Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2A Novel Approach Utilizing Rapid Thin-Film Microextraction Method for Salivary Metabolomics Studies in Lung Cancer Diagnosis(Elsevier, 2024) Pelit, Fusun; Erbas, Ilknur; Ozupek, Nazli Mert; Gul, Merve; Sakrak, Esra; Ocakoglu, Kasim; Goksel, Ozlem; Özdemir, DurmuşThis study investigated the potential of targeted salivary metabolomics as a convenient diagnostic tool for lung cancer (LC), utilizing a rapid TFME-based method. It specifically examines TFME blades modified with SiO2 nanoparticles, which were produced using a custom-made coating system. Validation of the metabolite biomarker analysis was performed by these blades using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy (LCMS/MS). The extraction efficiencies of SiO2 nanoparticle/polyacrylonitrile (PAN) composite-coated blades were compared for 18 metabolites. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the analysis conditions. Linear calibration plots were obtained for all metabolites at concentrations between 0.025 to 4.0 mu g/mL in the presence of internal standard, with correlation coefficients (R-2) ranging from 0.9975 to 0.9841. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) were in the range of 0.014 to 0.97 mu g mL(-1) and 0.046 to 3.20 mu gmL(-1), respectively. The %RSD values for all analytes were within the acceptable range (less than 20 %) for the proposed method. The method was applied to the saliva samples of 40 patients with LC and 38 healthy controls. The efficacy of metabolites for LC diagnosis was determined by in silico methods and the results reveal that phenylalanine and purine metabolism metabolites (e.g., hypoxanthine) are of great importance for LC diagnosis. Furthermore, potentially significant biomarker analysis results from the ROC curve data reveal that proline, hypoxanthine, and phenylalanine were identified as potential biomarkers for LC diagnosis.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 3Advances and Future Perspective of Graphene Field Effect Transistors (gfets) for Medical Diagnostics and Point-Of Tools(World Scientific Publishing, 2022) İnanç, Dilce; Mutlu, Mustafa Umut; Karabacak, Soner; Yıldız, Ümit HakanRecently, major focus has been centered to enhance the capability of graphenebased devices and to facilitate utilization of graphene for biological applications by lowering its toxicity. In this chapter, from synthesis to applications, many of the conspicuous characteristics of graphene have been elaborately reviewed. We primarily focused on graphene-based field effect transistor (FET) for medical diagnostics and point-of-care applications. The device configurations and their application potential as well as sensing capability of various graphene FETs (GFETs) have been discussed. Here, we have also presented several aspects and advantages of GFETs in medical applications while discussing their pros and cons in commercialization.

Halil; Özgener, Hüseyin; Gurbuz, BurcinNovel control products are needed in the control of important insects like mosquitoes which are developing resistance to insecticides and larvicides currently in the market. Boron compounds have been demonstrated to exhibit antibacterial and anticancer effects. 1,2-diboranes with a long history and importance in boron chemistry have been described. These compounds are synthesized from reactions of 1,2-dichlordiborane derivatives with lidium amides (ArNHLi/Et2NLi, etc.). In addition to the three previously synthesized diborane compounds, five novel 1,2-diborane compounds were synthesized in good yield using the same method for the first time. The structures of the novel derivatives were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and the molecular structure of one of them (2a) was also demonstrated using single crystal X-ray diffraction. In this preliminary study, the ovicidal and larvicidal effects of new 1,2-diamino-1,2-diborane derivatives against Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus eggs and larvae were investigated for the first time. Of these, 2a and 2e showed the highest ovicidal activity against both species, while 7, 4 and 2d showed particularly high larvicidal activity. Some 1,2-diborane derivatives were found to be significantly toxic, with LC50 values ranging from 14,930 to 27,975 mu g/mL. Some derivatives (6, 2a, 2c) were less effective against mosquito larvae. 1,2-Diborane derivatives have high ovicidal and larvicidal effects on mosquitoes and are therefore potential candidates for the development of new larvicides. Further studies are needed to evaluate its mode of action and safety. Understanding their mode of action against mosquito development is crucial to optimizing their use and reducing the potential development of resistance. Their potential effects on other mosquito species and non -target organisms need to be investigated.Article Citation - Scopus: 3Development of Chrono-Spectral Gold Nanoparticle Growth Based Plasmonic Biosensor Platform(Elsevier, 2024) Sözmen, Alper Baran; Elveren, Beste; Erdoğan, Duygu; Mezgil, Bahadır; Baştanlar, Yalın; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Arslan Yıldız, AhuPlasmonic sensor platforms are designed for rapid, label-free, and real-time detection and they excel as the next generation biosensors. However, current methods such as Surface Plasmon Resonance require expertise