Öğe ADIPOSE TISSUE DERIVED STEM CELLS AND THEIR USES IN PLASTIC SURGERY(Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2013) Gundeslioglu, A. Ozlem; Altuntas, Zeynep; Ince, Bilsev; Dadaci, Mehmet; Aktan, Murad; Duman, SelcukStem cell treatments have become one of the most studied area in recent years and and it is seen that they will take the place of organ transplants in the future. Adipose tissue derived stem cells are also widely used by other branches outside of Plastic Surgery as they can easily be obtained in large quantities and effective as much as haemopoetic stem cells. Publications related to soft tissue augmentation, wound healing, and tissue engineering have been reported in plastic surgery practice. However, there are still some question marks about their reliability and lack of standardization for obtaining and using stem cells. The purpose of this review is to give knowledge about the concept of fat tissue derived stem cells, their properties, their mechanisms, also their uses in Plastic Surgery and discuss reliability of them.Öğe Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Levels in Mesenchymal Stem Cell Culture Fluid Under Different Culture Conditions(Aves, 2023) Cicek, Gulsemin; Cicek, Muharrem; Ozen, Emine Utlu; Aktan, T. Murad; Ozdengul, Faik; Duman, SelcukObjective: Mesenchymal stem cells are used in various fields, such as cellular therapy, regeneration, or tissue engineering. It has been shown that they exhibit many protective factors and also work as a modulating chief within the region in which they are administered. There are studies on both the therapeutic and neuroprotective effects of brain-derived neurotrophic factor. Also, there are many studies on the improvement of culture conditions for in vitro reproduction of mesenchymal stem cells, which can be obtained from many sources in various bodies, such as adipose tissue and Wharton's jelly. Improving and standardizing these culture conditions will increase the effectiveness and reliability of stem cell therapies. Studies evaluating many culture conditions, such as O-2 level, type of medium, monolayer culture, and the transition from in vitro 3D models, are ongoing. Materials and Methods: In our study, groups were formed by using stem cells originating from adipose tissue and Wharton's jelly. Stem cell cultures were made using Hillex-II and Pronectin-F microcarriers. Cell culture O-2 level was adjusted as 1% and 5% for each group separately. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to analyze brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels in stem cell culture fluid. Results: The highest brain-derived neurotrophic factor level in mesenchymal stem cells culture medium was observed in an adipose-derived stem cell culture with an in vitro fertilization (non-treated) dish, using a Hillex microcarrier in a 1% O 2 microenvironment. Conclusion: As a result of our observations, we think that cells could exhibit greater therapeutic potential in a dynamic adhesion environment.Öğe THE EFFECT OF ADIPOSE TISSUE STROMAL VASCULAR FRACTION COMBINED WITH PLATELET-RICH PLASMA ON IRRADIATION-INDUCED CAPSULAR CONTRACTURE AROUND SILICONE IMPLANTS(Medknow Publications & Media Pvt Ltd, 2014) Gundeslioglu, Ayse Ozlem; Inan, Irfan; Tezcan, Yilmaz; Toy, Hatice; Emlik, Dilek; Aktan, Murad; Duman, SelcukThe exact reason and pathogenesis of capsule formation around breast implant after cosmetic and reconstructive breast enhancement is still unclear. However, recent studies and clinical observations regarding the application of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells around implanted biomaterials have shown encouraging results. In this study, the effects of the adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction combined with platelet-rich plasma on capsule formation around silicone implants were investigated in irradiated rats. After implantation of silicones implants bilaterally on the rat dorsal area, both sides were irradiated with 10-Gy as single fraction electron beam irradiation. Following radiation, the mixture of stromal vascular fraction and platelet-rich plasma was injected to right sides of the animals. Left sides were injected with same amount of saline as a control. On day 30, capsule around the implants was evaluated in regarding the capsular thickness by ultrasonography, histopathology and immunohistochemical examination. The results demonstrated that there is no statistically significant difference between the treated and non-treated groups in ultrasonographic, histopathologic, and immunohistochemical evaluations. These preliminary results demonstrated that adipose-derived stem cells with platelet rich plasma do not have efficiency for integration of tissue and silicone implants and to reduce capsule formation and further studies are requiredÖğe The Effects of Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Originating Exosomes on Nerve Allograft Regeneration An Experimental Study in Rats(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2023) Koplay, Tugba Gun; Yildiran, Gokce; Dursunoglu, Duygu; Aktan, Murad; Duman, Selcuk; Akdag, Osman; Karamese, MehtapIntroductionNerve regeneration has been the subject of many studies because of its complex mechanism and functional outcome. Mesenchymal stem cells and exosomes are promising factors in regeneration in many areas. Reconstruction of nerve defects is a controversial issue, and nerve allografts are promising alternatives with many advantages. