Publication Metadata only Synthesis and antiproliferative evaluation of novel 2-(4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-ylthio)acetamide derivatives as inducers of apoptosis in cancer cells(ELSEVIER FRANCE-EDITIONS SCIENTIFIQUES MEDICALES ELSEVIER, 2016) ÖZSAVCI, DERYA; Kulabas, Necla; Tatar, Esra; Ozakpinar, Ozlem Bingol; Ozsavci, Derya; Pannecouque, Christophe; De Clercq, Erik; Kucukguzel, IlkayIn this study, a series of thiosemicarbazide derivatives 12-14, 1,2,4-triazol-3-thione derivatives 15-17 and compounds bearing 2-(4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-ylthio)acetamide structure 18-32 have been synthesized starting from phenolic compounds such as 2-naphthol, paracetamol and thymol. Structures and purity of the target compounds were confirmed by the use of their chromatographic and spectral data besides microanalysis. All of the synthesized new compounds 12-32 were evaluated for their anti-HIV activity. Among these compounds, three representatives 18, 19 and 25 were selected and evaluated by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) against the full panel of 60 human cancer cell lines derived from nine different cancer types. Antiproliferative effects of the selected compounds were demonstrated in human tumor cell lines K-562, A549 and PC-3. These compounds inhibited cell growth assessed by MTT assay. Compound 18,19 and 25 exhibited anti-cancer activity with IC50 values of 5.96 mu M (PC-3 cells), 7.90 mu M (A549/ATCC cells) and 7.71 mu M (K-562 cells), respectively. After the cell viability assay, caspase activation and Bcl-2 activity of the selected compounds were measured and the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was detected. Compounds 18, 19 and 25 showed a significant increase in caspase-3 activity in a dose-dependent manner. This was not observed for caspase-8 activity with compound 18 and 25, while compound 19 was significantly elevated only at the dose of 50 mu M. In addition, all three compounds significantly decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential and expression of Bcl-2. (C) 2016 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Guniz; Koc, Derya; Cikla-Suzgun, Pelin; Ozsavci, Derya; Bingol-Ozakpinar, Ozlem; Mega-Tiber, Pinar; Orun, Oya; Erzincan, Pinar; Sag-Erdem, Safiye; Sahin, FikrettinTolmetin hydrazide and a novel series of tolmetin hydrazide-hydrazones 4a-l were synthesized in this study. The structures of the new compounds were determined by spectral (FT-IR, H-1 NMR) methods. N-[(2,6-Dichlorophenyl)methylidene]-2-[1-methyl-5-(4-methylbenzoyl)-1H-pyrrol-2-yl]acetohydrazide (4g) was evaluated in vitro using the MTT colorimetric method against the colon cancer cell lines HCT-116 (ATCC, CCL-247) and HT-29 (ATCC, HTB-38) to determine growth inhibition and cell viability at different doses. Compound 4g exhibited anti-cancer activity with an IC50 value of 76M against colon cancer line HT-29 (ATCC, HTB-38) and did not display cytotoxicity toward control NIH3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells compared to tolmetin. In addition, this compound was evaluated for caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9, and annexin-V activation in the apoptotic pathway, which plays a key role in the treatment of cancer. We demonstrated that the anti-cancer activity of this compound was due to the activation of caspase-8 and caspase-9 involved in the apoptotic pathway. In addition, in this study, we investigated the catalytical effect of COX on the HT-29 cancer line, the apoptotic mechanism, and the moleculer binding of tolmetin and compound 4g on the COX enzyme active site.Publication Metadata only Synthesis and Anticancer Activity of Some Novel Tolmetin Thiosemicarbazides(MARMARA UNIV, FAC PHARMACY, 2015) ÖZSAVCI, DERYA; Dadas, Yakup; Coskun, Goknil Pelin; Bingol-Akpinar, Ozlem; Ozsavci, Derya; Kucukguzel, S.

