Article A Novel Technique Using Integral Transforms and Residual Functions for Nonlinear Partial Fractional Differential Equations Involving Caputo Derivatives(Public Library of Science, 2024) Khan, Z.A.; Riaz, M.B.; Liaqat, M.I.; Akgül, A.Fractional nonlinear partial differential equations are used in many scientific fields to model various processes, although most of these equations lack closed-form solutions. For this reason, methods for approximating solutions that occasionally yield closed-form solutions are crucial for solving these equations. This study introduces a novel technique that combines the residual function and a modified fractional power series with the Elzaki transform to solve various nonlinear problems within the Caputo derivative framework. The accuracy and effectiveness of our approach are validated through analyses of absolute, relative, and residual errors. We utilize the limit principle at zero to identify the coefficients of the series solution terms, while other methods, including variational iteration, homotopy perturbation, and Adomian, depend on integration. In contrast, the residual power series method uses differentiation, and both approaches encounter difficulties in fractional contexts. Furthermore, the effectiveness of our approach in addressing nonlinear problems without relying on Adomian and He polynomials enhances its superiority over various approximate series solution techniques. © 2024 Khan et al.

BOPD and BOBA represent rare examples of BODIPY-based probes that operate by modulating an intramolecular charge transfer process (ICT), as validated by computational studies. We systematically compared the analytic performance of those recognition units while focusing on selectivity, fluorescence turn-on ratios and response times. Probe BOBA, equipped with OBA as the recognition unit, demonstrated a remarkably low detection limit (i.e., 1.40 nM) and a rapid response time (<10 s) for triphosgene. By comparison, BOPD, featuring an OPD unit, showed superior selectivity towards triphosgene, with a detection limit of 93 nM and a response time of up to 30 s. A portable sensing platform was developed by loading BOPD onto test strips made of TLC plates, nonwoven materials and small-headed cotton swabs, which were assessed for their effectiveness in detecting phosgene. We additionally performed the first successful application of a fluorescent probe, namely BOPD, for monitoring the accumulation of phosgene in plants.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Invasion/Chemotaxis- and Extravasation-Chip Models for Breast Cancer Bone Metastasis(Public Library Science, 2024) Firatligil-Yildirir, Burcu; Bati-Ayaz, Gizem; Nonappa, Devrim; Pesen-Okvur, Devrim; Yalcin-Ozuysal, OzdenBone is one of the most frequently targeted organs in metastatic cancers including the breast. Breast cancer bone metastasis often results in devastating outcomes as limited treatment options are currently available. Therefore, innovative methods are needed to provide earlier detection and thus better treatment and prognosis. Here, we present a new approach to model bone-like microenvironments to detect invasion and extravasation of breast cancer cells using invasion/chemotaxis (IC-) and extravasation (EX-) chips, respectively. Our results show that the behaviors of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells on IC- and EX-chip models correlate with their in vivo metastatic potential. Our culture model constitutes cell lines representing osteoblasts, bone marrow stromal cells, and monocytes embedded in three-dimensional (3D) collagen I-based extracellular matrices of varying composition and stiffness. We show that collagen I offers a better bone-like environment for bone cells and matrix composition and stiffness regulate the invasion of breast cancer cells. Using in situ contactless rheological measurements under cell culture conditions, we show that the presence of cells increased the stiffness values of the matrices up to 1200 Pa when monitored for five days. This suggests that the cellular composition has a significant effect on regulating matrix mechanical properties, which in turn contribute to the invasiveness. The platforms we present here enable the investigation of the underlying molecular mechanisms in breast cancer bone metastasis and provide the groundwork of developing preclinical tools for the prediction of bone metastasis risk.Editorial Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Rna M<sup>6</Sup>a Methylation at the Juxtaposition of Apoptosis and Rna Therapeutics(Cell Press, 2024) Akguel, Buenyamin; Akcaoez-Alasar, Azime; Saglam, BuketTargeting RNA m(6)A marks in apoptosis-related transcripts holds promise for RNA therapeutics.