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the nerve regeneration in cellularized and decellularized nerve allografts and whether it is possible to accelerate this process with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ad MSC) or ad MSC-originating exosomes.MethodThis study was performed with 36 Lewis and 18 Brown Norway isogenic male rats aged 10 to 12 weeks and weighing 300 to 350 g. The Lewis rats were divided into 6 groups. Nerve allografts at a length of 12 mm that were obtained from the Brown Norway rats' proximal portion of both sciatic nerve branching points were coapted as cellularized in group A and decellularized in group B to the sciatic nerve defects of the Lewis rats. Group A received oral tacrolimus (0.2 mg/kg) for 30 days. Perineural saline (A1-B1), ad MSC (A2-B2), or ad MSC-originating exosomes (A3-B3) were applied to these groups. Walking track analysis, pinch-prick test and electromyelography were applied at the 8th and 16th weeks following surgery. Nerves were examined histopathologically at the 16th week.ResultsBetween cellularized groups, better results were shown in A3 about axon-myelin regeneration/organization (P = 0.001), endoneural connective tissue (P = 0.005), and inflammation (P = 0.004). Better results were shown in the B2 and B3 groups electromyelographicaly about latency period (P = 0.033) and action potential (P = 0.008) at late period, and histomorphologicaly at vascularization (P = 0.012).DiscussionIt is argued that regeneration is accelerated with decellularization of nerve allografts by removing the chondroidin sulfate proteoglycans. The positive effects of stem cells are derived by exosomes without the cell-related disadvantages. In this study, better results were obtained by decellularization and perineural application of ad MSC and/or ad MSC exosome.Öğe Effects of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells and Platelet-Rich Plasma for Prevention of Alopecia and Other Skin Complications of Radiotherapy(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2021) Evin, Nuh; Tosun, Zekeriya; Aktan, Tahsin Murad; Duman, Selcuk; Harmankaya, Ismail; Yavas, GulerBackground Radiotherapy (RT) involves the use of ionizing radiation in treating malignancies and benign disorders. However, RT damages target and healthy surrounding tissues in a dose-dependent manner. This effectively reduces patient compliance and quality of life, thereby warranting the prevention of RT-induced adverse effects on skin. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are used to treat RT-induced damage and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) provides a scaffold that potentiates the effects of ASCs. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine the mechanism employed by ASCs and PRP in protecting against RT-induced adverse effects. Methods We have established an immunodeficient mouse transplantation model using which human hair follicular units were implanted. When the follicular units were macroscopically and microscopically mature and anagenic, we administered localized RT. Subsequently, the mice were randomly divided into 4 groups based on the subcutaneous injection of the following to the irradiated transplantation site: saline, PRP, ASCs, and a combination of ASCs and PRP. Next, we used macroscopic and microscopic analyses to determine the protective effects of the injected solutions on skin and hair follicles. Results Adipose-derived stem cells reduced RT-induced adverse effects, such as impaired wound healing, alopecia, skin atrophy, and fibrosis by suppressing inflammation, dystrophy, degeneration, connective tissue synthesis, and apoptosis and increasing cellular proliferation, differentiation, and signaling. Moreover, these effects were augmented by PRP. Conclusions Thus, co-administering ASCs with PRP in mice prevented RT-induced adverse effects and can be tested for use in clinical practice.Öğe Effects of Lipokit® Centrifugation on Morphology and Resident Cells of Adipose Tissue(Soc Chilena Anatomia, 2013) Duman, Selcuk; Aktan, Tahsin Murad; Cuce, Gokhan; Cihantimur, Bulent; Tokac, Mehmet; Akbulut, HabipThe aim of adipose tissue engineering is creating autologus vascularized fat tissue to be used for practical soft tissue reconstruction in human clinic. Unfortunately, in practice, long-term results of fat transplantation are often untrustworthy and unreliable, to overcome this problem different many lipoinjection techniques developed in the last 20 years. Centrifuge is a fundamental step in the preparation of adipose tissue. We focused on some cell markers especially MSCs markers and histological structural properties after with lipokit centrifugation and without lipokit centrifugation of adipose tissue obtained by liposuction by this new technique. Adipose tissue was taken by liposuction and