Dinç, Erdem; Dursun, Özer; Yılmaz, Gülsen; Kurt, Akif Hakan; Ayaz, Lokman; Vatansever, Mustafa; Özer, Ömer (Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2021)Purpose: The aim of the present study is to comparatively evaluate the anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects of bone marrow and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) applied subconjunctivally after alkaline ... -
Melatonin metabolites protect human retinal pigment epithelial cells from death caused by oxidative stress
Uras, Ebru; Kılıçaslan, Derya; Kurt, Akif Hakan; Allı, Bilge; Doğaner, Adem (Springer, 2021)This study was aimed to determine the efficacy of 6-hydroxy melatonin and N-acetyl serotoninin protecting human retinal pigment epithelial cells from death brought about by oxidative-stress. The ARPE-19 cells (one of the ... -
Microwave-assisted ultra-fast synthesis of carbon quantum dots from linter: Fluorescence cancer imaging and human cell growth inhibition properties
Eskalen, Hasan; Uruş, Serhan; Cömertpay, Sabahattin; Kurt, Akif Hakan; Özgan, Şükrü (Elsevier, 2020)The water dispersed-fluorescent carbon quantum dots (CDs) were synthesized using microwave-assisted hydrothermal process in the closed system from the waste cotton linter as a new carbon source. This method provided an ... -
A novel donepezil-caffeic acid hybrid: Synthesis, biological evaluation, and molecular docking studies
Kılıçaslan, Derya; Kurt, Akif Hakan; Köse, Muhammet; Çeşme, Mustafa; Güngör, Özge; Öztabağ, Cansu Kara; Doğaner, Adem (Maik Nauka/Interperiodica/Springer, 2023)A novel donepezil-caffeic acid (DP-CA) hybrid molecule was designed, synthesis, and investigated by molecular modeling. Its biological activity and protective effect were investigated by the IR spectroscopy, H-1 and C-13 ... -
Protective effects of pinocembrin and pinostrobin against hydrogen peroxide-induced stress in retina pigment epithelial cells
Kılıçaslan, Derya; Kurt, Akif Hakan; Doğaner, Adem (Springer, 2020)This work was aimed at examining the protective effect of pinocembrin and pinostrobin in retinal pigment epithelial cells exposed to oxidative stress caused by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In the present study, the ARPE-19 ... -
Protective effects of quercetin in combination with donepezil against H2O2-induced oxidative stress in glioblastoma cells
Albayrak, Ahmet; Kurt, Akif Hakan; Kılıçaslan, Derya; Çelik, Mustafa; Öztabağ, Cansu Kara; Doğaner, Adem (Springer, 2023)Polyphenols are natural antioxidants found in the human diet, which are known to have protective effects against neurodegenerative diseases by scavenging free radicals. Recently, combination therapies including cholinesterase ...
