Publication Metadata only Synthesis of Diflunisal Thiazolidinones as Anticancer Agents(BENTHAM SCIENCE PUBL LTD, 2016) ŞENER, AZİZE; Senkardes, Sevil; Ozakpinar, Ozlem B.; Ozsavci, Derya; Sener, Azize; Cevik, Ozge; Kucukguzel, S. GunizA series of diflunisal 4-thiazolidinones were synthesized. Some selected compounds were determined at one dose towards the full panel of 60 human cancer cell lines by National Cancer Institute. 2',4'-Difluoro-4-hydroxy-N-[4-oxo-2-(thiophen-2-yl)-1,3-thiazolidin-3-yl]biphenyl-3-carboxamide (4a) demonstrated the most marked effect on K-562 cancer cell line with 58.59 % growth inhibition at 10 mu M. Compound 4a was evaluated in vitro using the MTT colorimetric method against human leukemia cell line K-562 and mouse embryonic fibroblasts cell line NIH-3T3 at different doses for cell viability and growth inhibition. Compound 4a exhibited anticancer activity with IC50 value of 5.2 mu M against K-562 cells and did not display cytotoxicity towards NIH-3T3 cells compared with diflunisal. In addition, this compound could be an interesting prototype as an antiproliferative agent.Publication Open Access New in vitro effects of clopidogrel on platelets in hyperlipidemic and healthy subjects(GALENOS YAYINCILIK, 2010-06-01) ŞENER, AZİZE; Ozsavci, Derya; Sener, Azize; Oba, Rabia; Demirel, Guelderen Yarukkaya; Uras, Fikriye; Yardimci, Turay KevserObjective: We aimed to detect novel in vitro effects of clopidogrel on platelets by assessment of the following parameters: malondialdehyde, glutathione, nitrite, aggregation response, and expressions of P-selectin, fibrinogen, apolipoprotein A1, apolipoprotein B, and phosphatidylserine. Materials and Methods: Platelets were obtained from healthy (n: 9) and hyperlipidemic (n: 9) volunteers. Expressions of P-selectin, fibrinogen, apolipoproteins A1/B and phosphatidylserine with and without clopidogrel were assayed by flow cytometry. Malondialdehyde, glutathione, aggregation and nitrite levels were also assayed. Results: Without clopidogrel, the baseline values of platelet aggregation, malondialdehyde, and expressions of P-selectin, fibrinogen and phosphatidylserine were significantly higher, whereas nitrite and expression of apolipoproteins A1/B were significantly lower in hyperlipidemics than in the healthy group. In both groups, clopidogrel significantly reduced aggregation and expression of fibrinogen, but it elevated nitrite levels. Clopidogrel significantly decreased P-selectin and phosphatidylserine expression and malondialdehyde but increased expressions of apolipoproteins A1/B only in hyperlipidemics. Conclusion: It seems that clopidogrel has some new in vitro antiplatelet effects. The present study is a basic in vitro study to suggest new insights into the effects of clopidogrel on platelet functions. (Turk J Hematol 2010; 27: 99-108)