separates to two portions. One of them is centrifugated by Lipokit machine (C+) has a micro filter and the other is not (C-). After centrifugation smear slides and paraffin sections were prepared from these tissues. These slides were stained with H&E and Toluidine Blue. Paraffin sections were immunohistochemically stained with CD34, von Willebrand Factor, CD73, CD90 and CD105. Smear preparations showed a continuous three dimensional plasma membrane appearance of adipocytes. C+ and C-showed expression of CD34, von Willebrand Factor, CD73, CD90, CD105. C+ seems to have more free cells expressing than C-. While passing the filter of Lipokit, large adipocytes and connective tissue parts disintegrate and thus increases the surface area of lipoaspirate. Lipokit (R) machine release the group cells which are necessary for angiogenesis and they become more freely to construct angiogenesis.Öğe Efficacy of Hyaluronic Acid in The Selection of Human Spermatozoa with Intact DNA by The Swim-up Method(Royan Inst, 2016) Saylan, Aslihan; Duman, SelcukObjective: In 2014, enrolled 20 patients who applied to the Unit of Assisted Reproduction Techniques, Konya Necmettin Erbakan University. Based on the presence of hyaluronic acid (HA) in the oocyte-cumulus cell complex, sperm attached to HA in vivo were modeled in vitro. Available healthy sperm obtained in the swim-up procedure using HA were investigated. Materials and Methods: This observational cohort study, a routine analysis was conducted on the ejaculation samples obtained from 20 patients. We divided each sample into two groups and the swim-up method was applied. Human serum albumin (HSA, 0.5%) was added to samples from the first group. HA (10%) was added to samples from the second group. We determined the floating linear and non-linear sperm concentrations of both groups annexin V was used to determine the rate of apoptosis of these sperm. Results: Following swim-up, linear and non-linear sperm concentrations were higher in the group that contained HA compared to the group with HSA. However, there was a significantly higher apoptosis rate in the HSA group compared to the HA group. Conclusion: The addition of HA to the medium in the swim-up procedure positively affected sperm parameters. Thus, healthier sperm cells were obtained without DNA damage and with high motility.Öğe Histopathological Evaluation of Platelet-Rich Plasma Effect in Acute Tympanic Membrane Perforation(Springer India, 2022) Cobden, Serap Bulut; Ozturk, Kayhan; Duman, Selcuk; Esen, Hasan; Aktan, Tahsin Murad; Avunduk, Mustafa Cihat; Elsurer, CagdasPlatelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a reliable and has low side-effect profile and has beneficial effects on wound healing. Its investigatory effects on wound-healing process were shown on various tissues. This study aims to investigate PRP's local application effects to perforated rat TM in terms of healing and histopatological outcomes. Twenty-two Wistar rats were used in the study. The rats' ears were examined with a pediatric endoscope (2.7 mm, 0 degrees), and the TM posterior quadrant of their right ear was perforated with a 20-gauge needle. After this procedure, the rats were divided into two equal groups. A spongel with PRP was applied on the perforated TM in the first group, and spongel with standard saline solution was applied on the second group. Following the sacrifice, the middle air bullas were carefully dissected and removed for histopathological examination. Hematoxylin eosin (for fibroblasts, lymphocyte, collagen fibers) and immunohistochemical staining were done for epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR), fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR1), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) staining for histopathologic examinations. There was not a significant difference between the two groups for lymphocyte. There was a significant difference between control and study groups for collagen and EGFR (P < 0.05). Although the mean value of FGF- and VEGF-positive cells was higher in the study group than in the control group, the difference was not significant (P > 0.05). PRP is an effective autologous material for the healing process of acute TM perforations in a rat model, as demonstrated in the present study. We think that the use of PRP for acute TM perforations can have a positive effect on the healing process by increasing the level of growth factors, especially EGFR. In addition, an increase in collagen can also have a positive effect on healing.