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: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Hepatoprotective Effects of Parsley (petroselinum Crispum) Extract in Rats With Bile Duct Ligation(Elsevier, 2023) Ede, Seren; Özbeyli, Dilek; Erdogn, Omer; Cevik, Ozge; Kanpalta, Fatma; Ercan, Feriha; Senerg, Goksel; Şener, Göksel; Erdoğan, ÖmerBackground and study aims: This study aimed to investigate the possible protective effects of parsley extract (Petroselinum Crispum; PC) against oxidative liver damage caused by bile obstruction in rats. Material and methods: Bile duct ligation (BDL) method was used to induce liver injury in rats. The rats were divided into the three groups each consisting of 8 rats; Sham-operated control (C), bile duct ligated + saline treated (BDL), and BDL + PC treated groups. PC extract was given at a dose of 2 g/kg orally for 28 days. Aspartate amino transferase (AST), alanin amino transferase (ALT), and bilirubin levels were analyzed in sera. In order to determine free radicals in liver injury, luminol and lucigenin chemiluminescence tests used. Oxidative stress was evaluated through superoxide dismutase, glutathione, malondialdehyde, Na+/K+-ATPase and 8-hydroxy guanosine levels. Furthermore, inflammation marker myeloperoxidase, apoptosis marker caspase-3, and fibrosis markers TGF- beta and hydoxyproline were investigated. The liver tissues were also examined for histological evaluations.Results: While PC treatment decreased AST and ALT levels which increased with BDL, oxidant damage parameters also decreased with this treatment. Conclusion: The present study, which is the first research for PC extract on cholestasis induced liver damage, demonstrated that PC extract could be a potential therapeutic agent against liver fibrosis and need further studies.Article Citation - WoS: 1Ameliorative Effects of Myrtus Communis L. Extract Involving the Inhibition of Oxidative Stress on High Fat Diet-Induced Testis Damage in Rats(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Coskunlu, Busra; Koroglu, M. Kutay; Hersek, Irem; Ertas, Busra; Sen, Ali; Sener, Goksel; Ercan, FerihaThe possible protective effects of Myrtus communis L. (MC) extract on a high fat diet (HFD)-induced testicular injury in a rat model were investigated using histological and biochemical methods. Wistar albino rats were divided into three groups: a standard diet control group; a HFD group; and an HFD+MC group. The HFD and HFD+MC groups were fed with a HFD for 16 weeks. MC extract (100 mg/kg) was given orally five days a week to the rats in the HFD+MC group during the last four weeks of the experiment. Leptin, triglyceride, high-density lipoproteins, cholesterol, estrogen, testosterone, LH and FSH were analyzed in blood serum. Sperm parameters were evaluated from the epididymis. Testicular morphology, proliferative, apoptotic and NADPH oxidase-2 (NOX2)-positive cells were evaluated histologically. Testicular oxidative stress parameters were analyzed biochemically. In the HFD group, lipid and hormone profiles were changed, abnormal spermatozoa, degenerated seminiferous tubules with apoptotic and NOX2-positive cells were increased in number, and sperm motility and germinal proliferative cells decreased compared to the control group. Moreover, testicular malondialdehyde, 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine and myeloperoxidase levels increased, whereas glutathione and superoxide dismutase levels decreased in the HFD group compared to the control group. All these histological and biochemical features were ameliorated by MC treatment of HFD-fed rats. In conclusion, HFD caused alterations in sperm parameters and testicular morphology by increasing oxidative damage and apoptosis. MC extract may have potential protective effects by inhibiting oxidative damage.