and well-equipped laboratory facilities. Simpler methods such as Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) overcome those limitations, though they lack sensitivity. Hence, sensitivity enhancement plays a crucial role in the future of plasmonic sensor platforms. Herein, a refractive index (RI) sensitivity enhancement methodology is reported utilizing growth of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) on solid support and it is backed up with artificial neural network (ANN) analysis. Sensor platform fabrication was initiated with GNP immobilization onto solid support; immobilized GNPs were then used as seeds for chrono-spectral growth, which was carried out using NH2OH at varied incubation times. The response to RI change of the platform was investigated with varied concentrations of sucrose and ethanol. The detection of bacteria E.coli BL21 was carried out for validation as a model microorganism and results showed that detection was possible at 102 CFU/ml. The data acquired by spectrophotometric measurements were analyzed by ANN and bacteria classification with percentage error rates near 0% was achieved. The proposed LSPR-based, label-free sensor application proved that the developed methodology promises utile sensitivity enhancement potential for similar sensor platforms. © 2024 The Author(s)Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6A Novel 2-Aminophenalenone Fluorescent Probe Designed for Monitoring H2o2 for in Vitro and in Vivo Bioimaging(Elsevier, 2024) Saygılı, Ecem; Ersöz Gülseven, Esra; Kıbrıs, Erman; Çakan Akdoğan, Gülçin; Üçüncü, MuhammedA significant compound in living organisms, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays a dual role as a signalling molecule in cellular communication and as a pivotal biomarker in assessing disease and oxidative stress. Thus, the detection of abnormal changes in H2O2 levels is essential to understanding its function and involvement in biological systems. The growing demand to meet the specific needs for applications, particularly in biological systems, has sharpened focus on highly sensitive, highly selective molecular sensors and, in turn, heightened interest in these diagnostic tools with innovative designs. In our study, 2-aminophenalenone (2-AP) was used for the first time as a fluorophore in a fluorescent probe. The 2-APB molecule obtained from the reaction of 2-AP with 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl) benzyl chloroformate exhibited a highly selective and sensitive (i.e. 62 nM) detection profile for H2O2 compared with the other reactive oxygen species, anions, and metal cations. Moreover, offering naked-eye detection in aqueous solutions, 2-APB demonstrated excellent sensing performance, detection and real-time monitoring in relation to exogenous H2O2 in cells and endogenous H2O2 in zebrafish embryos. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1The Soft Nanodots as Fluorescent Probes for Cell Imaging: Analysis of Cell and Spheroid Penetration Behavior of Single Chain Polymer Dots(Wiley, 2024) Yücel, Müge; Onbaş, Rabia; Arslan Yıldız, Ahu; Yıldız, Ümit HakanThis study describes the formation, size control, and penetration behavior of polymer nanodots (Pdots) consisting of single or few chain polythiophene-based conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs) via nanophase separation between good solvent and poor solvent of CPE. Though the chain singularity may be associated with dilution nanophase separation suggests that molecules of a good solvent create a thermodynamically driven solvation layer surrounding the CPEs and thereby separating the single chains even in their poor solvents. This statement is therefore corroborated with emission intensity/lifetime, particle size, and scattering intensity of polyelectrolyte in good and poor solvents. Regarding the augmented features, Pdots are implemented into cell imaging studies to understand the nuclear penetration and to differentiate the invasive characteristics of breast cancer cells. The python based red, green, blue (RGB) color analysis depicts that Pdots have more nuclear penetration ability in triple negative breast cancer cells due to the different nuclear morphology in shape and composition and Pdots have penetrated cell membrane as well as extracellular matrix in spheroid models. The current Pdot protocol and its utilization in cancer cell imaging are holding great promise for gene/drug delivery to target cancer cells by explicitly achieving the very first priority of nuclear intake. The penetration capability of cationic soft nanodots in to tumor models of breast cancer is demonstrated. The image analysis based on fluorescence intensity variation reveals the characteristics of translocation of nanodots in dense mediums such as tumor models.imageArticle Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Roadmap on Multifunctional Materials for Drug Delivery(IOP Publishing, 2024) Nottelet, Benjamin; Buwalda, Sytze; van Nostrum, Cornelus F.; Zhao, Xiaofei; Deng, Chao; Zhong, Zhiyuan; Cheah, Ernest; Kehr, Nermin SedaThis Roadmap on drug delivery aims to cover some of the most recent advances in the field of materials for drug delivery systems (DDSs) and emphasizes the role that multifunctional materials play in advancing the performance of modern DDSs in the context of the most current challenges presented.

