Doku Mühendisliğine Yönelik Biyobozunur Poli ester üretan Sentezlenmesi Karakterizasyonu ve Biyouyumluluğu

2010-04-24
Polyurethanes (PUs) are able to degrade into harmless molecules upon implantation and have received a significant level of attention as a biomaterial. PUs based on polycaprolactone (PCL) and amino acid derivatives are examples of these polymers. As a potential biomaterial, their biocompatibility coupled with biodegradability attracted attention in tissue engineering applications. In this study, a biodegradable thermoplastic, poly(ester-urethane) based on L-lysine diisocyanate (LDI) and PCL was synthesized. The resulting polymer was fully characterized with nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), FTIR-ATR, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and mechanical test. The surface properties were studied by goniometer and biocompatibility was evaluated using L929 mouse fibroblast cell line. The FTIR-ATR, and NMR results together provide a proof for the synthesis of the polyurethane polymer. According to thermal analysis results, melting temperature and weight loss were found to be around 48 °C and between 300 °C-450 °C, respectively. Cell culture studies showed that the cells attached and proliferated well and had proper morphology on PU films.

Biodegradable poly (ester-urethane) scaffolds for bone tissue engineering
Kızıltay, Aysel; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Department of Biotechnology (2011)
During last decade, polyurethanes (PUs) which are able to degrade into harmless molecules upon implantation have received a significant level of attention as a biomaterial in tissue engineering applications. Many studies are focused especially on development of PUs based on amino acid derivatives; however, there are only few applications of amino acid based PUs in tissue engineering. In this study, a biocompatible and biodegradable thermoplastic poly(ester-urethane) (PEU) based on L-lysine diisocyanate (LDI...
Development and characterization of a tissue engineered multicomponent skin substitute and a skin model
Eke, Gözde; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Department of Biotechnology (2018)
The tissue engineered human skin substitute has the potential to fill large areas of skin loss caused by severe burns or chronic wounds. It can also serve as an alternative skin model to in vivo testing of drugs or cosmetic products. The aim was to construct a tissue engineered full-thickness human skin model mimicking the native tissue. To this end, this model was developed as epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue of the skin. The feasibility of the dermis layer was tested by co-culturing fibroblasts a...
Liposome-encapsulated panomycocin: preparation, characterization and in vitro determination of antifungal efficacy against dermatophytes
Tosun, Kübra; İzgü, Kadri Fatih; Özkan, Yalçın; Department of Biotechnology (2016)
Dermatopytosis is one of the most seen superficial fungal infections in humans resulting mild to severe inflammations. Antifungal drugs are not effective in the treatment of dermatophytosis due to serious adverse effects and resistance developed by fungal pathogens. Thus, the development of safe, naturally derived and potent antifungal/antimycotic agents which do not result in resistance and elicit little or no side effects to mammalian cells with high selectivity to the fungal pathogens is a continuing nee...
Prediction of the effects of single amino acid variations on protein functionality with structural and annotation centric modeling
Cankara, Fatma; Tunçbağ, Nurcan; Department of Bioinformatics (2020)
Whole-genome and exome sequencing studies have indicated that genomic variations may cause deleterious effects on protein functionality via various mechanisms. Single nucleotide variations that alter the protein sequence, and thus, the structure and the function, namely non-synonymous SNPs (nsSNP), are associated with many genetic diseases in human. The current rate of manually annotating the reported nsSNPs cannot catch up with the rate of producing new sequencing data. To aid this process, automated compu...
Investigation of microRNAs on genomic instability regions in breast cancer
Selçuklu, Şadan Duygu; Erson Bensan, Ayşe Elif; Department of Biology (2007)
Genomic instability is commonly seen in breast cancers. To date, various chromosomal or segmental loss or amplification regions have been detected in primary tumors and cell lines. Hence, an intensive search for potent tumor suppressors or oncogenes located in these regions continues. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are ~18-24 nt long non-coding RNAs that regulate protein expression either by target mRNA cleavage or translational repression. We hypothesized that miRNAs located in genomic instability regions in breast ca...
