Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Label-Free Detection of Rare Cancer Cells Using Deep Learning and Magnetic Levitation Principle(SPIE, 2021) Delikoyun, Kerem; Demir, Ali Aslan; Tekin, Hüseyin CumhurMagnetic levitation is an effective tool for separating target cells within a heterogeneous solution by utilizing density differences among cell lines. However, magnetic levitation cannot be used to identify target cells which have similar density profile as the other cells in the solution. Therefore, accuracy of cell identification can dramatically reduce. In this study, we introduce, for the first time, the use of deep learning-based object detection approach for label-free identification of rare cancer cells within levitated cells. As a result, our novel and hybrid detection strategy could be used to identify circulating tumor cells for diagnosis and prognosis of cancer. © 2021 SPIE.Article Citation - WoS: 4A Src/Abl Kinase Inhibitor, Bosutinib, Downregulates and Inhibits Parp Enzyme and Sensitizes Cells To the DNA Damaging Agents(Türk Biyokimya Derneği, 2018) Kırmızıbayrak, Petek Ballar; İlhan, Recep; Yılmaz, Sinem; Günal, Selin; Tepedelen, Burcu ErbaykentBackground: Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) catalyzed mainly by PARP1 is a highly regulated posttranslational modification associated with several pathways in cellular physiology and genotoxic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage response. PAR polymers and PARP enzyme function in DNA integrity maintenance and several PARP inhibitors have entered clinical phase studies for cancer therapies. Material and methods: The effect of bosutinib, a dual Src/Abl kinase inhibitor, on PARylation was fluorometrically measured. The cytotoxic and chemosensitizing effects were assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The levels of DNA repair proteins and PARP enzyme were examined by immunoblotting. Results: In this study, bosutinib is characterized as a novel PARP inhibitor. Bosutinib inhibited oxidative stress-induced cellular PARylation and nuclear foci formation by downregulating PARP1 levels. Bosutinib was found to be more cytotoxic on Capan1 cells with BRCA2 mutation. Furthermore by acting as a chemosensitizer, bosutinib enhanced the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin (DOXO) and etoposide (ETP) by decreasing phosphorylation of DNA repair enzymes checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) and ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM). Conclusion: By inhibition of both PARP and DNA damage checkpoint kinases, bosutinib increased the phospho-H2AX levels, an early indicator of DNA double strand breaks.Book Part Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 15Single Cell Densitometry and Weightlessness Culture of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Using Magnetic Levitation(Humana Press, 2020) Anıl İnevi, Müge; Yılmaz, Esra; Sarıgil, Öykü; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Özçivici, EnginMagnetic levitation methodology enables density-based separation of microparticles/cells and sustains cell culture in different media. Levitation process can be accomplished via negative magnetophoresis (diamagnetophoresis), where the applied magnetic force compensates gravitational acceleration and the density of the diamagnetic object (e.g., cell) determines its levitation height. Here we describe a portable, sensitive, and cost-effective technology that uses the principles of magnetic levitation to measure single cell density and cell culture under desired conditions. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media New York.
