Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Therapeutic Potentials of Inhibition of Jumonji C Domain-Containing Demethylases in Acute Myeloid Leukemia(Aves, 2020) Koca, Duygu; Hastar, Nurcan; Engür, Selin; Kiraz, Yağmur; Ulu, Gizem Tuğçe; Çekdemir, Demet; Baran, YusufAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a complex disease affected by both genetic and epigenetic factors. Histone methylation and demethylation are types of epigenetic modification in chromatin remodeling and gene expression. Abnormal expression of histone demethylases is indicated in many types of cancer including AML. Although many commercial drugs are available to treat AML, an absolute cure has not been discovered yet. However, inhibition of demethylases could be a potential cure for AML. Methylstat is a chemical agent that inhibits the Jumonji C domain-containing demethylases.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 22Effects of Spaceflight on Cells of Bone Marrow Origin(Aves, 2013) Özçivici, EnginOnce only a subject for science fiction novels, plans for establishing habitation on space stations, the Moon, and distant planets now appear among the short-term goals of space agencies. This article reviews studies that present biomedical issues that appear to challenge humankind for long-term spaceflights. With particularly focus on cells of bone marrow origin, studies involving changes in bone, immune, and red blood cell populations and their functions due to extended weightlessness were reviewed. Furthermore, effects of mechanical disuse on primitive stem cells that reside in the bone marrow were also included in this review. Novel biomedical solutions using space biotechnology will be required in order to achieve the goal of space exploration without compromising the functions of bone marrow, as spaceflight appears to disrupt homeostasis for all given cell types.
