Review Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 16Advancing Titanium-Based Surfaces Via Micro-Arc Oxidation With Solid Substance Incorporation: a Systematic Review(Elsevier, 2024) Ogur, Ezgi; Alves, Alexandra C.; Toptan, FatihDespite possessing numerous superior properties, titanium, and its alloys exhibit inadequacies in terms of tribocorrosion, bioactivity, and antimicrobial characteristics. In recent years, there has been a rapid increase in research focusing on micro-arc oxidation (MAO) surface treatments to enhance these properties. In the traditional MAO approach, researchers commonly investigate the introduction of additional functionalities to the surface through ion doping. However, over the past decade, studies have indicated that the inclusion of solid substances, either as substitutes for or in conjunction with ion doping, can provide further advantages in terms of multifunctionality. Therefore, this review comprehensively and systematically examines the characteristics of solid substances used during MAO, their incorporation mechanisms, and their influence on resulting biological and degradation behaviors, as well as properties such as photocatalytic activity, magnetic features, hightemperature oxidation resistance, electrical insulation, and thermal shock resistance. This review showed that the integration of solid substances during MAO represents a promising avenue for achieving multifunctional surface enhancements in titanium and its alloys. This review highlights the diverse range of properties and behaviors influenced by these solid substances, offering insights for future research and applications in the field of surface engineering and biomaterials science.Article Citation - WoS: 11Fabrication of Helix Aspersa Extract Loaded Gradient Scaffold With an Integrated Architecture for Osteochondral Tissue Regeneration: Morphology, Structure, and in Vitro Bioactivity [2](American Chemical Society, 2023) Tamburacı, Sedef; Perpelek, Merve; Aydemir, Selma; Baykara, Başak; Havıtçıoğlu, Hasan; Tıhmınlıoğlu, FundaRegeneration of osteochondral tissue with its layered complex structure and limited self-repair capacity has come into prominence as an application area for biomaterial design. Thus, literature studies have aimed to design multilayered scaffolds using natural polymers to mimic its unique structure. In this study, fabricated scaffolds are composed of transition layers both chemically and morphologically to mimic the gradient structure of osteochondral tissue. The aim of this study is to produce gradient chitosan (CHI) scaffolds with bioactive snail (Helix aspersa) mucus (M) and slime (S) extract and investigate the structures regarding their physicochemical, mechanical, and morphological characteristics as well as in vitro cytocompatibility and bioactivity. Gradient scaffolds (CHI-M and CHI-S) were fabricated via a layer-by-layer freezing and lyophilization technique. Highly porous and continuous 3D structures were obtained and observed with SEM analysis. In addition, scaffolds were physically characterized with water uptake test, micro-CT, mechanical analysis (compression tests), and XRD analysis. In vitro bioactivity of scaffolds was investigated by co-culturing Saos-2 and SW1353 cells on each compartment of gradient scaffolds. Osteogenic activity of Saos-2 cells on extract loaded gradient scaffolds was investigated in terms of ALP secretion, osteocalcin (OC) production, and biomineralization. Chondrogenic bioactivity of SW1353 cells was investigated regarding COMP and GAG production and observed with Alcian Blue staining. Both mucus and slime incorporation in the chitosan matrix increased the osteogenic differentiation of Saos-2 and SW1353 cells in comparison to the pristine matrix. In addition, histological and immunohistological staining was performed to investigate ECM formation on gradient scaffolds. Both characterization and in vitro bioactivity results indicated that CHI-M and CHI-S scaffolds show potential for osteochondral tissue regeneration, mimicking the structure as well as enhancing physical characteristics and bioactivity. © 2023 The Authors.

Phytochemical studies indicate that Boraginaceae plants mainly comprise naphthoquinones with a wide range of biological activities including anticancer, antiinflammatory, wound healing, and antioxidant effects. However, few taxa of the genus Onosma have been investigated in detail for their bioactivities. Considering the high rate of endemism and an inadequate number of bioactivity screening studies in literature, we aimed to evaluate the cytotoxic effects and topoisomerase inhibitory activities of some Onosma species growing in southwestern Turkey. Here, we describe a comprehensive cytotoxic activity screening study on petroleum ether, dichloromethane, and methanol extracts of the roots of 20 identified and one unidentified Onosma taxa. The MTT cell viability assay has been performed to investigate the cytotoxicity of the extracts against seven cancer cell lines (MCF-7, HeLa > Hep G2, A549, Capan-1, HCC-1937, and DU-145) and a noncancerous cell line (MRC-5), while doxorubicin was served as a positive standard. The petroleum ether extracts of O. aksoyii Aytac&Turkmen, O. isaurica Boiss. and Heldr., O. taurica Pallas ex Willd. var. taurica and O. alborosea Fisch. & C.A. Mey subsp. alborosea var. alborosea were determined as the most active ones based on their IC50 values. DNA topoisomerase Ila inhibition assay was conducted on the petroleum ether and dichloromethane extracts of these four active species, and almost all tested extracts demonstrated strong inhibition on the enzyme at a concentration of 0.1 mg/mL. Our cytotoxicity screening results were consistent with the findings of the topoisomerase Ila inhibition test. This study advocates the significant role of Onosma species in the field of anticancer drug discovery.