The structures of the new compounds were determined by spectral (FT-IR, H-1-NMR, C-13-NMR and 2D-NMR) methods and their purity were proven by elemental analysis and TLC. Tolmetin [1] and N-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-{[1-methyl-5-(4-methylbenzoyl)-1H-pyrrol-2- yl] acetyl}hydrazinecarbothioamide [4d] were evaluated for in vitro using the MTT colorimetric method for anticancer activity. Androjen-independed human prostate cancer cell line PC-3 (ATCC, CRL-1435), human colon cancer cell lines HCT-116 (ATCC, CCL-247) and HT-29 (ATCC, HTB-38) were used in this study. Compound 4d exhibited anticancer activity against PC-3 whereas Tolmetin showed minor activity comparing to compound 4d.Publication Metadata only Synthesis, Cytotoxicity, and Pro-Apoptosis Activity of Etodolac Hydrazide Derivatives as Anticancer Agents(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2013) ŞENER, AZİZE; Cikla, Pelin; Ozsavci, Derya; Bingol-Ozakpinar, Ozlem; Sener, Azize; Cevik, Ozge; Ozbas-Turan, Suna; Akbuga, Julide; Sahin, Fikrettin; Kucukguzel, S. GunizEtodolac hydrazide and a novel series of etodolac hydrazide-hydrazones 315 and etodolac 4-thiazolidinones 1626 were synthesized in this study. The structures of the new compounds were determined by spectral (FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HREI-MS) methods. Some selected compounds were determined at one dose toward the full panel of 60 human cancer cell lines by the National Cancer Institute (NCI, Bethesda, USA). 2-(1,8-Diethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydropyrano[3,4-b]indole-1-yl)acetic acid[(4-chlorophenyl)methylene]hydrazide 9 demonstrated the most marked effect on the prostate cancer cell line PC-3, with 58.24% growth inhibition at 105M (10 mu M). Using the MTT colorimetric method, compound 9 was evaluated in vitro against the prostate cell line PC-3 and the rat fibroblast cell line L-929, for cell viability and growth inhibition at different doses. Compound 9 exhibited anticancer activity with an IC50 value of 54 mu M (22.842 mu g/mL) against the PC-3 cells and did not display any cytotoxicity toward the L-929 rat fibroblasts, compared to etodolac. In addition, this compound was evaluated for caspase-3 and Bcl-2 activation in the apoptosis pathway, which plays a key role in the treatment of cancer.Publication Open Access Effects of dapagliflozin in experimental sepsis model in rats(TURKISH ASSOC TRAUMA EMERGENCY SURGERY, 2018) OKUYAN, BETÜL; Kingir, Zehra Betul; Kumral, Zarife Nigar Ozdemir; Cam, Muhammet Emin; Cilingir, Ozlem Tugce; Sekerler, Turgut; Ercan, Feriha; Ozakpinar, Ozlem Bingol; Ozsavci, Derya; Sancar, Mesut; Okuyan, BetulBACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible protective effects of dapagliflozin in an experimental sepsis model in rats. METHODS: Saline (1 mL/kg, p.o.) or dapagliflozin (10 mg/kg, p.o.) was administered to Sprague-Dawley rats for 5 days prior to the surgical procedures. Under anesthesia, sepsis was induced by cecal ligation puncture, while sham control groups underwent laparotomy only. Blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and glucose levels were measured in serum samples and the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), myeloperoxidase (MPO), tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 1 beta, caspase 8, and caspase 9 were determined in tissue samples (kidney, liver, and lung). Histological evaluation was also performed. RESULTS: The administration of dapagliflozin in a sepsis model reduced oxidative stress (MDA), increased antioxidant levels (GSH), and reduced inflammation (MPO) in the kidney (p<0.05). Dapagliflozin also decreased oxidative stress (MDA) in lung tissue and decreased inflammation (MPO) in lung and liver tissue (p<0.05). Caspase 8 and 9 levels in kidney, lung, and liver tissue were increased (p< 0.05) in the dapagliflozin group compared with the sepsis group. According to the histopathological results, sepsis was moderately improved in renal tissue and slightly attenuated in lung and liver tissue with the administration of dapagliflozin. CONCLUSION: Dapagliflozin had a preventive effect on sepsis-induced kidney damage, but the protective effect was mild in lung and liver tissue in the present study.Publication Metadata only Obestatin alleviates subarachnoid haemorrhage-induced oxidative injury in rats via its anti-apoptotic and antioxidant effects(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2013) ŞENER, AZİZE; Ersahin, Mehmet; Ozsavci, Derya; Sener, Azize; Ozakpinar, Ozlem Bingol; Toklu, Hale Zerrin; Akakin, Dilek; Sener, Goksel; Yegen, Berrak C.Objective: The aim was to investigate the putative anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effect of obestatin in a rat model of subarachnoidal haemorrhage (SAH). Methods: To induce SAH, rats were injected with 0.3 mL blood into their cisterna magna. At 48 hours rats were decapitated after neurological examination. Blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability, brain water content, oxidative stress markers and histological analysis were done in brain tissue. Results: The results showed that neurological examination scores were increased in the SAH group and, moreover, BBB permeability was impaired and oedema formed. SAH resulted in increased levels of plasma tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-6 levels and caspase-3 activity. Lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation levels and myeloperoxidase activity were all increased in the brain tissue, with concomitant decreases in antioxidant enzymes. On the other hand, SAH-induced neurological impairment and oxidative brain injury were ameliorated in the obestatin-treated group. Conclusion: The present study provides the first evidence that peripheral administration of obestatin exerts potent anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects in SAH-induced oxidative damage by maintaining a balance in oxidant-antioxidant status through the augmentation of endogenous antioxidants and the inhibition of pro-inflammatory mediators.
