Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Investigation of Cytotoxic Properties of Some Isoindole-Related Compounds Bearing Silyl and Azide Groups With in Vitro and in Silico Studies(Taylor & Francis, 2023) Tan, Ayşe; Köse, Aytekin; Mete, Derya; Şanlı Mohamed, Gülşah; Kışhalı, Nurhan H.; Kara, YunusThis study aims to evaluate the synthesis of isoindole-1,3-dione analogues and their cytotoxic potential. A549 and HeLa cells exposed to 250-100-50-25 mu M doses of each derivative were incubated for 24, 48, and 72 h. The cytotoxicity of the isoindole-1,3-dione derivatives was analyzed using the cell growth inhibition assay and the cell membrane damage test. (3aR,5R,6R,7aS)-5-Azido-2-benzyl-6-hydroxyhexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (1d), (3aR,5R,6R,7aS)-5-azido-6-((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)-2-ethylhexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (2a), and (3aR,5R,6R,7aS)-5-azido-6-((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)-2-methylhexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (2b) compounds inhibited the growth of the A549 and HeLa cells caused membrane damage and exhibited a dose-dependent cytotoxic effect on lung and cervical carcinoma cells. The effect of tert-butyldiphenylsilyl (TBDPS) groups on cytotoxicity was observed in compounds 2a and 2b, but not in the other compounds. Considering the effect of groups attached to the nitrogen atom, the best activity was exhibited in 2b molecule to which the methyl group is attached. Additionally, the interactions of compounds (3aR,5R,6R,7aS)-5-azido-6-hydroxy-2-methylhexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (1b), 1d, 2a and 2b with mammalian rapamycin target, human ribosomal S6 kinase 1 and human epidermal growth factor receptor were investigated by molecular docking studies, . According to the docking results, 2a and 2b compounds containing a TBDPS group have stronger binding energies than 1b and 1d compounds against all target receptors.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 15Sorafenib Loaded Zif-8 Metal-Organic Frameworks as a Multifunctional Nano-Carrier Offers Effective Hepatocellular Carcinoma Therapy(Elsevier, 2023) Mete, Derya; Yemeztaşlıca Yetişkin, Egehan; Şanlı Mohamed, GülşahHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a primary malignant neoplasia of the liver and sorafenib is one of the most commonly used drugs in the treatment of HCC. Due to undesirable nature and side effects of sorafenib, nano-drug delivery systems are being developed. A member of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), ZIF-8 offers a very suitable platform for drug transport and controlled drug release due to its zinc content and pH-sensitive, biodegradable in an acidic environment. In the present study, sorafenib was encapsulated in ZIF-8 material with 53.8% efficiency and 58% loading capacity (SRF@ZIF-8). Structural characterizations of synthesized ZIF-8 and SRF@ZIF-8 system were investigated in details. Drug release analysis exhibited a faster release profile at pH 5.0 compared to that of pH 7.4. The cytotoxic effects of sorafenib and zinc were investigated in HepG2 and HuH-7 cell lines in vitro. The results demonstrated that in addition to sorafenib, ZIF-8 provided zinc to the envi-ronment with its biodegradable structure resulted in an effective cytotoxic effect on HCC cells. The findings showed that a formulation combining zinc and sorafenib together was more effective in HCC treatment compared to sorafenib itself.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Fabrication and in Vitro Evaluation of Thermally Cross-Linked Gelatin Nanofibers for Drug Delivery Applications(Taylor & Francis, 2022) Mete, Derya; Göktaş, Gözde; Şanlı Mohamed, GülşahIn this study, four different nanofibers consisting of gelatin (Gel), doxorubicin (DOX) with gel (DOX@Gel), a composite of gel with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEGylated-gel), and DOX@PEGylated-gel were fabricated. Subsequently, the nanofibers were thermally cross-linked in order to offer a stable and biocompatible alternative for the biological applications of nanofibers such as drug delivery and tissue engineering. Nanofibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), and confocal microscopy. The formation of smooth, continuous, and uniform nanofibers was observed and the addition of PEG resulted in an increase whereas the incorporation of DOX into nanofibers had no significant change in the diameter of nanofibers. Crosslinking also enlarged the diameter of all nanofibers and the most dramatic increase was observed 53% by DOX@PEGylated-gel. Afterward, the biological performance of the nanofibers was investigated by drug release profile, cytotoxicity on A549 cell line as well as antimicrobial activity with E. coli and S. aureus. The results indicate an enhanced drug release profile, moderate antimicrobial activity, and reasonable cytotoxic efficiency for thermally cross-linked nanofibers compared to uncross-linked nanofibers.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8Synthesis and Topoisomerase I Inhibitory Properties of Klavuzon Derivatives(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Akçok, İsmail; Mete, Derya; Şen, Ayhan; Kasaplar, Pınar; Korkmaz, Kemal S.; Çağır, AliKlavuzon is a naphthalen-1-yl substituted α,β-unsaturated δ-lactone derivative, and is one of the anti-proliferative members of this class of compounds. Asymmetric and racemic syntheses of novel α,β-unsaturated δ-lactone derivatives are important to investigate their potential for the treatment of cancer. In this study, asymmetric and racemic syntheses of heteroatom-substituted klavuzon derivatives are reported. The syntheses were completed by a well-known three-step procedure. Anti-proliferative activity of seven novel racemic klavuzon derivatives were reported against MCF-7, PC3, HCT116 p53+/+ and HCT116 p53−/− cancer cell lines. Topoisomerase I inhibitory properties of 5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-one derivatives were also studied. © 2017 Elsevier Inc.
