Kuş, Gökhan; Özkurt, Mete; Kabadere, Selda; Erkasap, Nilüfer; Göğer, Gamze; Demirci, Fatih (Comenius University, 2018)OBJECTIVES: Nigella sativa oil and thymoquinone were comparatively tested in vitro for their effects on human cancer cell lines (glioma, T98; prostate, LnCaP) as well as mouse embryonic fi broblast cell lines (3T3), and ... -
Comparison of a ceramidase inhibitor (ceranib-2) with C2 ceramide and cisplatin on cytotoxicity and apoptosis of glioma cells
Kuş, Gökhan; Özkurt, Mete; Öztopçu Vatan, Pınar; Erkasap, Nilüfer; Uyar, Ruhi; Kabadere, Selda (Tubitak Scientific & Technical Research Council Turkey, 2018)Inhibiting ceramidase activity in cancer cells has been identified as a promising target for cancer therapy in recent studies. Thus, we examined the possible role of ceranib-2, a novel ceramidase inhibitor, on growth and ... -
Cytotoxic and Apoptotic Functions of Licofelone on Rat Glioma Cells
Kuş, Gökhan; Öztopçu-Vatan, Pınar; Uyar, Ruhi; Kabadere, Selda (Akademiai Kiado Zrt, 2013)Gliomas are the largest group of central nervous system tumors and despite of clinical treatments death rate is very high. Inhibition of both cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways that take role in arachidonic acid ... -
Effects of ceranib-2 on cell survival and TNF-alpha in colon cancer cell line
Başpınar, Mustafa Serhat; Özyurt, Rumeysa; Kuş, Gökhan; Kutlay, Özden; Özkurt, Mete; Erkasap, Nilüfer; Kabadere, Selda (Comenius University, 2017)OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a novel anti-cancer drug, ceranib-2, which targets the acid ceramidase, in human colon cancer cell line. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The cell lines were treated ... -
Erythropoietin Protects the Kidney by Regulating the Effect of TNF-alpha in L-NAME-Induced Hypertensive Rats
Özkurt, Mete; Uzuner, Kubilay; Erkasap, Nilüfer; Kuş, Gökhan; Özyurt, Rumeysa; Uysal, Onur; Kutlay, Özden (Karger, 2018)Background/Aims: Hypertension is the leading cause of death worldwide. Chronic high blood pressure induces inflammation. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha plays a major role in inflammation and also depresses the synthesis ... -
Examining impacts of ceranib-2 on the proliferation, morphology and ultrastructure of human breast cancer cells
Vejselova, Djanan; Kutlu, Hatice Mehtap; Kuş, Gökhan (Springer, 2016)Acid ceramidases are enzymes with a vital role in metabolizing ceramide to sphingosine-1-phosphate that is an antiproliferative metabolite in the ceramide pathway. Inhibition of exogenous ceramides with ceramidase inhibitors ... -
Indomethacin based new triazolothiadiazine derivatives: Synthesis, evaluation of their anticancer effects on T98 human glioma cell line related to COX-2 inhibition and docking studies
Sever, Belgin; Altıntop, Mehlika Dilek; Kuş, Gökhan; Özkurt, Mete; Özdemir, Ahmet; Kaplancıklı, Zafer Asım (Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2016)In the current work, new 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazine derivatives (1-8) were synthesized via the ring closure reaction of 2-bromoacetophenone derivatives with 4-amino-5-[(5-methoxy-2-methyl-1(4-chlorobenzoyl)- ... -
Induction of apoptosis in prostate cancer cells by the novel ceramidase inhibitor ceranib-2
Kuş, Gökhan; Kabadere, Selda; Uyar, Ruhi; Kutlu, Hatice Mehtap (Springer, 2015)Ceramidases are key enzymes that decrease ceramide levels in cells. A reduction in ceramide concentration impairs ceramide signalling, and results in apoptosis resistance in cancer cells. This study investigates the potential ... -
The investigation of ceranib-2 on apoptosis and drug interaction with carboplatin in human non small cell lung cancer cells in vitro
Yıldız-Özer, Merve; Öztopçu-Vatan, Pınar; Kuş, Gökhan (Springer, 2018)Ceramide is found to be involved in inhibition of cell division and induction of apoptosis in certain tumour cells. Ceranib-2 is an agent that increases ceramide levels by inhibiting ceramidase in cancer cells. Therefore, ... -
Licofelone abolishes survival of carcinogenic fibroblasts by inducing apoptosis
Kabadere, Selda; Kuş, Gökhan; Uyar, Ruhi; Öztopçu-Vatan, Pınar (Informa Healthcare, 2014)Dual inhibitors of cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways of arachidonic acid metabolism prevent cancer development and induce apoptosis. One of the most promising compounds that blocks both of these pathways ... -
