Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Gold Nanoparticle/Silk Fibroin-Based Nanofiber Enhances Skin Regeneration(Oxford University Press, 2025) Özcan, Ozan; Tufan, Elif; Muhan, Aleyna Tanrıverdi; Çalişkan-Ak, Esin; Şener, Göksel; Tunalı-Akbay, Tuǧba; Ak, EsinObjectives The aim of this study was to determine the wound-healing potential of gold nanoparticles and silk fibroin-based nanofiber produced by green chemistry. Methods The electrospinning method was used to prepare the nanofiber. Twenty rats were exposed to a 7-day treatment period and another 20 rats were exposed to a 21-day treatment period. Rat groups were control, silver, silk fibroin, and silk + gold nanoparticle groups for each period. The effect of the gold nanoparticle/silk fibroin-based nanofiber was examined in skin samples by using biochemical and histological analysis. In biochemical analysis, skin oxidant and antioxidant parameters were determined. Key findings Parameters indicating skin damage returned to their previous levels 7 and 21 days after the wound formation using gold nanoparticle/silk fibroin-based nanofiber. Gold nanoparticle/silk fibroin-based nanofiber initiated hair follicle formation at the wound site and accelerated the re-epithelialization process. Conclusions It was found that the nanofiber prepared by adding gold nanoparticles to silk fibroin had better wound-healing properties than silk fibroin nanofibers without gold nanoparticles. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - Scopus: 2Effects Of Exercise And Calorie Restriction On Brain And Testis İn Natural Aging Model;(Istanbul University Press, 2021) Hakgüder, U.; Üstündağ, Ü.V.; Tüzüner, B.A.; Genç, N.; İpekci, H.; Özçelik, R.; Emekli-Alturfan, E.; Kahraman, Nevin Genc; Alev-tuzuner, Burcin; Şener, Göksel; Yarat, AysenThe aim of our study was to examine the effects of exercise and calorie restriction on various tissue damage and antioxidant parameters in the brain and testis of rats in a natural aging model. For this purpose, male Sprague-Dawley rats were the control group (C), the elderly (A), the elderly with calorie restriction (ACR), the elderly who were exercised (AE) and the elderly who were exercised with calorie restriction (ACRE), they were divided into 5 groups. The control group was composed of three-month-old animals. The other group consisted of 15-month-old rats. Exercise and calorie restriction were applied for 6 weeks. At the end of the experiment, lipid peroxidation (LPO), nitric oxide (NO), glutathione (GSH) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione-S-trans-ferase (GST) and tissue factor (TF) were determined in brain and testicular tissues homogenates. As a result of the study, the A group’s brain and testis LPO, NO levels and TF activity increased, GSH levels and SOD, CAT and GST activities decreased, when compared to the C group. As a result of our study, an increase in oxidant damage was observed with TF activity in the brain and testis in the natural aging model, and positive effects of exercise and calorie restriction on the antioxidant levels in the brain were determined, especially in aging. © 2021, Istanbul University Press.
