Article Citation - WoS: 28Citation - Scopus: 29Revealing Genome-Wide Mrna and Microrna Expression Patterns in Leukemic Cells Highlighted “hsa-Mir as a Tumor Suppressor for Regain of Chemotherapeutic Imatinib Response Due To Targeting Stat5a(SAGE Publications Inc., 2015) Tezcanlı Kaymaz, Burçin; Selvi Günel, Nur; Ceyhan, Metin; Bozok Çetintaş, Vildan; Özel, Buket; Kartal Yandım, Melis; Kıpçak, Sezgi; Aktan, Çağdaş; Adan Gökbulut, Aysun; Baran, Yusuf; Kosova Can, BuketBCR-ABL oncoprotein stimulates cell proliferation and inhibits apoptosis in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). For cure, imatinib is a widely used tyrosine kinase inhibitor, but developing chemotherapeutic resistance has to be overcome. In this study, we aimed to determine differing genome-wide microRNA (miRNA) and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression profiles in imatinib resistant (K562/IMA-3 μM) and parental cells by targeting STAT5A via small interfering RNA (siRNA) applications. After determining possible therapeutic miRNAs, we aimed to check their effects upon cell viability and proliferation, apoptosis, and find a possible miRNAArticle Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3A Novel Natural Product, Kl-21, Inhibits Proliferation and Induces Apoptosis in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Cells(Turkish Society of Hematology, 2015) Adan Gökbulut, Aysun; Yaşar, Mustafa; Baran, YusufObjective: The aims of this study were to examine the cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of KL-21, a novel plant product (produced by naturin natural Products, İzmir, Turkey), on 232B4 chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells and to determine the cytotoxic effects on healthy BEAS-2B human bronchial epithelial cells. Materials and Methods: The cytotoxic effect of KL-21 was determined by MTT cell proliferation assay. Changes in caspase-3 enzyme activity were measured using the caspase-3 colorimetric assay. Changes in mitochondrial membrane potential were determined using the JC-1 dye-based method. Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining was performed to measure the apoptotic cell population. Effects of KL-21 on cell cycle profiles of CLL cells were investigated by flow cytometry. Results: We detected time- and concentration-dependent increases in the cytotoxic effect of KL-21 on 232B4 CLL cells. However, we also showed that, especially at higher concentrations, KL-21 was less cytotoxic towards BEAS-2B healthy cells than towards CLL cells. Annexin-V/PI double staining results showed that the apoptotic cell population increased in 232B4 cells. Increasing concentrations of KL-21 increased caspase-3 enzyme activity and induced loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. KL-21 administration resulted in small increases in the percentage of the cells in the G0/G1 phase while it decreased the S phase cell population up to 1 mg/mL. At the highest concentration, most of the cells accumulated in the G0/G1 phase. Conclusion: KL-21 has a growth-inhibitory effect on 232B4 CLL cells. KL-21 causes apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G0/G1.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 14Enalapril-Induced Apoptosis of Acute Promyelocytic Leukaemia Cells Involves Stat5a(International Institute of Anticancer Research, 2012) Purçlutepe, Özlem; İskender, Güniz; Kiper, Hatice Demet; Tezcanlı, Burçin; Selvi, Nur; Biray Avcı, Çığır; Kosova, Buket; Adan Gökbulut, Aysun; Şahin, Fahri; Baran, Yusuf; Saydam, GürayBackground: In this study, we aimed at evaluating the cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of enalapril on human HL60 acute promyelocytic leukaemia cells and at clarifying the roles of signal transducers and activator of transcription proteins (STATs) on enalapril-induced cell death. Materials and Methods: Cell viability and cytotoxicity tests were conducted by Trypan blue dye exclusion and 2,3-Bis[2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulphophenyl]-2H-tetrazolium-5- carboxanilide inner salt (XTT) assays, respectively. Apoptotic analyses were performed by the AnnexinV-enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) staining method and by fluorescence microscopy. Expression levels of STAT3, -5A and -5B genes were analysed by quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Results: The results showed that enalapril reduced viability and proliferation, and induced apoptosis in HL60 cells in a dose-and time-dependent manner as compared to untreated controls. The expression levels of STAT5A gene were significantly reduced in enalapril-treated HL60 cells as compared to untreated controls. Conclusion: Taken together, all data showed for the first time that enalapril has significant anticancer potential for the treatment of acute premyelocytic leukaemia.Article Citation - WoS: 57Citation - Scopus: 67Resveratrol and Quercetin-Induced Apoptosis of Human 232b4 Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Cells by Activation of Caspase-3 and Cell Cycle Arrest(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2013) Adan Gökbulut, Aysun; Apohan, Elif; Baran, YusufChronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), defined by accumulation of pathogenic B cells, has a very complex biology due to various factors such as inherited, host, and enviromental factors. Recently, finding new therapeutic agents or development of novel treatment strategies have been paid attention. Resveratrol and quercetin, important phytoalexins found in many plants, have been reported to have cytotoxic effects on various types of cancer. In this study, we examined cytotoxic, cytostatic, and apoptotic effects of these two important phenolic compounds on 232B4 human CLL cells. Cytotoxic effects of resveratrol and quercetin were determined by MTT cell proliferation assay. Changes in caspase-3 enzyme activity were measured using caspase-3 colorimetric assay. Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining was performed to measure apoptotic cell population. Effects of resveratrol and quercetin on cell cycle profiles of CLL cells were investigated by flow cytometry. Treatment of CLL cells with resveratrol and quercetin caused dose dependent inhibition of cell proliferation and increased apoptotic cell population through induction of caspase-3 activity. Cell cycle analysis displayed cell cycle arrest mainly in G0/G1 for both polyphenols. Our data, in total, showed for the first time that resveratrol and quercetin might block CLL growth through inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.