Honeybees’ used main plant source will determine propolis chemical composition thus its biological activity. Thus, determination of the propolis botanical source is highly important for its standardization and prediction of its pharmacological activity. There are two commonly applied methods to seek propolis botanical sources: chromatographic techniques and palynological analysis. In this study, high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) and ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography combined with mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS) applied comparatively with pollen analysis to propolis samples. The results of the chromatographic analyses were evaluated with principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA). Consequently, chromatographic techniques applied in this study were found to be superior to pollen analysis to identify the main plant source of propolis. Besides, HPTLC images revealed not only main botanical sources but also minor sources of propolis. Therefore, HPTLC fingerprinting combined with PCA and HCA resulted in grouping propolis samples according to geographical regions. This study may lead to pharmaceutical industries for the quality assurance of propolis while preparing standardized propolis formulations in the market with desired pharmacological properties. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.Article Citation - Scopus: 1A Perspective on the State-Of Functionalized 2d Materials(American Institute of Physics, 2023) Duran, Tuna; Yayak, Yankı Öncü; Aydın, Hasan; Peeters, François M.; Yağmurcukardeş, MehmetTwo-dimensional (2D) ultra-thin materials are more crucial than their bulk counterparts for the covalent functionalization of their surface owing to atomic thinness, large surface-to-volume ratio, and high reactivity of surface atoms having unoccupied orbitals. Since the surface of a 2D material is composed of atoms having unoccupied orbitals, covalent functionalization enables one to improve or precisely modify the properties of the ultra-thin materials. Chemical functionalization of 2D materials not only modifies their intrinsic properties but also makes them adapted for nanotechnology applications. Such engineered materials have been used in many different applications with their improved properties. In the present Perspective, we begin with a brief history of functionalization followed by the introduction of functionalized 2D materials. Our Perspective is composed of the following sections: the applications areas of 2D graphene and graphene oxide crystals, transition metal dichalcogenides, and in-plane anisotropic black phosphorus, all of which have been widely used in different nanotechnology applications. Finally, our Perspectives on the future directions of applications of functionalized 2D materials are given. The present Perspective sheds light on the current progress in nanotechnological applications of engineered 2D materials through surface functionalization. © 2023 Author(s).Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 15Antiproliferative and Apoptotic Effects of Olive Leaf Extract Microcapsules on Mcf-7 and A549 Cancer Cells(American Chemical Society, 2023) Bal, Yıldız; Sürmeli, Yusuf; Şanlı Mohamed, GülşahAlginate microcapsules are a talented means for the delivery of broad curative biomacromolecules. In this study, we immobilized olive leaf extract (OLE) by calcium alginate (CA) and chitosan-coated CA (CCA) and characterized the OLE-loaded CA and CCA. The cytotoxic effect, the cell cycle arrest, and the apoptotic effect of OLE and its microcapsules were investigated against breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) and lung carcinoma (A549). As a result, the loading capacity of OLE-CA and OLE-CCA was found to be 80 and 99%, respectively, in optimal conditions. Also, OLE-CA and OLE-CCA were characterized by unique FTIR peaks and morphological display relative to the empty CCA microcapsules. The cytotoxicity analysis showed that the IC50 values of OLE-CA and OLE-CCA were determined to be 312 and 0.94 μg mL-1 against A549, respectively, whereas these were found to be 865.4 and 425.5 μg mL-1 for MCF-7 cells. On the other hand, the OLE microcapsules did not possess in any concentration of cytotoxic influence on the BEAS 2B healthy cell line. Also, the exposure of OLE-CCA to MCF-7 and A549 resulted in the arrest of more MCF-7 and A549 cells at the G0/G1 phase compared to the OLE. A549 and MCF-7 cells were predominantly found in the late apoptosis phase and necrosis phase, respectively. Optical microscopy images confirmed that OLE microcapsules were more effective against MCF-7 and A549 than free OLE. The present work suggested that the OLE microcapsules might be administered as nutrition supplements for cancer therapy. © 2023 The Authors. Published by American Chemical Society.
