Article Assessment of Cytotoxic Potentials of Isoindole-Derived Compounds With Epoxy Alcohol Functionalities on Different Cancer Cell Lines and Molecular Docking Analysis(Maik Nauka/Interperiodica/Springer, 2025) Yetiskin, Egehan; Gundogdu, Ozlem; Mete, Derya; Kishali, Nurhan H.; Kara, Yunus; Sanli-Mohamed, GulsahObjective: Isoindoline and epoxycyclohexane derivatives are known to exert beneficial effects on various inflammatory pathologies, including cancer. This study uniquely evaluates the cytotoxic potential of four synthesized isoindoline derivatives against five different cancer cell lines. Methods: Cancer cell lines were treated with varying concentrations of each derivative and incubated for 24, 48, and 72 h. Cytotoxicity was assessed via cell growth inhibition assays and cell membrane damage tests. Additionally, molecular docking studies were conducted to examine the interaction of the compounds with key cancer-related proteins: human tankyrase 1, c-MET, estrogen receptor alpha, androgen receptor, and EGFR. Results and Discussion: The epoxy alcohol derivatives demonstrated a dose-dependent cytotoxic effect, inhibited cell proliferation, and induced membrane damage in adenocarcinoma cell lines. Apoptosis rates and in vitro wound healing assays further supported their antiproliferative potential. Conclusions: These findings suggest that epoxy isoindole derivatives may serve as promising anticancer agents for the treatment of cervical, lung, prostate, and breast cancers due to their cytotoxic and antiproliferative activities. Molecular docking results corroborated their potential mechanism of action.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 7Five New Cardenolides Transformed From Oleandrin and Nerigoside by Alternaria Eureka 1e1bl1 and Phaeosphaeriasp. 1e4cs-1 and Their Cytotoxic Activities(Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Karakoyun, Çiğdem; Küçüksolak, Melis; Bilgi, Eyüp; Doğan, Gamze; Çömlekçi, Yiğit Ege; Bedir, ErdalBiotransformation of oleandrin (1) and nerigoside (2) by endophytic fungi; Alternaria eureka 1E1BL1 and Phaeospheria sp. 1E4CS-1, has led to the isolation of five new metabolites (3, 5, 6, 7 and 8) together with a known compound (4). The structures of the biotransformation products were elucidated by 1D-, 2D NMR and HR-MS. Phaeospheria sp. mainly provided monooxygenation reactions on the A and B rings, whereas A. eureka afforded both monooxygenated and desacetylated derivatives of the substrates. Cytotoxic activity of the compounds was tested against a non-cancerous (HEK-293) and four cancer (PANC-1, MIA PaCa-2, DU 145 and A549) cell lines by MTT cell viability assay. All compounds were less cytotoxic than oleandrin, which had IC50 values ranging between 2.7 and 41.9 nM. Two of the monohydroxylated metabolites, viz. 7(?)-hydroxy oleandrin (3) and 1(?)-hydroxy oleandrin (7), were also potent with IC50 values from 18.45 to 39.0 nM, while desacetylated + monohydroxylated, or dihydroxylated products had much lower cytotoxicity. Additionally, the lesser activity of 2 and its metabolite (6) possessing diginose as sugar residue inferred that oleandrose moiety is important for the toxicity of oleandrin as well as hydrophobicity of the steroid core. © 2020 Phytochemical Society of EuropeArticle Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Soluble Cytotoxic Ruthenium(ii) Complexes With 2-Hydrazinopyridine(Pleiades Publishing, 2019) Soliman, A. A.; Attaby, F. A.; Alajrawy, O., I; Majeed, S. R.; Şahin, C.; Varlıklı, CananNew water soluble Ru(II) binary complex [Ru(C5H7N3)(X)(H2O)(2)] with 2-hydrazinopyridine and its ternary complexes with X = dichloride, oxalate, malonate or pyrophosphate ligands have been synthesized. The complexes have been characterized using elemental analyses, mass, IR, and UV-Vis. spectroscopies, cyclic voltammetry, magnetic susceptibility, and thermal analysis. The complexes are diamagnetic and the electronic spectral data showed that peaks are due to low spin octahedral Ru(II) complexes. The optimized structures of the complexes 1-4 indicate distorted octahedral geometry with bond angles around the ruthenium atom ranged from 80.44 degrees to 99.64 degrees. The values of the electronic energies (-635 to -1145 a.u.), the highest occupied molecular orbital energies (-0.181 to 0.073 a.u.) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energies (-0.056 to 0.167 a.u.) indicate the stability of the complexes. The complexes are polarized as indicated from the dipole moment values (9.39-14.27 Debye). The complexes have noticeable cytotoxicity with IC50 (mu M): 0.011-0.062 (HepG-2), 0.015-0.080 (MCF-7), 0.015-0.116 (HCT-116), and PC-3 (0.034-0.125).Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Ligand-Based Virtual Screening and Molecular Docking of Two Cytotoxic Compounds Isolated From Papaver Lacerum(Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Bayazeid, Omer; Bedir, Erdal; Yalçın, Funda N.This study revealed that the Papaver lacerum extract strongly inhibited HeLa cell proliferation, resulting in 13% cell viability. As a result of phytochemical studies, one known compound, Tyrosol-1-O-beta-xylopyranosyl-(1 -> 6)-O-beta-glucopyranoside) (I), and one new compound, 5-O-(6-O-alpha-rhamnopyronosyl-beta-glucopyronosyl) mevalonic acid (II), were isolated. Compounds I and II were found to possess a moderate cytotoxic effect with an IC50 of 66.4 mu M (p < 0.0001) and 54 mu M (p < 0.0001), respectively. The ligand-based virtual screening technique was used to reveal the possible molecular target of compounds I and II. The molecular target was identified as protein-tyrosine kinase Syk for compound I, and aldo-keto reductase family-1 for compound II. Molecular docking was used to assess the binding affinity of the compounds with the targets obtained from ligand-based virtual screening.Article Citation - WoS: 426Citation - Scopus: 470Cell Proliferation and Cytotoxicity Assays(Bentham Science Publishers, 2016) Adan, Aysun; Kiraz, Yağmur; Baran, YusufCell viability is defined as the number of healthy cells in a sample and proliferation of cells is a vital indicator for understanding the mechanisms in action of certain genes, proteins and pathways involved cell survival or death after exposing to toxic agents. Generally, methods used to determine viability are also common for the detection of cell proliferation. Cell cytotoxicity and proliferation assays are generally used for drug screening to detect whether the test molecules have effects on cell proliferation or display direct cytotoxic effects. Regardless of the type of cell-based assay being used, it is important to know how many viable cells are remaining at the end of the experiment. There are a variety of assay methods based on various cell functions such as enzyme activity, cell membrane permeability, cell adherence, ATP production, co-enzyme production, and nucleotide uptake activity. These methods could be basically classified into different categories: (I) dye exclusion methods such as trypan blue dye exclusion assay, (II) methods based on metabolic activity, (III) ATP assay, (IV) sulforhodamine B assay, (V) protease viability marker assay, (VI) clonogenic cell survival assay, (VII) DNA synthesis cell proliferation assays and (V) raman micro-spectroscopy. In order to choose the optimal viability assay, the cell type, applied culture conditions, and the specific questions being asked should be considered in detail. This particular review aims to provide an overview of common cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assays together with their own advantages and disadvantages, their methodologies, comparisons and intended purposes.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 22Synthesis and Anticancer Activity Evaluation of New Isoindole Analogues(Birkhauser Verlag, 2017) Köse, Aytekin; Bal, Yıldız; Şanlı Mohamed, Gülşah; Kara, YunusWe have developed a versatile synthetic approach for the synthesis of new isoindole derivatives via the cleavage of ethers from tricyclic imide skeleton compounds. An exo-cycloadduct prepared from the Diels–Alder reaction of furan and maleic anhydride furnished imide derivatives. The epoxide ring was opened with Ac2O in the presence of a catalytic amount of H2SO4 in order to yield new isoindole derivatives (8a and 8b). The anticancer activity of these compounds was evaluated against MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma) and A549 (adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial) cell lines. The synthesized compounds showed concentration- and time-dependent inhibitory effects on the viability of both cell lines. Compound 8a was more toxic compared to 8b in both cancer cell lines, having higher cytotoxicity against A549 cells. Testing the toxicity properties of these compounds on the BEAS 2B (human bronchial epithelial) cell line indicated that while both compounds decreased the cell viability of cancer cells, they were less toxic on healthy lung cells. Microscopy images of A549 cells after treatment with the new isoindole derivatives displayed characteristic apoptotic morphology compared to BEAS 2B cells. The results demonstrated here suggest that these new compounds might be considered as possible potential anticancer agents for the treatment of lung and breast cancer. © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media New York.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 15Bodipy-Conjugated Chitosan Nanoparticles as a Fluorescent Probe(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2017) Bor, Gizem; Üçüncü, Muhammed; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa; Tomak, Aysel; Şanlı Mohamed, GülşahRecently, development of fluorescent nanoparticle-based probes for various bioimaging applications has attracted great attention. This work aims to develop a new type fluorescent nanoparticle conjugate and evaluate its cytotoxic effects on A549 and BEAS 2B cell lines. Throughout the study, ionically crosslinked chitosan nanoparticles (CNs) were conjugated with carboxylated 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY-COOH). The results of conjugates (BODIPY-CNs) were investigated with regard to their physic-chemical, optical, cytotoxic properties and cellular internalization. The morphology of BODIPY-CNs was found to be spherical in shape and quite uniform having average diameter of 70.25 ± 11.99 nm. Cytotoxicty studies indicated that although BODIPY-COOH itself was quite toxic on both A549- and BEAS 2B-treated cells, CNs increased the cell viability of both cell lines via conjugation to BODIPY-COOH fluorescent molecule up to 67% for A549 and 74% for BEAS 2B cells. These results may suggest a possible utilization of the new fluorescent nanoparticle-based probe for bioimaging in biology and medicine.
