    Induction of Secondary Metabolism of Marine Derived Streptomyces Cacaoi
    (Georg Thieme Verlag, 2019) Gezer, Erkin; Bilgi, Eyüp; Küçüksolak, Melis; Bedir, Erdal
    Microbial natural products have an adaptive role as signal molecules or defense tools in ecological interactions. Biosynthesis of these molecules is suppressed in standard laboratory conditions where there are no ecological triggers. Thus, only a portion of the chemical diversity of a microbial strain is discovered by standard fermentation protocols. However, using different fermentation conditions or different approaches such as co-culture, biosynthesis of these suppressed molecules can be triggered, and new natural products can be isolated.

    Rhodium(i)-Catalyzed Carbonylative Arylation of Alkynes With Arylboronic Acids Using Formaldehyde as a Carbonyl Source
    (Georg Thieme Verlag, 2014) Wang, Chuang; Morimoto, Tsumoru; Kanashiro, Hiroyuki; Tanimoto, Hiroki; Nishiyama, Yasuhiro; Kakiuchi, Kiyomi; Artok, Levent
    The rhodium(I)-catalyzed reaction of alkynes with arylboronic acids in the presence of formaldehyde resulted in a carbon monoxide gas-free carbonylative arylation to yield α,β-enones. The simultaneous loading of phosphine-ligated and phosphine-free rhodium(I) complexes is required for efficient catalysis, which catalyze the abstraction of a carbonyl moiety from formaldehyde (decarbonylation) and its subsequent introduction into the substrate (carbonylation), respectively.

    Olive Leaf Extracts Protect Cardiomyocytes Against 4-Hydroxynonenal Toxicity in Vitro: Comparison With Oleuropein, Hydroxytyrosol, and Quercetin
    (Georg Thieme Verlag, 2014) Bali, Elif Burcu; Ergin, Volkan; Rackova, Lucia; Bayraktar, Oğuz; Küçükboyacı, Nurgün; Karasu, Çimen
    Olive (Olea europaea) leaf, an important traditional herbal medicine, displays cardioprotection that may be related to the cellular redox modulating effects of its polyphenolic constituents. This study was undertaken to investigate the protective effect of the ethanolic and methanolic extracts of olive leaves compared to the effects of oleuropein, hydroxytyrosol, and quercetin as a positive standard in a carbonyl compound (4-hydroxynonenal)- induced model of oxidative damage to rat cardiomyocytes (H9c2). Cell viability was detected by the MTT assay; reactive oxygen species production was assessed by the 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate method, and the mitochondrial membrane potential was determined using a JC-1 dye kit. Phospho-Hsp27 (Ser82), phospho-MAPKAPK-2 (Thr334), phospho-c-Jun (Ser73), cleaved-caspase-3 (cl-CASP3) (Asp175), and phospho-SAPK/JNK (Thr183/Tyr185) were measured by Western blotting. The ethanolic and methanolic extracts of olive leaves inhibited 4-hydroxynonenal-induced apoptosis, characterized by increased reactive oxygen species production, impaired viability (LD50: 25 μM), mitochondrial dysfunction, and activation of pro-apoptotic cl-CASP3. The ethanolic and methanolic extracts of olive leaves also inhibited 4-hydroxynonenal-induced phosphorylation of stress-activated transcription factors, and the effects of extracts on p-SAPK/JNK, p-Hsp27, and p-MAPKAPK-2 were found to be concentration-dependent and comparable with oleuropein, hydroxytyrosol, and quercetin. While the methanolic extract downregulated 4-hydroxynonenal-induced p-MAPKAPK-2 and p-c-Jun more than the ethanolic extract, it exerted a less inhibitory effect than the ethanolic extract on 4-hydroxynonenal-induced p-SAPK/JNK and p-Hsp27. cl-CASP3 and p-Hsp27 were attenuated, especially by quercetin. Experiments showed a predominant reactive oxygen species inhibitory and mitochondrial protecting ability at a concentration of 1-10 μg/mL of each extract, oleuropein, hydroxytyrosol, and quercetin. The ethanolic extract of olive leaves, which contains larger amounts of oleuropein, hydroxytyrosol, verbascoside, luteolin, and quercetin (by HPLC) than the methanolic one, has more protecting ability on cardiomyocyte viability than the methanolic extract or each phenolic compound against 4-hydroxynonenal-induced carbonyl stress and toxicity.

    Synthesis of Α,β-Unsaturated Ketones by Rhodium-Catalyzed Carbonylative Arylation of Internal Alkynes With Arylboronic Acids
    (Georg Thieme Verlag, 2008) Kuş, Melih; Aksın Artok, Özge; Ziyanak, Fırat; Artok, Levent
    The Rh-catalyzed reaction of arylboronic acids with internal alkynes under a CO atmosphere in the presence of an acid additive afforded α,β-unsaturated ketones as the major products. Hydroacylation of internal alkynes, except in the case of diaryl acetylenes, proceeded in syn fashion, yielding the E-configured isomer. A mixture of E- and Z-isomers was obtained with diphenyl acetylene. Reactions were also highly regioselective for various nonsymmetric alkynes.
