Biomechanical and histological outcome of combined raloxifene-estrogen therapy on skeletal and reproductive tissues
Tasci, Arzu; BİLGİLİ, HASAN; Altunay, Hikmet; Gecit, Mehmet Rusen; Keskin, Dilek (Elsevier BV, 2010-02-10)
Estrogen replacement is a potent therapy for postmenopausal osteoporosis. However, its carcinogenic effects on breasts and the uterus limit its utilization. Raloxifene has estrogen-like effects on bones without the carcinogenic symptoms on breast or uterine tissue. Their individual effects are well characterized, but the results of their interaction remains elusive. In this work, we investigate the consequences of a combined raloxifene/estrogen therapy on bone and uterus with experimental osteoporosis. 40 W...
Cytotoxicity of freeze dried EGFR targeted immunoliposome containing celecoxib against overexpressing EGFR and COX-2 colon cancer cell lines and its stability and functional analysis after storage
Banerjee, Sreeparna; Tezcaner, Ayşen(2015-12-31)
In this project, we propose to design EGFR targeted immunoliposome containing celecoxib and use freeze drying as a mean to stabilize it under storage conditions. The mean size, retention of encapsulated materials will be evaluated before lyophilization and after rehydration from storage condition upon its application. In order to show that EGFR antibody of lyophilized immunoliposome maintain its binding activity on the target cell upon rehydration, we will be measuring the extent of immunoliposome internali...
Differential expressions and functions of phosphodiesterase enzymes in different regions of the rat heart
DERİCİ, MEHMET KÜRŞAT; SADİ, GÖKHAN; Cenik, Basar; Güray, Nülüfer Tülün; DEMİREL YILMAZ, EMİNE (Elsevier BV, 2019-02-05)
Phosphodiesterase enzymes (PDEs) are responsible for the adjustment of cyclic nucleotide levels. Alterations in PDE expressions in different tissues cause conflicts between functional and clinical effects of PDE inhibitors. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the gene and protein expressions and the functional role of PDEs in atrium and ventricle of rat heart The expressions of PDEs were examined in cardiac intact tissues and enzymatically isolated cells. The effects of PDE1-5 inhibitors (vi...
Determining the role of mutation load in mammalian senescence
Somel, Mehmet; Özer, Füsun; Turan, Zeliha Gözde; Koptekin, Dilek; Ghalichi, Ayshin(2016-12-31)
In most multicellular species, aging is accompanied by an increasing risk of disease and mortality, a process termed senescence. The evolutionary causes and genetic bases of senescence are little understood. Senescence is usually associated with accumulating cellular damage, although a number of theories suggest that harmful mutations that are expressed only at late age could also contribute to the aging phenotype. Analyzing primate brain transcriptome data, we recently identified a pattern that would suppo...
Biomechanics of porous ceramic implants used in long-bones segmental defect healing
Balçık, Cenk; Tokdemir, Turgut; Korkusuz, Feza; Department of Engineering Sciences (2002)
Reconstruction of bone in segmental defect is a challenging orthopedic application in which nonunion is seen due to loss of tissue and atrophic bonding inability. Calcium and phosphate based ceramics are the new generation of bone grafts to be used in large segmental defects as they show excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability and osteoconductivity. Ideal ceramic composition, configuration and material property compatible to cortical bone is yet to be determined. It is hypothesized that long-bones segm...
