3-Propionyl-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid ethyl esters: A family of antiproliferative thiazolidines
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015)Cancer results from unregulated cell growth. Reactivating the process of the programmed cell death, i.e. apoptosis, is a classical anticancer therapeutic strategy. The apoptosis-inducing property of the (2RS,4R)-2-phenyl ... -
4,5-dianilinophtalimide protects neuroendocrine cells against serum deprivation-induced stress and apoptosis
(2013)OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to reveal the effects of 4,5-dianilinophthalimide (DAPH), which inhibits amyloid β fibrillization, against serum deprivation (SD)-induced apoptosis and the possible mechanisms in ... -
Anti-cancer and anti-hepatitis C virus NS5B polymerase activity of etodolac 1,2,4-triazoles
(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2015)Arachidonic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid liberated from phospholipids of cell membranes. NSAIDs are known as targets of cyclooxygenase enzyme (COX-1, COX-2 and COX-3) in arachidonic acid metabolism. This mechanism of ... -
Antiangiogenic response after 70% hepatectomy and its relationship with hepatic regeneration and angiogenesis in rats
(2010)Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the antiangiogenic response and its relation to regeneration and angiogenesis after 70% hepatectomy in a rat model. Methods: Sixty-four Wistar albino rats were included in ... -
Benzothiazole derivatives as human DNA topoisomerase IIα inhibitors
(2013)Benzothiazole derivatives resembling the structure of DNA purine bases were tested to determine their topoisomerase inhibition activities. Based on DNA topoisomerase I and II relaxation assay results, all 12 derivatives ... -
Coiled-Coil Domain Containing Protein 124 Is a Novel Centrosome and Midbody Protein That Interacts with the Ras-Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factor 1B and Is Involved in Cytokinesis
(2013)Cytokinetic abscission is the cellular process leading to physical separation of two postmitotic sister cells by severing the intercellular bridge. The most noticeable structural component of the intercellular bridge is a ... -
Cyanide sensing via metal ion removal from a fluorogenic BODIPY complex
(Elsevier, 2009)We report a highly selective and sensitive reversible cyanide sensor operating in the ‘turn-off-on’ mode via decomplexation of Cu(II) ions from a brightly fluorescent boradiazaindacene derivative. The sensor is reversible ... -
Cytotoxic activities of some benzothiazole-piperazine derivatives
(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2015)Synthesis, characterization and cytotoxic activities of ten benzothiazole-piperazine derivatives were reported. In vitro cytotoxic activities of compounds were screened against hepatocellular (HUH-7), breast (MCF-7) and ... -
GOPred: GO molecular function prediction by combined classifiers
(2010)Functional protein annotation is an important matter for in vivo and in silico biology. Several computational methods have been proposed that make use of a wide range of features such as motifs, domains, homology, structure ... -
Identification of endogenous reference genes for qRT-PCR analysis in normal matched breast tumor tissues
(Cognizant Communication Corporation, 2009)Quantitative gene expression measurements from tumor tissue are frequently compared with matched normal and/or adjacent tumor tissue expression for diagnostic marker gene selection as well as assessment of the degree of ... -
In vitro biocompatibility of plasma-aided surface-modified 316L stainless steel for intracoronary stents
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2010)316L-type stainless steel is a raw material mostly used for manufacturing metallic coronary stents. The purpose of this study was to examine the chemical, wettability, cytotoxic and haemocompatibility properties of 316L ... -
Inflammasome induction and immunostimulatory effects of CpG-ODN loaded liposomes containing DC-cholesterol
(Turkish Society of Immunology, 2013)Objectives: This study aims to investigate the effects of cholesterol content and cationic property of liposomes on immune response. Materials and methods: Liposomes containing high amounts of 3β-[N-(N',N'-dimethylaminoe ... -
MST1 is a multifunctional caspase-independent inhibitor of androgenic signaling
(2011)The MST1 serine - threonine kinase, a component of the RASSF1-LATS tumor suppressor network, is involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis and has been implicated in cancer. However, the physiologic role of MST1 in ... -
Mutation in TOR1AIP1 encoding LAP1B in a form of muscular dystrophy: A novel gene related to nuclear envelopathies
(Elsevier Ltd, 2014)We performed genome-wide homozygosity mapping and mapped a novel myopathic phenotype to chromosomal region 1q25 in a consanguineous family with three affected individuals manifesting proximal and distal weakness and atrophy, ... -
De novo insertions and deletions of predominantly paternal origin are associated with autism spectrum disorder
(Elsevier, 2014)Whole-exome sequencing (WES) studies have demonstrated the contribution of de novo loss-of-function single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, challenges in the reliable detection of de ... -
PATZ1 is a DNA damage-responsive transcription factor that inhibits p53 function
(American Society for Microbiology, 2015)Insults to cellular health cause p53 protein accumulation, and loss of p53 function leads to tumorigenesis. Thus, p53 has to be tightly controlled. Here we report that the BTB/POZ domain transcription factor PATZ1 (MAZR), ... -
PTPRD is homozygously deleted and epigenetically downregulated in human hepatocellular carcinomas
(Mary Ann Liebert Inc., 2015)PTPRD (protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type, D) is a tumor suppressor gene, frequently inactivated through deletions or epigenetic mechanisms in several cancers with importance for global health. In this study, we ... -
A ranking-based meta-analysis reveals let-7 family as a meta-signature for grade classification in breast cancer
