Immune modulatory effects of pediococcus pentosaceus derived membrane vesicles: mechanism of action and therapeutic applications
Alpdündar Bulut, Esin; Gürsel, Mayda; Department of Biology (2018)
In our previous studies, we characterized 5 different human gram positive commensal bacteria derived membrane vesicles (MVs) and compared their activity with non-pathogenic E.coli derived membrane vesicles. Results showed that commensal bacteria derived MVs had immunomodulatory properties whereas non-pathogenic E.coli derived membrane vesicles had immune stimulatory properties. In this thesis, we aimed to focus our attention to Pediococcus pentosaceus-derived MVs that displayed the highest immunomodulatory ...
Immune system based distributed node and rate selection in wireless sensor networks
Atakan, Baris; Akan, Ozguer B. (2006-12-13)
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are event-based systems that rely on the collective effort of dense deployed sensor nodes. Due to the dense deployment, since sensor observations are spatially correlated with respect to spatial location of sensor nodes, it may not be necessary for every sensor node to transmit its data. Therefore, due to the resource constraints of sensor nodes it is needed to select the minimum number of sensor nodes to transmit the data to the sink. Furthermore, to achieve the application-...
Immune system-based energy efficient and reliable communication in wireless sensor networks
Atakan, Baris; Akan, Oezguer B. (2006-12-01)
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are event-based systems that rely on the collective effort of densely deployed sensor nodes. Due to the dense deployment, since sensor observations are spatially correlated with respect to location of sensor nodes, it may not be necessary for every sensor node to transmit its data. Therefore, due to the resource constraints of sensor nodes, it is imperative to select the minimum number of sensor nodes to transmit the data to the sink.

Biological properties of extracellular vesicles and their physiological functions
Yanez-Mo, Maria; et. al. (2015-01-01)
In the past decade, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been recognized as potent vehicles of intercellular communication, both in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. This is due to their capacity to transfer proteins, lipids and nucleic acids, thereby influencing various physiological and pathological functions of both recipient and parent cells. While intensive investigation has targeted the role of EVs in different pathological processes, for example, in cancer and autoimmune diseases, the EV-mediated maintenance ...
Immune responses against the recombinant FimX and putative peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase from Bordetella pertussis
Yılmaz, Çiğdem; Özcengiz, Gülay; Department of Biology (2011)
Whooping cough (pertussis) is a highly contagious respiratory infection caused by Bordetella pertussis. It becomes widespread among adolescent and adults as well as infants. Although availability of effective pertussis vaccines seems to decrease the incidence of the disease, B. pertussis circulation in population has not been eliminated. It is thought that the antigenic drifts in major protective antigens and continued circulation of B. pertussis strains will result in gradual loss of the efficacy of the cu...
