Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 23Bodipy-Vinyl Dibromides as Triplet Sensitisers for Photodynamic Therapy and Triplet-Triplet Annihilation Upconversion(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021) Dartar, Suay; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; Karakuş, Erman; Hou, Yuqi; Zhao, Jianzhang; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyWe devised a new generation of halogen-based triplet sensitisers comprising geminal dibromides at the vinyl backbone of a BODIPY fluorophore. Incorporating geminal dibromides into the pi-conjugation of BODIPY enhanced intersystem crossing due to the heavy atom effect, which in turn improved the extent of excited triplet states.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 22Fluorescein Propiolate: a Propiolate- Decorated Fluorescent Probe With Remarkable Selectivity Towards Cysteine(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019) Karakuş, Erman; Sayar, Melike; Kaya, Beraat Umur; Kaya, Beraat Umur; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; Dartar, Suay; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04. Faculty of ScienceA fluorescent probe decorated with an alkynyl ester unit (e.g. propiolate) displayed a selective turn-on type fluorescent response towards cysteine. Following a sequential addition-cyclisation pathway mediated by the addition of cysteine, the pre-fluorescent dye rapidly transformed into a new structure and induced a fluorescent response clearly observable with the naked eye.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 23A Guanidinium Modified Rhodamine-Based Fluorescent Probe for in Vitro/Vivo Imaging of Gold Ions(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015) Karakuş, Erman; Çakan Akdoğan, Gülçin; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; 04.04.

Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyUnderstanding intermolecular interactions between drugs and proteins is very important in drug delivery studies. Here, we studied different binding interactions between salicylic acid and bovine serum albumin (BSA) using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. Salicylic acid was labeled with a stable radical (spin label) in order to monitor its mobilized (free) or immobilized (bound to BSA) states. In addition to spin labeled salicylic acid (SL-salicylic acid), its derivatives including SL-benzoic acid, SL-phenol, SL-benzene, SL-cyclohexane and SL-hexane were synthesized to reveal the effects of various drug binding interactions. EPR results of these SL-molecules showed that hydrophobic interaction is the main driving force. Whereas each of the two functional groups (-COOH and -OH) on the benzene ring has a minute but detectable effect on the drug-protein complex formation. In order to investigate the effect of electrostatic interaction on drug binding, cationic BSA (cBSA) was synthesized, altering the negative net charge of BSA to positive. The salicylic acid loading capacity of cBSA is significantly higher compared to that of BSA, indicating the importance of electrostatic interaction in drug binding. Moreover, the competitive binding properties of salicylic acid, ibuprofen and aspirin to BSA were studied. The combined EPR results of SL-salicylic acid/ibuprofen and SL-ibuprofen/salicylic acid showed that ibuprofen is able to replace up to ∼83% of bound SL-salicylic acid, and salicylic acid can replace only ∼14% of the bound SL-ibuprofen. This indicates that ∼97% of all salicylic acid and ibuprofen binding sites are shared. On the other hand, aspirin replaces only ∼23% of bound SL-salicylic acid, and salicylic acid replaces ∼50% of bound SL-aspirin, indicating that ∼73% of all salicylic acid and aspirin binding sites are shared. These results show that EPR spectroscopy in combination with the spin labeling technique is a very powerful method to investigate drug binding dynamics in detail.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5A Rare ?-Pyranopyrazole Skeleton: Design, One-Pot Synthesis and Computational Study(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016) Üçüncü, Muhammed; Cantürk, Ceren; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; Zeybek, Hüseyin; Bozkaya, Uğur; Soydaş, Emine; Şahin, Ertan; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyDrawing upon a consecutive amide coupling and intramolecular cyclisation pathway, a one-pot, straightforward synthetic route has been developed for a range of pyrazole fused γ-pyrone derivatives. The reaction mechanism proposed for the chemoselective formation of γ-pyranopyrazole is furthermore fully supported by experimental and computational studies. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2016.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 25A Bodipy/Pyridine Conjugate for Reversible Fluorescence Detection of Gold(iii) Ions(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015) Üçüncü, Muhammed; Karakuş, Erman; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyWe designed a "turn-on" type fluorescent probe based on a BODIPY-pyridine conjugate which exhibits high selectivity towards Au(iii) ions and, also responds to changes in the pH within the acidic pH range. The probe offers features such as a rapid response time, a low detection limit, and high sensitivity and selectivity. The detection of Au(iii) is recognized by a distinct change in the emission intensity which relies on a reversible "ligand to ion" binding mechanism. We also document the utility of the probe for the quantification of gold ion residues in synthetic end products prepared via gold catalysis. © 2015 The Royal Society of Chemistry and the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique.Article Citation - WoS: 43Citation - Scopus: 43A Bodipy-Based Fluorescent Probe for the Differential Recognition of Hg(ii) and Au(iii) Ions(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015) Cantürk, Ceren; Üçüncü, Muhammed; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; 04.04.

Remzi; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; 04.04. Department of Photonics; 03.01. Department of Bioengineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyA spermine-like polymer was synthesized via reversible addition- fragmentation chain transfer polymerization as a potential endosomal escaping agent. A new methacrylate monomer, 2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)(2-((tert- butoxycarbonyl)amino)ethyl)amino)ethylmethacrylate (BocAEAEMA), was prepared and then polymerized via RAFT polymerization at constant monomer or initiator concentration at varying [M]/[R]/[I] ratios. In all polymerizations, ln[M] 0/[M] increased linearly with time. The linear increase in M n with monomer conversion was also observed. P(BocAEAEMA)s with controlled molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions were obtained. The in vitro cytotoxicity and proton sponge capacity of deprotected polymers P(AEAEMA) were investigated in comparison with a widely used endosomal-disruptive polymer, PEI. P(AEAEMA)s were found to possess proton sponge capacity comparable with PEI. More importantly, P(AEAEMA)s were not toxic on NIH 3T3 cells at concentrations where PEI (25 kDa) was highly toxic (0.4 μM and above). P(AEAEMA) was able to fully condense a DNA fragment at nitrogen/phosphate (N/P) ratios of 10 and above, as evidenced by gel electrophoresis. P(BocAEAEMA) was then chain-extended with a model sugar monomer, mannose-acrylate (ManAc), to yield P(AEAEMA)-b-P(ManAc) block copolymers, to potentially provide cell-recognition ability to the polyplex particles. Although the presence of the P(ManAc) block partially inhibited the interaction of P(AEAEMA) with DNA, P(AEAEMA)13-b-P(ManAc)7 was able to form polyplexes with DNA at N/P ratios ranging between 20/1 and 2/1. Dynamic light scattering measurements showed that while P(AEAEMA) (M n = 5.5 kDa) and DNA formed polyplex particles having a hydrodynamic diameter (Dh) of 125 ± 51 nm, P(AEAEMA)13-b- P(ManAc)7 and DNA formed particles with a smaller Dh of 38 ± 10 nm.
