Development and validation of methods for the diagnosis of lung cancer via serological biomarkers
(Bilkent University, 2019-02)Over 10% of all new cancer cases are lung cancer. Moreover, estimates till 2030 indicate that already increasing lung cancer incidences will keep increasing, especially in developing countries like Turkey. Lung cancer, the ... -
Development of methods for identification and characterization of autologous antibody responses in Small Cell Lung Cancer and Behcet’s Disease
(Bilkent University, 2016-08)Autologous antibodies are known to be elicited in Behçet’s Disease (BD) and Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC). SCLC consists 15-20% of all lung cancer cases. It is follows a most aggressive course and generally patients are ... -
Expression and purification of the hepatitis C virus core protein in Ecoli and testing of human sera with this core antigen
(Bilkent University, 1998)The hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is an important cause of morbidity and mortality world wide. Infection with HCV becomes chronic in more than 80% of the cases and it accounts for 20%of all cases of acute hepatitis. ... -
A highly sensitive and specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of antibodies to hepatitis C virus
(2000)In this study, a 178 amino acids long portion of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) core gene was cloned, sequenced, expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified. The resulting antigen (C178) was tested with human sera enzyme-linked ... -
Identification and utilization of autologous anti-tumor antibodies for the diagnosis and prognosis of cancer
(Bilkent University, 2015-12)Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer related death worldwide. Current diagnostic methods have limited power and unable to extend patient life significantly. SCLC; the most aggressive subtype of lung cancer is an ... -
Rapid and sensitive colorimetric ELISA using silver nanoparticles, microwaves and split ring resonator structures
(2010)We report a new approach to colorimetric Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) that reduces the total assay time to < 2 min and the lower-detection-limit by 100-fold based on absorbance readout. The new approach ...
