Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Mapk Pathway and Nis in B-Cpap Human Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Cells Treated With Resveratrol(Elsevier Gmbh, 2024) Kocabas, Gokcen Unal; Blatti, Asli Kisim; Berdeli, Afig; Ozgen, Ahmet Gokhan; Yurekli, Banu SarerBackground: Resveratrol, a herbal phytoalexin, is known to have anti-tumor effects in several tumors including thyroid cancer cells. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of resveratrol on the expression of BRAF, ERK and NIS mRNA levels and protein expression in B-CPAP human thyroid papillary cancer cell line. Methods: B-CPAP cells were treated with resveratrol at concentrations of 10-100 mu M for 24-48-72 h. Cell viability was assessed by XTT Cell Proliferation Assay. BRAF, ERK and NIS mRNA levels were evaluated by rtPCR method. Protein expressions were evaluated by Western Blot method. Results: Resveratrol was found to inhibit cell proliferation in a time and dose dependent manner. The IC50 values of resveratrol were 18.7 mu M and 56.8 mu M after 48 h and 72 h respectively. Resveratrol treatment of B-CPAP cells resulted in up to 1.5-fold reduction in BRAF mRNA and up to 5.5 fold reduction in ERK mRNA levels. NIS mRNA levels showed up to 3-fold increase. Western Blot studies confirmed the rt- PCR results with a decrease in BRAF and ERK, and increase in NIS protein expressions. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that resveratrol inhibits thyroid papillary carcinoma cell proliferation and reduces poor prognostic BRAF and ERK mRNA and protein expressions, while increasing NIS mRNA and protein expression suggesting a redifferentiating effect. More studies are needed to evaluate resveratrol as a novel therapeutic agent in the treatment of papillary thyroid cancer.Article Citation - Scopus: 27Apoptotic Effects of Resveratrol, a Grape Polyphenol, Onimatinib-Sensitive and Resistant K562 Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Cells(2012) Can,G.; Cakir,Z.; Kartal,M.; Gunduz,U.; Baran,Y.Aim: To examine the antiproliferative and apoptotic effects of resveratrol on imatinib-sensitive and imatinib-resistant K562 chronic myeloid leukemia cells. Materials and Methods: Antiproliferative effects of resveratrol were determined by the 3-Bis[2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulphophenyl]-2H-tetrazolium-5- carboxanilide inner salt (XTT) cell proliferation assay. Apoptotic effects of resveratrol on sensitive K562 and resistant K562/IMA-3 cells were determined through changes in caspase-3 activity, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and apoptosis by annexin V-(FITC). Results: The concentrations of resveratrol that inhibited cell growth by 50% ( IC50) were calculated as 85 and 122 μM for K562 and K562/IMA-3 cells, respectively. There were 1.91-, 7.42- and 14.73-fold increases in loss of MMP in K562 cells treated with 10, 50, and 100 μM resveratrol, respectively. The same concentrations of resveratrol resulted in 2.21-, 3.30- and 7.65-fold increases in loss of MMP in K562/IMA-3 cells. Caspase-3 activity increased 1.04-, 2.77- and 4.8-fold in K562 and 1.02-, 1.41- and 3.46-fold in K562/IMA- 3 cells in response to the same concentrations of resveratrol, respectively. Apoptosis was induced in 58.7%-and 43.3% of K562 and K562/IMA-3 cells, respectively, in response to 100 μM resveratrol. Conclusion: Taken together these results may suggest potential use of resveratrol in CML, as well as in patients with primary and/or acquired resistance to imatinib.Article Citation - WoS: 20Apoptotic Effects of Resveratrol, a Grape Polyphenol, on Imatinib-Sensitive and Resistant K562 Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Cells(International Institute of Anticancer Research, 2012) Can, Geylani; Çakır, Zeynep; Kartal, Melis; Gündüz, Ufuk; Baran, YusufTo examine the antiproliferative and apoptotic effects of resveratrol on imatinib-sensitive and imatinib-resistant K562 chronic myeloid leukemia cells.

Recently, finding new therapeutic agents or development of novel treatment strategies have been paid attention. Resveratrol and quercetin, important phytoalexins found in many plants, have been reported to have cytotoxic effects on various types of cancer. In this study, we examined cytotoxic, cytostatic, and apoptotic effects of these two important phenolic compounds on 232B4 human CLL cells. Cytotoxic effects of resveratrol and quercetin were determined by MTT cell proliferation assay. Changes in caspase-3 enzyme activity were measured using caspase-3 colorimetric assay. Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining was performed to measure apoptotic cell population. Effects of resveratrol and quercetin on cell cycle profiles of CLL cells were investigated by flow cytometry. Treatment of CLL cells with resveratrol and quercetin caused dose dependent inhibition of cell proliferation and increased apoptotic cell population through induction of caspase-3 activity. Cell cycle analysis displayed cell cycle arrest mainly in G0/G1 for both polyphenols. Our data, in total, showed for the first time that resveratrol and quercetin might block CLL growth through inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.Article Citation - WoS: 42Citation - Scopus: 48The Roles of Bioactive Sphingolipids in Resveratrol-Induced Apoptosis in Hl60 Acute Myeloid Leukemia Cells(Springer Verlag, 2011) Çakır, Zeynep; Saydam, Güray; Şahin, Fahri; Baran, YusufPurpose Acute promyelocytic leukemia results from a translocation between 15 and 17 chromosomes that produce PML/RARa fusion protein. PML/RARa inhibits differentiation of myeloid precursor cells at stem cell level. Resveratrol is a phytoalexin that exerts cytotoxic effects on cancer cells. Ceramides have crucial roles in cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, drug resistance, and apoptosis. In this study, we examined the possible cytotoxic effects of resveratrol on acute myeloid leukemia cells and determined the roles of ceramide-metabolizing genes in resveratrol-induced apoptosis, in addition to investigating the possibility of increasing the sensitivity of HL60 cells to resveratrol by manipulating sphingolipids. Methods Cytotoxic effects of resveratrol, C8:ceramide, PDMP, and SK-1 inhibitor were determined by XTT cell proliferation assay. Changes in caspase-3 enzyme activity and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were measured using caspase-3 colorimetric assay and JC-1 MMP detection kit. Expression levels of ceramide-metabolizing genes were examined by RT-PCR. Results The results revealed that manipulations of ceramide metabolism toward generation or accumulation of apoptotic ceramides increased apoptotic effects of resveratrol in HL60 cells, synergistically. More importantly, gene expression analyses revealed that resveratrol-induced apoptosis via increasing expression levels of ceramide generating genes and decreasing expression levels of antiapoptotic sphingosine kinase-1 and glucosylceramide synthase genes. Conclusion These results showed for the first time that increasing intracellular levels of ceramides by biochemical approaches has also increased sensitivity of HL60 cells to resveratrol. We also showed that resveratrol induces apoptosis through manipulating ceramide-metabolizing genes that resulted in the accumulation of ceramides in HL60 cells.
