    The objective of this study is to explore the probiotic properties and optimal growth conditions of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum BG24. L. plantarum BG24 exhibited a remarkable ability to utilize lactose, and to grow under acidic conditions and in the presence of high levels of bile salts. The strain showed the highest antibacterial activity against L. monocytogenes Scott A (zone of inhibition: 26 mm). L. plantarum BG24 was found to be resistant to 8 of the tested 19 antibiotics using the disc diffusion method.and its multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) index was calculated as 0.421. The adhesion rate to human intestinal epithelial Caco-2 cells was determined as 37.51%. The enzyme profile of L. plantarum BG24 was investigated using API ZYM test kit and the highest enzymatic activities were found for Leucine arylamidase, beta-glucosidase, Valine arylamidase, beta-galactosidase and N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase. L. plantarum BG24 strain showed higher microbial growth under static conditions (6.60 OD600) compared to 100 rpm (5.73 OD600) and 200 rpm (5.02 OD600) shaking speed due to its facultative anaerobic characteristic. However, different inoculation rates and glucose addition did not make a statistically significant difference on biomass formation (p > 0.05). The specific growth rate of L. plantarum BG24 was 0.416 h(-1), the doubling time was 1.67 h, and the biomass productivity value was 0.14 gL(-1) h(-1) in the original MRS broth (pH 5.7) while higher values were found as 0.483 h(-1), 1.43 h and 0.17 gL(-1) h(-1), respectively, in MRS broth (pH 6.5) medium enriched with 5 g/L yeast extract. The stirred tank bioreactor was used to optimise the growth of BG24 strain. The process variables was optimized at 0.05 vvm of aeration rate, 479 rpm of agitation speed, 3% of inoculation rate and 18 h of incubation time. The maximum biomass (g/L) production was obtained as 3.84 g/L at the optimized conditions.

    Discovery of a Uracil-Derived Small Organic Ligand with Cytotoxic Effect on Human PC-3 Cell Lines via Apoptosis
    (Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, 2024) Poslu, Ayse Halic; Balaban, Rumeysa; Nalbantsoy, Ayse; Ertik, Onur; Cecener, Gulsah; Koz, Omer; Koz, Gamze
    A series of novel 6-amino-5-salicylidene uracils (1-19) were efficiently synthesized from the condensation reaction of 5,6-diamino-1,3-dimethyluracil with substituted salicylaldehydes. The structural characterization of the compounds was performed with spectroscopic methods and elemental analysis. All compounds were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against PC-3 (human prostate adenocarcinoma), A549 (human alveolar adenocarcinoma) and SHSY-5Y (human neuroblastoma) cancer cell lines. 3,5-di-tert-Butylsalicylaldehyde derived salicylideneuracil (6ASU-8) showed promising cytotoxic activity against PC-3 cells with an IC50 value of 1.53 +/- 1.01 mu M, compared to doxorubicin, which had an IC50 value of 3.77 +/- 1.34 mu M. 6ASU-8 induced cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase and promoted apoptosis in PC-3 cells (p<0.05*). Molecular docking results supported the experimental data, indicating that 6ASU-8 is more effective than doxorubicin. Additionally, in silico ADME analysis revealed that 6ASU-8 possesses acceptable predictive physicochemical properties.

    Total Phenolic, Flavonoid, Fatty Acid Contents and Cytotoxic, Antioxidant, and Antimicrobial Activities of Hedysarum aucheri
    (Sciencedomain Int, 2017) Uyar, Zafer; Koz, Ömer; Uyar, Ebru; Arslan, Ulku; Koyuncu, Ismail; Nalbantsoy, Ayse
    In vitro cytotoxic, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities along with total phenolic and flavonoid contents of methanol, hexane, dichloromethane, butanol, and aqueous extracts and chemical composition and fatty acids of n-hexane extract from endemic Hedysarum aucheri were determined. The fatty acid content of the n-hexane extract was determined by GC-MS analysis. Twenty-four out of 39 compounds identified as fatty acid methyl esters constitute 84.20% of hexane extract content. Five of 6 major components were fatty acids, namely alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) (32.37%), palmitic acid (24.69%), linoleic acid (LA) (9.16%), stearic acid (7.11%), Arachidic acid (3.14%), and the other one was an acyclic diterpene alcohol called phytol (12.01%). Butanol extract was found to be the richest in flavonoid (66.3 +/- 1.3 mg QU/g DW) and phenolic (122.4 +/- 1.6 mg GAE/g DW) compounds. Antioxidant activities of the extracts were evaluated by Cupric-ionreducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC), and ABTS radical scavenging capacity. Butanol extract showed the highest antioxidant activity indicating a strong correlation between flavonoid/phenolic content and antioxidant activity. Also, cytotoxic activities of the extracts were evaluated against a panel of cancer cells (PC3, HeLa, CaCo-2, U-87MG, A549, and MCF-7) and normal cell line HEK293. Dichloromethane extract (DCM) exhibited exceptionally high tumor selective cytotoxicity towards cancer cells with IC50 values varying between 0.64 and 24 mu g/mL while not impairing the normal cells. DCM extract was found to possess higher cytotoxic activity towards the tested cancer cells than some anticancer drugs reported in the literature. Also, antimicrobial activities of the extracts were determined by agar disc diffusion and the micro-dilution methods against a series of microorganisms and hexane extract showed the highest antimicrobial activity. We hereby report both the pharmaceutical potential of H. aucheri concerning its various biological activities and the phytochemical composition regarding its total flavonoid, phenolic, and fatty acid content.
