    Effect of pH and Hydration on the Normal and Lateral Interaction Forces Between Alumina Surfaces
    (2006) Polat, Mehmet; Sato, Kimiyasu; Nagaoka, Takaaki; Watari, Koji
    Normal and lateral interaction forces between alumina surfaces were measured using Atomic Force Microscopy-Colloid Probe Method at different pH. The normal force curves exhibit a well-defined repulsive barrier and an attractive minimum at acidic pH and the DLVO theory shows excellent agreement with the data. The normal forces are always repulsive at basic pH and the theory fails to represent the measurements. Lateral forces are almost an order of magnitude smaller in the basic solutions. These differences, which have important implications in the study of stability and rheology, are attributed to the hydration of the alumina surface at basic pH. © 2013 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Primary Surgery With Systemic Therapy in Patients With De Novo Stage Iv Breast Cancer: 10-Year Follow-Up; Protocol Mf07-01 Randomized Clinical Trial
    (Elsevier, 2021) Soran, Atilla; Özmen, Vahit; Özbaş, Serdar; Karanlık, Hasan; Müslümanoğlu, Mahmut; İğci, Abdullah; Cantürk, Nuh Zafer; Utkan, Zafer; Evrensel, Türkkan; Sezgin, Efe
    Background: The aim of this randomized clinical trial was to evaluate the overall survival (OS) data of patients diagnosed with de novo stage IV breast cancer (BC) who received locoregional treatment (LRT) over a 10-year follow-up. Study Design: The MF07-01 is a 1:1 multicenter, randomized clinical trial comparing the LRT with systemic therapy (ST), where ST was given to all patients either immediately after randomization or after surgical resection of the intact primary tumor. Results: A total of 278 patients were randomized and 265 patients were in the final analysis. At 10-year follow-up, survivals were 19% (95% CI 13%–28%) and 5% (95% CI 2%–12%) in the LRT group and ST group, respectively. Median survival was 46 months for the LRT group and 35 months for the ST group, and hazard of death was 29% lower in the LRT group compared with the ST group (hazard ratio [HR] 0.71; 95% CI 0.59–0.86; p = 0.0003). Conclusions: Patients with a diagnosis of de novo stage IV BC who underwent LRT followed by ST had a 14% higher chance of OS by the end of the 10-year follow-up compared with the patients who received only ST. The longer study follow-up revealed that LRT should be presented to patients when discussing treatment options. © 2021 American College of Surgeons

    Suppression of STAT5A and STAT5B Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Cells Via SiRNA and Antisense-Oligonucleotide Applications With the Induction of Apoptosis
    (Wiley, 2014) Kaymaz, Burcin Tezcanli; Selvi, Nur; Gokbulut, Aysun Adan; Aktan, Cagdas; Gunduz, Cumhur; Saydam, Guray; Kosova, Buket
    Signal transducers and activators of transcription ( STAT) proteins function in the JAK/STAT signaling pathway and are activated by phosphorylation. As a result of this signaling event, they affect many cellular processes including cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, and survival. Increases in the expressions of STAT5A and STAT5B play a remarkable role in the development of leukemia in which leukemic cells gain uncontrolled proliferation and angiogenesis ability. At the same time, these cells acquire ability to escape from apoptosis and host immune system. In this study, we aimed to suppress STAT-5A and -5B genes in K562 CML cells by siRNA transfection and antisense oligonucleotides (ODN) targeting and then to evaluate apoptosis rate. Finally, we compared the transfection efficiencies of these approaches. Quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot results indicated that STAT expressions were downregulated at both mRNA and protein levels following siRNA transfection. However, electroporation mediated ODN transfection could only provide limited suppression rates at mRNA and protein levels. Moreover, it was displayed that apoptosis were significantly induced in siRNA treated leukemic cells as compared to ODN treated cells. As a conclusion, siRNA applications were found to be more effective in terms of gene silencing when compared to ODN treatment based on the higher apoptosis and mRNA suppression rates. siRNA application could be a new and alternative curative method as a supporting therapy in CML patients.
