Stem cells originate immune cells through hematopoiesis, and the interplay between the two cell types is required in processes like regeneration. In addition, stem and immune cell anomalies directly affect the organism’s functions, its ability to cope with environmental changes and, indirectly, its role in ecosystem services. However, stem cells and immune cells continue to be considered parts of two branches of biological research with few interconnections between them. This review aims to bridge these two seemingly disparate disciplines towards much more integrative and transformative approaches with examples deriving mainly from aquatic invertebrates. We discuss the current understanding of cross-disciplinary collaborative and emerging issues, raising novel hypotheses and comments. We also discuss the problems and perspectives of the two disciplines and how to integrate their conceptual frameworks to address basic equations in biology in a new, innovative way.

Genome-Scale Networks Link Neurodegenerative Disease Genes to α-Synuclein through Specific Molecular Pathways. KHURANA, V; et. al. (2017-02-22) Numerous genes and molecular pathways are implicated in neurodegenerative proteinopathies, but their inter-relationships are poorly understood. We systematically mapped molecular pathways underlying the toxicity of alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn), a protein central to Parkinson's disease. Genome-wide screens in yeast identified 332 genes that impact alpha-syn toxicity. To "humanize'' this molecular network, we developed a computational method, Transpose Net. This integrates a Steiner prize-collecting approach w...
PageRank-flux On Graphlet-Guided-Network(PRO-GGNet): A Method for Pathway Reconstruction and Multi-Omic Data Integration Arıcı, Kaan; Tunçbağ, Nurcan (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi Enformatik Enstitüsü; 2022-10) The recent advancement of omic technologies provides snapshots of cells, tissues, or patients identifying prominent genes, proteins, metabolites, and small molecules. However, accumulated big data on various omic data types may inherently make diseases or perturbations incomprehensible. Network inference or reconstruction methods map a set of significantly altered proteins/genes/metabolites to a given reference network that is composed of already known relations or interactions. Followingly, the signals fro...
Abiotic stress tolerance and growth responses of transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Kennebec) plants expressing rice Osmyb4 gene AYDIN, GÜLSÜM; Yucel, Meral; Öktem, Hüseyin Avni (2012-09-23) MYB transcription factors are involved in diverse biochemical and physiological processes such as regulation of secondary metabolism, meristem formation, cell morphogenesis and floral and seed development. They are also involved in certain defence and stress responses and in hormone signalling. In the present study, we developed transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Kennebec) expressing Oryza sativa myb4 gene, encoding MYB4 transcription factor, driven by either CaMV35S constitutive promoter or cold i...
MicroRNAs show a wide diversity of expression profiles in the developing and mature central nervous system Erson Bensan, Ayşe Elif (2008-10-01) Since the discovery of microRNAs (miRNAs) in Caenorhabditis elegans, mounting evidence illustrates the important regulatory roles for miRNAs in various developmental, differentiation, cell proliferation, and apoptosis pathways of diverse organisms. We are just beginning to elucidate novel aspects of RNA mediated gene regulation and to understand how heavily various molecular pathways rely on miRNAs for their normal function. miRNAs are small non-protein-coding transcripts that regulate gene expression post-...
Investigation of Multi-task Deep Neural Networks in Automated Protein Function Prediction Rifaioğlu, Ahmet Süreyya; Martin, Maria Jesus; Atalay, Rengül; Atalay, Mehmet Volkan; Doğan, Tunca (2017-07-20) Functional annotation of proteins is a crucial research field for understanding molecular mechanisms of living-beings and for biomedical purposes (e.g. identification of disease-causing functional changes in genes and for discovering novel drugs). Several Gene Ontology (GO) based protein function prediction methods have been proposed in the last decade to annotate proteins. However, considering the prediction performances of the proposed methods, it can be stated that there is still room for significant imp...
