Article 1,2,4-Triazole Conjugates as HEGFR Inhibitors: Synthesis, Anticancer Evaluation, and in Silico Studies(Wiley-V C H Verlag GmbH, 2026) Bulbul, Bahadir; Kulabas, Necla; Gurboga, Merve; Ozakpinar, Ozlem Bingol; Cakmak, Ummuhan; Tuncay, Fulya Oz; Kucukguzel, IlkayA series of novel 1,2,4-triazole-acetamide derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for anticancer and hEGFR inhibitory activity. The compounds were obtained via multistep synthesis and characterized by spectroscopic methods. Cytotoxicity was tested against PC-3, MCF-7, A549, and K562 cell lines. Compounds <bold>18</bold>, <bold>19</bold>, and especially <bold>24</bold> showed notable antiproliferative effects, with compound <bold>24</bold> exhibiting higher selectivity and potency than gefitinib. It also induced apoptosis and inhibited migration in A549 and PC-3 cells, while selectively promoting invasion in PC-3, suggesting EMT-related behavior. In vitro kinase assays revealed compound <bold>20</bold> as the most potent hEGFR inhibitor (IC50 = 43.8 +/- 1.3 nM). Molecular docking and 200 ns molecular dynamics simulations confirmed its stable interaction with EGFR, particularly involving Cys797. These findings highlight compounds <bold>20</bold> and <bold>24</bold> as promising candidates for further development as EGFR-targeted anticancer agents.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 21Exercise Improves Testicular Morphology and Oxidative Stress Parameters in Rats With Testicular Damage Induced by a High-Fat Diet(Wiley, 2022) Elmas, Merve Acikel; Ozakpinar, Ozlem Bingol; Kolgazi, Meltem; Sener, Goksel; Arbak, Serap; Ercan, FerihaObesity and male infertility are problems that affect population. Exercise is a nonpharmacological way to reduce the negative health effects of obesity. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of exercise on hormone levels, blood-testis barrier, and inflammatory and oxidative biomarkers in rats that became obese due to a high-fat diet (HFD). Male rats received a standard diet (STD group) or a HFD (HFD group) for 18 weeks. During the final 6 weeks of the experiment, swimming exercises (1 h/5 days/week) were given to half of these animals (STD + EXC and HFD + EXC groups). Finally, blood and testicular tissues were analysed by biochemical and histological methods. Body weight, leptin, malondialdehyde, interleukin-6, TNF-alpha and myeloperoxidase levels, apoptotic cells and DNA fragmentation were increased, and testis weight, insulin, FSH, LH, testosterone, glutathione and superoxide dysmutase levels, proliferative cells, ZO-1, occludin, and gap junction protein Cx43 immunoreactivity were decreased in the HFD group. All these hormonal, morphological, oxidative and inflammatory biomarkers were enhanced in the HFD + EXC group. It is thought that exercise protected testicular cytotoxicity by regulating hormonal and oxidant/antioxidant balances and testicular function, inhibiting inflammation and apoptosis, as well as preserving blood-testis barrier.
