Combination of histone deacetylase inhibitor with Cu(II) 5,5- diethylbarbiturate complex induces apoptosis in breast cancer stem cells: a promising novel approach
Erkısa Genel, Merve; Aztopal, Nazlıhan; Ertürk, Elif; Ulukaya, Engin; Yılmaz, Veysel Turan; Ari, Ferda (2021)Background: Cancer stem cells (CSC) are subpopulation within the tumor that acts a part in the initiation, progression, recurrence, resistance to drugs and metastasis of cancer. It is well known that epigenetic changes ... -
Highly promising antitumor agent of a novel Platinum(II) complex bearing a tetradentate chelating ligand
Yılmaz, İsmail; Akar, Remzi Okan; Erkısa Genel, Merve; Selvi, Selin; Şengül, Abdurrahman; Ulukaya, Engin (Amer Chemical Soc, 2020)A new mononuclear cationic platinum(II) coordination compound with 6,6'-bis(NH-benzimidazol-2-yl)-2,2'-bipyridine (L) ligand having N-4-tetradentate binding pocket [Pt(L)]-Cl-2.2H(2)O (Complex 1) was synthesized and ... -
The improved killing of both androgen-dependent and independent prostate cancer cells by etoposide loaded SPIONs coupled with NIR irradiation
Onbaşlı, Kübra; Demirci, Gözde; Muti, Abdullah; Sennaroğlu, Alphan; Yağcı Acar, Havva; Erkısa Genel, Merve; Ulukaya, Engin (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022)Etoposide (Eto) is a toxic drug that shows promise in treating prostate cancer (PCa) but confers significant side effects, and has poor solubility and bioavailability. Nanoparticles are quite successful in overcoming such ... -

Given the important role of CSCs (Cancer Stem Cells) in cancer, which is a trendy hypothesis, it is worth investigating the ... -
A promising therapeutic combination for metastatic prostate cancer: Chloroquine as autophagy inhibitor and palladium(II) barbiturate complex
Erkısa Genel, Merve; Aydınlık, Şeyma; Cevatemre, Buse; Aztopal, Nazlıhan; Akar, Remzi Okan; Çelikler, Serap; Yılmaz, Veysel Turan; Ari, Ferda; Ulukaya, Engin (Elsevier B.V., 2020)Autophagy is a catabolic process for cells that can provide energy sources and allows cancer cells to evade cell death. Therefore, studies on the combination of autophagy inhibitors with drugs are increasing as a new ... -
Valproic acid, a histone deacetylase inhibitor, induces apoptosis in breast cancer stem cells
Aztopal, Nazlıhan; Erkısa Genel, Merve; Ertürk, Elif; Ulukaya, Engin; Tokullugil, Asuman Hatice; Arı, Ferda (Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2018)Cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) are a cell subpopulation that can reinitiate tumors, resist chemotherapy, give rise to metastases and lead to disease relapse because of an acquired resistance to apoptosis. Especially, ...
