    (Elsevier, 2020) Ozturk, Ismail; Tuncel, Ayca; Yurt, Fatma; Biyiklioglu, Zekeriya; Ince, Mine; Ocakoglu, Kasim
    Antimicrobial resistance is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality in the treatment of infectious diseases worldwide. Candida albicans is one of the most virulent and common species of fungi to cause invasive fungal infections on humans. Alternative treatment strategies, including photodynamic therapy, are needed for controlling these infectious diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the antifungal photodynamic activities of phthalocyanine derivatives on C. albicans. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of compounds were determined by the broth microdilution method. Uptake of the compounds in C. albicans and dark toxicity of the compounds were also investigated. Photodynamic inhibition of growth experiments was performed by measuring the colony-forming unit/mL (CFU/mL) of the strain. Maximum uptake into the cells was observed in the presence of 64 mu g/mL concentration for each compound except for ZnPc. Compounds did not show dark toxicity/inhibitory effects at sub-MIC concentrations on C. albicans when compared to the negative control groups. Zn(II)Pc, ZnPc, and ZnPc-TiO2 showed fungicidal effect after irradiation with the light dose of 90 J/cm(2) in the presence of the compounds. In addition to the fungicidal effects, SubPc, SubPc-TiO2, Es-SiPc, and Es-SubPc compounds were also found to have inhibitory effects on the growth of yeast cells after irradiation.

    Nuclear imaging potential and in vitro photodynamic activity of Boron subphthalocyanine on colon carcinoma cells
    (Elsevier, 2020) Yurt, Fatma; Arslan, Tayfun; Biyiklioglu, Zekeriya; Tuncel, Ayca; Ozel, Derya; Ocakoglu, Kasim
    Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been a promising clinical agent in various types of cancer in recent years. In this study, in vitro nuclear imaging and PDT potential of Es-SubPc (Boron subphthalocyanine) were evaluated in colon adenocarcinoma cell line (HT-29) and human healthy lung fibroblast cell line (WI-38). For this purpose, the Es-SubPc was labeled with I-131 using the iodogen method under the optimum conditions resulting in labeled with high yield (98.9 +/- 1.2%). In addition, the uptake rate of I-131-Es-SubPc was determined in HT-29 and WI-38 cell lines. In comparison to the healthy cell line, the uptake of 131I-Es-SubPc was found to be 2-fold higher in the HT-29 cell line. For PDT studies, both cells were exposed to white light at 30-90 J/cm(2) in the presence of Es-SubPc. The results showed that Es-SubPc was a good PDT agent likely to be used in HT-29 cell line. As a result, Es-SubPc can be promising nuclear imaging and PDT agent for colon carcinoma.

    Synthesis and antimicrobial photodynamic activities of axially {4-[(1E)-3-oxo-3-(2-thienyl)prop-1-en-1-yl]phenoxy} groups substituted silicon phthalocyanine, subphthalocyanine on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2019) Biyiklioglu, Zekeriya; Ozturk, Ismail; Arslan, Tayfun; Tuncel, Ayca; Ocakoglu, Kasim; Hosgor-Limoncu, Mine; Yurt, Fatma
    Today, the problem of antimicrobial resistance is the most important cause of morbidity and mortality in the treatment of infectious diseases worldwide. Therefore, alternative treatment strategies are important for controlling infectious diseases. In the basic principle of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT), when harmless light at the appropriate wavelength absorbed by the photosensitizer, undergoes a transition from a ground state to a triplet state. The triplet state photosensitizer can interact with enzym and substrate molecules to produce free radicals and radical ions, or with molecular oxygen resulting in the generation of singlet oxygen which leads to cell cytotoxicity of the microorganism. For this purpose, axially {4-[(1E)-3-oxo-3-(2-thienyl) prop-1-en-1-yl] phenoxy} group substituted silicon phthalocyanine (Es-SiPc) and subphthalocyanine (Es-SubPc) were synthesized by reaction of SiPcCl2, SubPcCl with (2E)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-(2-thienyl)prop-2-en-1-one in the presence of NaH in toluene. The new Es-SiPc and Es-SubPc were characterized by standard spectroscopy methods. The effects of aPDT in the presence of phthalocyanines were investigated against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) strains. Also, singlet oxygen generation of Es-SiPc and Es-SubPc were investigated. Our results suggest that the aPDT in the presence of newly synthesized Es-SiPc and Es-SubPc has promising antibacterial effects on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

    Synthesis of axially disubstituted silicon phthalocyanines and investigation of their in vitro cytotoxic/phototoxic anticancer activities
    (World Sci Publ Co Inc, 2021) Yurt, Fatma; Saka, Ece Tugba; Biyiklioglu, Zekeriya; Tuncel, Ayca; Ozel, Derya; Ocakoglu, Kasim
    In this study, two SiPcs have been selected and the photodynamic therapy potentials were evaluated of the Pcs. Synthesis of Axially 2-decyn-1-oxy disubstituted Es-SiPc-2 was newly synthesized by the reaction of SiPcCl2 with 2-decyn-1-ol in the presence of NaH in toluene. Furthermore, their nuclear imaging potentials were evaluated in human colon adenocarcinoma (HT-29) and human lung fibroblast cell (WI-38) cell lines. The uptake results have indicated that Es-SiPc labeled with I-131 radionuclide (I-131-Es-SiPc) was approximately 2-fold higher in the HT-29 cell line than the WI-38 cell line. In other words, the target/non-target tissue ratio is defined as two in the HT-29/WI-38 cell lines. Besides, the uptake values of I-131-Es-SiPc were found to be higher than I-131-Es-SiPc-2. I-131-Es-SiPc and I-131-Es-SiPc-2 are promising for imaging or treating colon adenocarcinoma. In vitrophotodynamic therapy (PDT) studies have shown that both compounds are suitable and can be used in this field. Also, Es-SiPc has been shown to have higher phototoxicity than Es-SiPc-2.