This genetically encoded fluorescent labeling platform employs FAST mutants that activate the same fluorogen but provide different fluorescence lifetimes for each specific protein-dye pair. All the proposed probes with varying lifetimes possess nearly identical and the smallest-in-class size, along with quite similar steady-state optical properties. In live mammalian cells, we target these chemogenetic tags to two intracellular structures simultaneously, where their fluorescence signals are clearly distinguished by FLIM. Due to the unique structure of certain fluorogens under study, their complexes with FAST mutants display a monophasic fluorescence decay, which may facilitate enhanced multiplexing efficiency by reducing signal cross-talks and providing optimal prerequisites for signal separation upon co-localized and/or spatially overlapped labeling. A genetically encoded labeling system uses smallest-in-class fluorogen-activating protein tags for time-resolved fluorescence multiplexed cellular imaging, offering monoexponential decay and potential for sophisticated fluorescence lifetime analysis.Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 25Topology Degree Results on a G-Abc Implicit Fractional Differential Equation Under Three-Point Boundary Conditions(Public Library Science, 2024) Rezapour, Shahram; Thabet, Sabri T. M.; Rafeeq, Ava Sh.; Kedim, Imed; Vivas-Cortez, Miguel; Aghazadeh, NasserThis research manuscript aims to study a novel implicit differential equation in the non-singular fractional derivatives sense, namely Atangana-Baleanu-Caputo (A B C) of arbitrary orders belonging to the interval (2, 3] with respect to another positive and increasing function. The major results of the existence and uniqueness are investigated by utilizing the Banach and topology degree theorems. The stability of the Ulam-Hyers (U H) type is analyzed by employing the topics of nonlinear analysis. Finally, two examples are constructed and enhanced with some special cases as well as illustrative graphics for checking the influence of major outcomes.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Tumour-Intrinsic Endomembrane Trafficking by Arf6 Shapes an Immunosuppressive Microenvironment That Drives Melanomagenesis and Response To Checkpoint Blockade Therapy(Nature Portfolio, 2024) Wee, Yinshen; Wang, Junhua; Wilson, Emily C.; Rich, Coulson P.; Rogers, Aaron; Tong, Zongzhong; Grossmann, Allie H.Tumour-host immune interactions lead to complex changes in the tumour microenvironment (TME), impacting progression, metastasis and response to therapy. While it is clear that cancer cells can have the capacity to alter immune landscapes, our understanding of this process is incomplete. Herein we show that endocytic trafficking at the plasma membrane, mediated by the small GTPase ARF6, enables melanoma cells to impose an immunosuppressive TME that accelerates tumour development. This ARF6-dependent TME is vulnerable to immune checkpoint blockade therapy (ICB) but in murine melanoma, loss of Arf6 causes resistance to ICB. Likewise, downregulation of ARF6 in patient tumours correlates with inferior overall survival after ICB. Mechanistically, these phenotypes are at least partially explained by ARF6-dependent recycling, which controls plasma membrane density of the interferon-gamma receptor. Collectively, our findings reveal the importance of endomembrane trafficking in outfitting tumour cells with the ability to shape their immune microenvironment and respond to immunotherapy. The small GTPase ARF6 is known to regulate endocytosis and recycling of plasma membrane proteins. Here the authors show that tumourintrinsic ARF6 promotes an immunosuppressive microenvironment that accelerates melanoma progression but that is vulnerable to immune checkpoint blockade, mechanistically linked to ARF6-dependent recycling of interferon-gamma receptors in tumour cells.Review Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 12Trends in Authentication of Edible Oils Using Vibrational Spectroscopic Techniques(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2024) Ozen, Banu; Cavdaroglu, Cagri; Tokatli, FigenThe authentication of edible oils has become increasingly important for ensuring product quality, safety, and compliance with regulatory standards.

This paper reports the sorting of SH-SY5Y cells for neuronal differentiation by the MagLev technique. Herein, SH-SY5Y cells were differentiated with retinoic acid (RA) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Neuronal differentiation was confirmed by neurite extension measurement and the immunostaining assay. Neurites reached the maximum length on day 9 after sequential treatment with RA-BDNF. Neuronal marker expression of un-/differentiated cells was investigated by beta-III tubulin and neuronal nuclei (NeuN) and differentiated cells exhibited a higher fluorescence intensity compared to un-/differentiated cells. MagLev results revealed that the density of differentiated SH-SY5Y cells gradually increased from 1.04 to 1.06 g/mL, while it remained stable at 1.05 g/mL for un-/differentiated cells. These findings signified that cell density would be a potent indicator of neuronal differentiation. Overall, it was shown that MagLev methodology can provide rapid, label-free, and easy sorting to analyze the differentiation of cells at a single-cell level.Review Citation - WoS: 7Gangliosides as Therapeutic Targets for Neurodegenerative Diseases(Hindawi Ltd, 2024) Inci, Orhan Kerim; Basirli, Hande; Can, Melike; Yanbul, Selman; Seyrantepe, VolkanGangliosides, sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids, are abundant in cell membranes and primarily involved in controlling cell signaling and cell communication. The altered ganglioside pattern has been demonstrated in several neurodegenerative diseases, characterized during early-onset or infancy, emphasizing the significance of gangliosides in the brain. Enzymes required for the biosynthesis of gangliosides are linked to several devastating neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP). In this review, we summarized not only the critical roles of biosynthetic enzymes and their inhibitors in ganglioside metabolism but also the efficacy of treatment strategies of ganglioside to address their significance in those diseases.
