Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2Protocol for Determining the Average Speed and Frequency of Kinesin and Dynein-Driven Intraflagellar Transport (IFT) in C. Elegans(Elsevier, 2022-09) Turan, Merve G.; Kantarci, Hanife; Temtek, Sadiye D.; Cakici, Onur; Cevik, Sebiha; Kaplan, Oktay, IHere, we present a protocol to image a fluorescent-labeled intraflagellar trans-port (IFT) component in Caenorhabditis elegans with fluorescence microscopy, including steps of sample preparations, in vivo live-cell imaging, and post -micro-scopy analysis with kymographs. This protocol breaks down all processes into three categories: (1) pre-imaging preparations, (2) preparations for the time of image acquisition, and (3) post-imaging analyses. The protocol can be applied to determine the speed and frequency of moving particles. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Cevik et al.

The morphology and structure of the CONPs were determined using ultraviolet-visible (UV/VIS), attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Crystal purple staining, Annexin V-FITC detection, RT-PCR, P53, and NF-κB luciferase reporter assays were performed to evaluate the mechanism of action of CONPs in breast cancer cell lines (MCF7). The biosynthesized CONPs showed cytotoxic effects and induced apoptosis in MCF7 cells. Furthermore, CONPs induced P53 expression and suppressed NF-κB gene expression, both of which were confirmed using reporter assays. Based on the present results, it was concluded that CONPs can induce apoptosis by acting on P53 at the transcriptional level and may cause cell death by suppressing NF-κB-mediated transcription. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - Scopus: 4CCPred: Global and Population-Specific Colorectal Cancer Prediction and Metagenomic Biomarker Identification at Different Molecular Levels Using Machine Learning Techniques(Elsevier Ltd, 2024-11) Bakir-Güngör, Burcu; Temiz, Mustafa; Inal, Yasin; Cicekyurt, Emre; Yousef, MalikColorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the third most common cancer globally and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Recent research highlights the pivotal role of the gut microbiota in CRC development and progression. Understanding the complex interplay between disease development and metagenomic data is essential for CRC diagnosis and treatment. Current computational models employ machine learning to identify metagenomic biomarkers associated with CRC, yet there is a need to improve their accuracy through a holistic biological knowledge perspective. This study aims to evaluate CRC-associated metagenomic data at species, enzymes, and pathway levels via conducting global and population-specific analyses. These analyses utilize relative abundance values from human gut microbiome sequencing data and robust classification models are built for disease prediction and biomarker identification. For global CRC prediction and biomarker identification, the features that are identified by SelectKBest (SKB), Information Gain (IG), and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) methods are combined. Population-based analysis includes within-population, leave-one-dataset-out (LODO) and cross-population approaches. Four classification algorithms are employed for CRC classification. Random Forest achieved an AUC of 0.83 for species data, 0.78 for enzyme data and 0.76 for pathway data globally. On the global scale, potential taxonomic biomarkers include ruthenibacterium lactatiformanas; enzyme biomarkers include RNA 2′ 3′ cyclic 3′ phosphodiesterase; and pathway biomarkers include pyruvate fermentation to acetone pathway. This study underscores the potential of machine learning models trained on metagenomic data for improved disease prediction and biomarker discovery.