Öğe Intra-articular platelet-rich plasma injection for the treatment of temporomandibular disorders and a comparison with arthrocentesis(Churchill Livingstone, 2015) Hanci, Mustafa; Karamese, Mehtap; Tosun, Zekeriya; Aktan, Tahsin Murad; Duman, Selcuk; Savaci, NedimBackground: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) internal derangements are progressive painful conditions and cause joint dysfunction, joint sound, malocclusion, and locking of the mouth. Conservative and invasive techniques can be used for the treatment of TMJ internal derangements. The objective of the present study was to examine the benefit of an intra-articular platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection and to compare this with arthrocentesis. Methods: Twenty patients (female: male; 15: 5; age 26, 3 +/- 9.3 years) for a total of 32 joints with reducible anterior disc dislocation, as confirmed by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), were divided into two groups. PRP was used for the study group, and arthrocentesis was used for the control group. Pain intensity, maximal interincisal opening, and TMJ sounds were assessed and compared for evaluation of treatment success. Results: There was a statistically significant reduction in pain intensity and joint sound and an increase in mouth opening in the study group when compared with the control group. Conclusions: This study shows that intra-articular PRP injection for the treatment of reducible disc displacement of the TMJ is a more effective method than arthrocentesis.

Wharton's jelly stem cells were obtained from a commercial kit sourced from human umbilical cord. Skin allografts were performed from CD57Bl6 to Balb/c mice (day 0). Group 1 (control) received no treatment. Group 2 received 15 mg/kg cyclosporin A on days 0 to 30. Group 3 received 5.7 x 10(6) and 10.3 x 10(6) cell/kg Wharton's jelly stem cells on days 0 and 3, respectively. Groups 4, 5, and 6 received a combination of 15, 10, and 5 mg/kg per day cyclosporine A (days 0 to 30) with the same stem cell dose with group 3, respectively. Graft rejection was evaluated with digital photography and thermal imaging, histopathology (Banff grading, epithelialization scores, dermoepidermal dissociation), immunochemistry (Ki-67 and Bcl-2), and biochemical methods (interleukin 10, interleukin 2, interferon gamma, tumor necrosis factor alpha) (day 10). Cumulative adverse effects of cyclosporin A occurring in the groups were revealed by histopathological evaluation of kidney and liver (a modified semiquantitative method of infiltration of inflammatory cells around the portal area and lobular region in liver; modification of the Banff rating of proximal tubules and hypertrophia of juxtaglomerular apparatus cells in kidney) (day 30).ResultsThere was no rejection in groups 2, 4, and 5 until the end of study. These were statistically different versus groups 1 (day 10 +/- 0.71), 3 (day 11 +/- 0.82), and 6 (day 11 +/- 0.58) (all P's < 0.05). Groups 4 and 5 have exhibited statistically similar findings in histopathological (4 epithelization score: 3.7 +/- 1.3; 5 epithelization score: 3.5 +/- 0.5; 4 Banff grading score: 0.8 +/- 0.6; 5 Banff grading score: 1.0 +/- 0.5; both P's = 1.00), immunohistochemical (4 Bcl-2 score: 3.5 +/- 0.5, P = 0.618; 5 Bcl-2 score: 3.4 +/- 0.5, P = 1.00; 4 Ki-67 score: 3.7 +/- 0.4, P = 1.00; 5 Ki-67 score: 3.5 +/- 0.5, both P's = 1.00), and levels of cytokines (both P's = 1.00) versus group 2. Adverse effects on kidneys and liver were lowest and statistically similar in groups 3, 5, and 6 (all P's = 00) versus group 1.ConclusionsWharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells alter bioavailability of cyclosporine, albeit at much lower doses and with fewer systemic adverse effects.Öğe Treatment of Acute Vocal Fold Injury With Platelet-Rich Plasma(Mosby-Elsevier, 2016) Cobden, Serap Bulut; Ozturk, Kayhan; Duman, Selcuk; Esen, Hasan; Aktan, Tahsin Murad; Avunduk, Mustafa Cihat; Elsurer, CagdasObjectives. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a reliable and has low side-effect profile and has beneficial effects on wound healing. Its investigatory effects on wound-healing process were shown on various tissues. The aim of the present study was to evaluate effectiveness of PRP application on scar tissue of acute vocal fold injury. Materials andmethods. Twenty-fourWistar rats were used in the study. The entire layer of the lamina propria down to the thyroarytenoid muscle of 10 subjects was unilaterally injured by with a microscissor. Gelfoam-absorbed PRP was applied on the injured area for 10 minutes. Control group consisted of rats unilaterally injured using a microscissor, and gelfoam with normal saline was applied on the injured area. Following sacrifice, the larynxes were carefully dissected and removed for histopathologic examination. After excised larynx experiments, serial sections were prepared from vocal fold. Hematoxylin eosin and immunohistochemical staining were done for epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR), fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR1), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) staining for histopathologic examinations. Results. There was not a significant difference between the two groups for lymphocyte. Although collagen and VEGF were higher in the study group, there was not a significant difference between the groups (P > 0.05). There was a significant difference between control and study groups for EGFR and FGFR1(P < 0.05). Conclusions. PRP has beneficial effects on wound healing. PRP accelerates epithelization of injured rat vocal folds by inducing EGFR secretion. PRP is an autogenous, reliable, low side-effect profile, easily harvested material. PRP may be useful to prevent scar formation.
