    Gaussian-based soft computing approach to alternative banking system for sustainable financial sector
    (Wiley-Hindawi, 2021) Yang, Fan; Kalkavan, Hakan; Dinçer, Hasan; Yüksel, Serhat; Eti, Serkan
    This study aims to identify the necessary strategies for the development of a sustainable financial system. For this purpose, a novel approach could be provided for soft computing with Gaussian-based fuzzy DEMATEL approach to understand the significant levels and impact-relation degrees of these criteria. For robustness check, this evaluation has also been performed for triangular and trapezoidal fuzzy sets. There are many novelties of this study. Firstly, computer science has a significant role in the decision-making process. Another specificity is that the use of Gaussian numbers with fuzzy numbers is a new area. In addition, interval type-2 fuzzy (IT2F) sets also provide a significant advantage in decision-making under uncertainty. The results demonstrate that the size of the alternative financing, investment in efficient projects, and effective advertisement/promotions are the most important items to affect the performance of alternative banking system of emerging economies. Hence, it is recommended that the new banking applications should be applied by the state or the state can provide some incentives for foreign banks to invest in emerging economies, such as tax reduction. Another important point is that the financial intermediations should generate a component financial analysis team to examine the financial reports of the companies in detail so that the financial credibility of these companies can be evaluated more effectively.

    Importance of physiological oxygen levels for endothelial redox signaling using Hyper 7
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2023) Altun, Hamza Yusuf; Yang, Fan; Mann, Giovanni; Eroğlu, Emrah
    Cellular redox status is tightly linked to ambient oxygen levels. Endothelial cells (EC) in vivo are exposed to O2 levels between 3- 13 kPa, yet the majority in vitro studies maintain EC under atmospheric O2 levels (~18 O2). Under 18 kPa O2, EC are exposed to hyperoxia, leading to persistent upregulation of NRF2 regulated antioxidant defences. Exposure of EC to physiological O2 levels for at least 5 days attenuates NRF2-regulated antioxidant gene expression in the absence of HIF-1a stabilisation.

    Nitric oxide biosensor uncovers diminished ferrous iron-dependency of cultured cells adapted to physiological oxygen levels
    (Elsevier B.V., 2022) Sevimli, Gülşah; Smith, Matthew J.; Akgül Çağlar, Tuba; Bilir, Şükriye; Seçilmiş, Melike; Altun, Hamza Y.; Yiğit, Esra N.; Yang, Fan; Keeley, Thomas P.; Malli, Roland; Öztürk, Gürkan; Mann, Giovanni E.; Eroğlu, Emrah
    Iron is an essential metal for cellular metabolism and signaling, but it has adverse effects in excess. The physiological consequences of iron deficiency are well established, yet the relationship between iron supplementation and pericellular oxygen levels in cultured cells and their downstream effects on metalloproteins has been less explored. This study exploits the metalloprotein geNOps in cultured HEK293T epithelial and EA.hy926 endothelial cells to test the iron-dependency in cells adapted to standard room air (18 kPa O2) or physiological normoxia (5 kPa O2). We show that cells in culture require iron supplementation to activate the metalloprotein geNOps and demonstrate for the first time that cells adapted to physiological normoxia require significantly lower iron compared to cells adapted to hyperoxia. This study establishes an essential role for recapitulating oxygen levels in vivo and uncovers a previously unrecognized requirement for ferrous iron supplementation under standard cell culture conditions to achieve geNOps functionality.

    Visualizing hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide dynamics in endothelial cells using multispectral imaging under controlled oxygen conditions
    (2024) Altun, Hamza Yusuf; Seçilmiş, Melike; Yang, Fan; Akgül Çağlar, Tuba; Vatandaşlar, Emre; Toy, Muhammed Fatih; Vilain, Sven; Mann, Giovanni E.; Öztürk, Gürkan; Eroğlu, Emrah
    The complex interplay between hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and nitric oxide (NO) in endothelial cells presents challenges due to technical limitations in simultaneous measurement, hindering the elucidation of their direct relationship. Previous studies have yielded conflicting findings regarding the impact of H2O2 on NO production. To address this problem, we employed genetically encoded biosensors, HyPer7 for H2O2 and geNOps for NO, allowing simultaneous imaging in single endothelial cells. Optimization strategies were implemented to enhance biosensor performance, including camera binning, temperature regulation, and environmental adjustments to mimic physiological normoxia. Our results demonstrate that under ambient oxygen conditions, H2O2 exhibited no significant influence on NO production. Subsequent exploration under physiological normoxia (5 kPa O2) revealed distinct oxidative stress levels characterized by reduced basal HyPer7 signals, enhanced H2O2 scavenging kinetics, and altered responses to pharmacological treatment. Investigation of the relationship between H2O2 and NO under varying oxygen conditions revealed a lack of NO response to H2O2 under hyperoxia (18 kPa O2) but a modest NO response under physiological normoxia (5 kPa O2). Importantly, the NO response was attenuated by L-NAME, suggesting activation of eNOS by endogenous H2O2 generation upon auranofin treatment. Our study highlights the intricate interplay between H2O2 and NO within the endothelial EA.hy926 cell line, emphasizing the necessity for additional research within physiological contexts due to differential response observed under physiological normoxia (5 kPa O2). This further investigation is essential for a comprehensive understanding of the H2O2 and NO signaling considering the physiological effects of ambient O2 levels involved.
