    Synthesis of Some Novel Hydrazide-Hydrazones Derived From Etodolac as Potential Anti-Prostate Cancer Agents
    (Marmara Univ, 2022) Koc, Hande Cevher; Atlihan, Irem; Mega-Tiber, Pinar; Orun, Oya; Kucukguzel, S. Guniz; Tiber, Pinar Mega
    (R,S)-Etodolac [1,8-diethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydrapyrano(3,4-b)indole-1-acetic acid] is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that contains carboxylic acid group with the structure of pyrano[3,4-h]indole. In this study, a series of novel (R,S)-Etodolac derivatives (3a-1) bearing hydrazide-hydrazone moiety were synthesized. The structures of these compounds were characterized by spectral (H-1-NMR and FT-IR analyses) methods. All synthesized compounds were screened for anticancer activity against androgen-independent prostate adenocarcinoma (PC-3, DU-145) and androgen-dependent prostate adenocarcinoma (LNCaP) cell lines by using WST-8 colorimetric method. This method was used for cell viability and cytotoxicity analysis. Compound 3b (SGK-720) [2-(1,8-diethyl-1,3,4,9-tetrahydropyrano[3,4-b]indole-1-yl)acetic acid[(2,6-dichlorophenyl)methylene]hydrazides] showed 10.36, 5.24, 15.53 mu M anticancer activity against PC3, DU145, LNCaP cancer cell lines, respectively. According to JC-1 mitochondrial membrane potential test and Annexin V/PI staining, 3b was found to have apoptotic effect on these cancer cells. It is concluded that compound 3b containing 2,6-dichloro substituents may be one of the candidate molecules to cope with prostate cancer.

    Investigation of the Protective and Therapeutic Efficacy of <i>myrtus Communis</I> Extract in Aluminum Chloride and Dgalactose-Induced Alzheimer's Disease in Rats
    (Marmara Univ, 2022) Yalman, Kiibra; Sen, Ali; Cevik, Ozge; Kadioclu-Yaman, Beril; Ertas, Biiva; Yildiz, Sila; Sener, Goksel; Yaman, Beril Kadıoğlu; Kadioğlu-Yaman, Beril
    This study investigated the possible protective and therapeutic effects of Myrtus communis subsp. communis ethanol extract (MC) in aluminum chloride (AlCl3) and D-galactose (D-Gal) induced Alzheimer's disease in rats. MC was orally given to rats as a protective treatment for 90 days and, in other two groups starting from the 60th day MC (100-200 mg/kg) was administered, concomitantly with AlCl3 and D-Gal. Learning and memory functions were evaluated by the behavioral tests. Biological activities of MC treatment were examined in hippocampal tissues by ELISA tests. D-Gal and AlCl3-treated rats showed increased amyloid beta (A ss) and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8OHdG) levels, acetylcholinesterase activity and decreased neprilysin, Na+-K+ATPase and SOD levels in parallel with a decrease in Novel Object Recognition Test, Morris Water Maze and Passive Avoidance Test scores. On the other hand, MC administration reversed the behavioral impairments and improved learning and memory. Moreover, MC treatment decreased A ss and 8-OHdG levels and acetylcholinesterase activity and increased neprilysin levels, Na+-K+ATPase and SOD levels. Our results suggest that MC has beneficial effects on cognitive and neuronal functions through its anticholinesterase and antioxidant properties.

    (Marmara Univ, 2022) Alev-Tuzuner, Burcin; Genc-Kahraman, Nevin; Ipekci, Hazal; Ustundag, Unsal Veli; Tunali-Akbay, Tugba; Emekli-Alturfan, Ebru; Yarat, Aysen; Alturfan, Ebru Emeklı; Akbay, Tugba Tunalı
    Caloric restriction (CR) and exercise (EX) have impacts on improving metabolic risk factors. This study aimed to investigate the changes in the brain after EX and/or CR in metabolic syndrome (MeS) induced by a high fructose diet in rats. Sprague-Dawley male rats were divided into five groups. Drinking water including 10% fructose solution was given to rats for 12 weeks to develop a MeS rat model. Animals with MeS were submitted to EX and/or CR for 6 weeks. Blood glucose, and brain tissue damage and antioxidant parameters were measured. Brain lipid peroxidation, sialic acid, mucin, fucose levels increased in the MeS group compared to the control (C) group. These parameters reduced significantly in the metabolic syndrome with caloric restriction (MeS+CR) group, and more significantly in the metabolic syndrome with exercise and caloric restriction group (MeS+EXCR), compared to the MeS group. Glutathione levels, superoxide dismutase and catalase activities decreased in the MeS group compared to the C group, increased both in the MeS+CR group, and MeS+EXCR group compared to the MeS group. High fructose diet consumption can lead to brain tissue damage and decreased antioxidant levels were found to be improved best in the MeS+EXCR group.
