Conference Object Peptıde Targeted Core Cross-lınked Mıcelles For Dox Delıvery To Her2 Expressıng Cancer Cells(Mary Ann Liebert, 2022) Bayram, Nazende Nur; Ulu, Gizem Tuğçe; Gürdap, Seda; İşoğlu, İsmail Alper; Baran, Yusuf; Dinçer İşoğlu, SevilIn this study, we prepared a novel targeted and extra stable micellar nanocarrier that can facilitate intracellular drug release. First, ((N-3-sulfopropyl-N, N-dimethylammonium)ethyl methacrylate was synthesized by RAFT polymerization, and it was followed by copolymerization of macroCTA with AEM in the presence of an aciddegradable cross-linker. Then, a peptide estimated by phage display for HER-2 recognition was incorporated into these core cross-linked micelles with carbodiimide reaction.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 13Her2-Targeted, Degradable Core Cross-Linked Micelles for Specific and Dual Ph-Sensitive Dox Release(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2021) Bayram, Nazende Nur; Ulu, Gizem Tuğçe; Topuzoğulları, Murat; Baran, Yusuf; Dinçer İşoğlu, SevilHere, a targeted, dual-pH responsive, and stable micelle nanocarrier is designed, which specifically selects an HER2 receptor on breast cancer cells. Intracellularly degradable and stabilized micelles are prepared by core cross-linking via reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization with an acid-sensitive cross-linker followed by the conjugation of maleimide-doxorubicin to the pyridyl disulfide-modified micelles. Multifunctional nanocarriers are obtained by coupling HER2-specific peptide. Formation of micelles, addition of peptide and doxorubicin (DOX) are confirmed structurally by spectroscopical techniques. Size and morphological characterization are performed by Zetasizer and transmission electron microscope (TEM). For the physicochemical verification of the synergistic acid-triggered degradation induced by acetal and hydrazone bond degradation, Infrared spectroscopy and particle size measurements are used. Drug release studies show that DOX release is accelerated at acidic pH. DOX-conjugated HER2-specific peptide-carrying nanocarriers significantly enhance cytotoxicity toward SKBR-3 cells. More importantly, no selectivity toward MCF-10A cells is observed compared to HER2(+) SKBR-3 cells. Formulations cause apoptosis depending on Bax and Caspase-3 and cell cycle arrest in G2 phase. This study shows a novel system for HER2-targeted therapy of breast cancer with a multifunctional nanocarrier, which has higher stability, dual pH-sensitivity, selectivity, and it can be an efficient way of targeted anticancer drug delivery.Conference Object Advantage of Co-Culture Strategy for Targeted Cancer Treatment and in Vitro Studies(Elsevier, 2021) Ulu, Gizem Tuğçe; Bayram, Nazende Nur; Dinçer İşoğlu, Sevil; Baran, YusufBreast cancer tissues include carcinoma cells and stromal cells, and intra-tumoral stroma that consists of different types of cells. For this point, cell-cell interaction and communication have a potential role in cancer progression. Mono-cell culture is used for cancer treatment approaches. However, cell-cell interaction and communication can not be evaluated on mono-culture cells. So, co-culture models provide low-cost screening to determine cell proliferation for drug application before moving forward to in vivo models. Also, determination of cell morphology in co culture system is critical to understand advantages.
