Delayed therapeutic administration of melatonin enhances neuronal survival through AKT and MAPK signaling pathways following focal brain ischemia in mice
Kılıç, Ülkan; Elibol, Birsen; Çağlayan, Ahmet Burak; Beker, Mustafa Çağlar; Beker, Merve; Altuğ Tasa, Burcugül; Uysal, Ömer; Yılmaz, Bayram; Kılıç, Ertuğrul (Springer Nature, 2022)Melatonin has a role in the cell survival signaling pathways as a candidate for secondary stroke prevention. Therefore, in the present study, the coordination of ipsilateral and contralateral hemispheres to evaluate delayed ... -
Dual action of exosomes derived from in vitro A beta toxicity model: The role of age for pathological response
Beker, Merve; Günay, Necmeddin; Sarıkamış, Bahar; Kalkan Çakmak, Rabia; Erçin, Nilüfer; Altıntaş, Mehmet Özgen; Altunay, Serdar; Beker, Mustafa Çağlar; Sarı Ak, Duygu; Kılıç, Ülkan (Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2023)Exosomes released from different cell types of the central nervous system play an essential role in the patho-genesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, we aimed to create an animal model by injecting exosomes ... -
Evidence that activation of P2X7R does not exacerbate neuronal death after optic nerve transection and focal cerebral ischemia in mice
Çağlayan, Berrak; Çağlayan, Ahmet Burak; Beker, Mustafa Çağlar; Yalçın, Esra; Beker, Merve; Keleştemur, Taha; Sertel, Elif; Öztürk, Gürkan; Kılıç, Ülkan; Şahin, Fikrettin; Kılıç, Ertuğrul (Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2017)Conflicting data in the literature about the function of P2X7R in survival following ischemia necessitates the conductance of in-depth studies. To investigate the impacts of activation vs inhibition of the receptor on ... -
Inflammatory cytokines are in action: Brain plasticity and recovery after brain ischemia due to delayed melatonin administration
Kılıç, Ülkan; Elibol, Birsen; Beker, Merve; Altuğ Tasa, Burcugül; Çağlayan, Ahmet Burak; Beker, Mustafa Çağlar; Yılmaz, Bayram; Kılıç, Ertuğrul (W.B. Saunders, 2021)Objectives: Post-ischemic inflammation leads to apoptosis as an indirect cause of functional disabilities after the stroke. Melatonin may be a good candidate for the stroke recovery because of its anti-inflammatory effects. ... -
Lentivirally administered glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor promotes post-ischemic neurological recovery, brain remodeling and contralesional pyramidal tract plasticity by regulating axonal growth inhibitors and guidance proteins
Beker, Merve; Çağlayan, Ahmet Burak; Beker, Mustafa Çağlar; Altunay, Serdar; Karaçay, Reyda; Dalay, Arman; Altıntaş, Mehmet Özgen; Torun Köse, Gamze; Hermann, Dirk M.; Kılıç, Ertuğrul (Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2020)Owing to its potent longterm neuroprotective and neurorestorative properties, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is currently studied in neurodegenerative disease clinical trials. However, little is known ... -
Striatal dopaminergic neurons as a potential target for GDNF based ischemic stroke therapy
Beker, Mustafa Çağlar; Beker, Merve; Çağlayan, Ahmet Burak; Bolat, Busenur; Kılıç, Ülkan; Köse, Gamze; Kılıç, Ertuğrul (Turkey Clinics, 2022)Background/aim: Glial cell-line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a well-known regulatory neurotrophic factor on dopaminergic neurons. Several pathologies have been documented so far in case of any impairment in the ...
