    Apoptotic 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.

    Personalized Biomedicine in Cancer: From Traditional Therapy To Sustainable Healthcare
    (Elsevier, 2020) Ulu,G.T.; Kiraz,Y.; Baran,Y.
    What images are coming to your mind when you think about sustainable and qualified life? The main picture drawn is healthcare. Many people suffer from cancer; more than 18.1 million people were diagnosed with cancer and 9.6 million people died from cancer worldwide in 2018. Therefore many diagnosis and treatment strategies that are shaped and regulated by biomedicine approaches have been developed to solve this problem. Biomedicine is an interdisciplinary science to understand the interaction of biological, chemical, and physiological principles. These principles should be brought together to be applicable and sustainable for qualified life. Drug discovery and combination therapy using nanocarriers and natural compounds are being innovated as new approaches and opportunities for cancer treatment. Theoretically and practically, there is no limit to the development of new biomedicinal tools for personalized medicine in cancer. Therefore personalized medicine plays an important role for reaching successful therapy with low cost. By discovering the diverse potential of biomedicine, we can provide better healthcare in the world. © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Flavonoids in Cancer Therapy: Current and Future Trends
    (Elsevier, 2020) Gürler,S.B.; Kiraz,Y.; Baran,Y.
    Flavonoids are a family of polyphenolic photochemical that are naturally found in plants. Flavonoids have been widely studied due to the curiosity of scientists about the implementation of nature to human health. These experimental and epidemiological studies showed that flavonoids have beneficial effects such as antioxidation, antiinflammation, antiplatelet, antiallergic, antiaging, antidiabetic, and anticarcinogenic activity. They can also interact with and regulate cellular proteins, transcription factors, and signaling enzymes at the molecular level. Cancer is one of the most common problems in human health and millions of people die due to cancer every year. Due to the lack of completely efficient therapies for most cancer patients, new approaches should be discovered. Flavonoids have been investigated and many studies have confirmed their importance as a therapy option in many diseases. In this chapter we review the use of flavonoids as therapeutical agents and prevention for cancer, including the recent studies as well as future perspectives in the field. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.

    Tumor-Specific Genetic Profiling and Therapy in Biomedicine
    (Elsevier, 2020) Uzuner,E.; Kiraz,Y.; Baran,Y.
    Cancer cells divide continuously without any control, rendering immortal cells. These changes cause the dynamic instability in their genomes. Therefore each cancer cell in a tumor mass has various changes for specific tumor types. Their differences should be diagnosed on the basis of mutated genes and/or proteins. After the detection of alterations in cancer cells based on the techniques and instruments of biomedicine, personalized therapy continues with preexisting drug implementations. Personalized therapy broadens the borders with circulating tumor cells causing the metastasis in distant regions, developing specific gene therapies, novel targeted drugs, and immunotherapeutics for eliminating cancerous cells precisely. Within this context, biomedicine helps humankind to merge the biological and physiological knowledge to clinical practice. In this chapter, we aimed to clarify attitudes in biomedicine from molecular changes from single tumor cells to in vivo studies to find the best therapy for a cancer patient. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.
