vitro and intracerebral melanoma in vivo, and its synergistic effect in combination with TQ.

    Intracellular pH-mediated induction of apoptosis in HeLa cells by a sulfonamide carbonic anhydrase inhibitor
    (2022-03-15T00:00:00Z) Koyuncu, Ismail; Temiz, Ebru; Durgun, Mustafa; KOÇYİĞİT, ABDÜRRAHİM; Yuksekdag, Ozgur; Supuran, Claudiu T.; KOÇYİĞİT, ABDÜRRAHİM
    © 2021Carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) is a hypoxia-associated transmembrane protein that is critical in the survival of cells. Because CAIX has a key role in pH regulation, its therapeutic effects have been heavily studied by different research laboratories. This study aims to investigate how a synthetic CAIX inhibitor triggers apoptosis in a cancer cell line, HeLa. In this regard, we investigated the effects of the compound I, synthesized as a CAIX inhibitor, on the survival of cancer cells. The compound I inhibited the proliferation of the CAIX+ HeLa cells, kept the cells in G0/G1 phase (74.7%) and altered the cells morphologies (AO/EtBr staining) and the nuclear structure (γ-H2AX staining). CAIX inhibition triggered apoptosis in HeLa cells with a rate of 47.4%. According to the expression of mediator genes (CASP-3, -8, -9, BAX, BCL-2, BECLIN, LC3), the both death pathways were activated in HeLa cells with the inhibition of CAIX with the compound I. The compound I was also determined to affect the genes and proteins that have a critical role in the regulation of apoptotic pathways (pro casp-3, cleaved casp-3, -8, -9, cleaved PARP and CAIX). Furthermore, CAIX inhibition caused changes in pH balance, disruption in organelle integrity of mitochondria, and increase intracellular reactive oxygen level of HeLa cells. Taken together, our findings suggest that CAIX inhibition has a potential in cancer treatment, and the compound I, a CAIX inhibitor, could be a promising therapeutic strategy in the treatment of aggressive tumours.

    Mononuclear leukocyte DNA damage and oxidative stress: The association with smoking of hand-rolled and filter-cigarettes
    (2011-04-03T00:00:00Z) Kocyigit, ABDÜRRAHİM; Selek, ŞAHBETTİN; Celik, Hakim; Dikilitas, Murat; KOÇYİĞİT, ABDÜRRAHİM; SELEK, ŞAHABETTİN
    Cigarette smoking is a major cause of human cancer at various sites, although its carcinogenic mechanisms still remain unestablished. Based on the use of a filter, cigarette smoke can be divided into a gas phase and a tar phase. Both contain different concentrations of oxidants, free radicals and tobacco-specific carcinogens. To explore the effects of both filtered and non-filtered cigarette smoke on DNA damage and oxidative status, we measured the level of mononuclear leukocyte DNA damage by use of the single-cell gel electrophoresis (Comet) assay. We also determined malondialdehyde (MDA), protein carbonyl content (PC) and total antioxidative capacity (TAC) levels in blood plasma of smokers of manufactured filter-cigarettes and of hand-rolled cigarettes. Cotinine levels were also measured in plasma to estimate the degree of smoking. Mononuclear leukocyte DNA damage, plasma MDA, plasma PC and plasma cotinine levels were found significantly higher, while plasma TAC levels were found significantly lower in smokers of filter-cigarettes and smokers of hand-rolled cigarettes, compared with control subjects. TAC levels in hand-rolled and manufactured filter-cigarette smokers were not significantly different from each other. However, the levels of DNA damage. plasma MDA, plasma cotinine, and plasma protein oxidation were significantly higher in hand-rolled cigarette smokers than in filter-cigarette smokers. There was a significant positive correlation between MDA and DNA damage in both hand-rolled cigarette smokers and manufactured filter-cigarette smokers. This study indicates that smoking of hand-rolled cigarettes has stronger genotoxic and oxidative effects on the metabolism than smoking of manufactured filter-cigarettes. We propose that these harmful effects could be attributed to the higher level of oxidants. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Lecithin-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonate based crosslinked phospholipid nanoparticles as drug carrier
    (2016-11-10) Mutlu, Esra Cansever; Bostan, Muge Sennaroglu; Bahadori, FATEMEH; Kocyigit, ABDÜRRAHİM; Oner, Ebru Toksoy; EROĞLU, MEHMET SAYIP; BAHADORİ, FATEMEH; KOÇYİĞİT, ABDÜRRAHİM
    In this study, a novel paclitaxel (PTX) loaded and a crosslinked solid phospholipid nanoparticles (SLN-PTX) with negative surface charge was prepared by UV polymerization for drug delivery. Capping of positive charge of zwitterionic lecithin with negative charge of sodium 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonate (AMPS-Na) through cation exchange interaction produced a lecithin-AMPS (L-AMPS) complex. The amphiphilic and negative charged lipid complex was emulsified in the presence of emulsifier, paclitaxel, initiator, and methacrylated poly epsilon-caprolacton-diol (PCL-MAC) as a spacer. The colloidal system was subjected to UV-irradiation to obtain crosslinked nanoparticles. Completion of the UV-polymerization was monitored with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), which indicated the disappearance of exothermic peaks of vinyl groups. The nanoparticle system, having an average size of 200 nm, exhibited high drug encapsulation (96%) with negatively charged surface (zeta potential had an average of -70 mV). PTX release profiles of the crosslinked and uncrosslinked SLN-PTXs were studied and their pharmacological properties were compared. The crosslinked nanoparticles exhibited more controlled release behavior with longer release time compared to the uncrosslinked ones. In vitro cytotoxicity test was conducted on MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma cell line, which indicated that the crosslinked SLN-PTXs have a potential therapeutic effect for breast cancer treatments.
