In the present study, fungal specimens collected from Yeşildere village in Uşak province, Türkiye were evaluated. The underwent detailed examination through both mor-phological and DNA (nrITS rDNA region TEF1a gene) sequence-based phylogenetic analysis. Based on evaluation of micro- macromorphological characteristics, analyses, specimen was identified as A. vidua Gasch, G. Moreno & P.-A. Moreau. This identification marks a new record for Turkish Amanita section Phalloideae. study...
Alphaviruses present serious health threats as emerging and re-emerging viruses. Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV), a New World alphavirus, can cause in humans horses, but there are no therapeutics for treatment. To date, compounds reported anti-VEEV or anti-alphavirus inhibitors have shown moderate activity. discover new classes of with novel viral targets, we used high-throughput screen based on the measurement cell protection from live VEEV TC-83-induced cytopathic effect to...
Aim of study: This research seeks to deepen our understanding Turkish mycobiota by incorporating a newly identified species from Hysterangiales. Area The area is approximately 4 kilometres the centre Demirköy in Kırklareli and predominantly covered with beech trees. Material method: fungal samples were rigorously examined through morphological evaluation DNA sequencing nrITS rDNA region TEF1a gene, microscopic macroscopic features for phylogenetic analysis. Main results: Following fieldwork...
The samples were collected from Ankara, Gaziantep, Konya, Niğde, and Şanlıurfa (Türkiye), between 2020 2023. Morphological analyses nrITS rDNA sequence-based phylogenetic methods used to examine the samples. Twenty-one specimens displayed morphological features consistent with Terfezia claveryi Chatin at both macro micro levels. Genetic analysis revealed over 99% sequence similarity this species. Detailed documentation included habitat descriptions, geographical coordinates, collection...
Aim of the study: The principal objective this study is to contribute Turkish mycobiota by including three newly reported agaricoid macrofungi species.
 Study area: Situated approximately 5 km from city center in Beşevler area Çankaya district Ankara, Ankara University's 10th Year Campus has qualities akin both an arboretum and a botanical garden. Serving as refuge for wide variety species, campus was officially acknowledged grade 3 natural site 2016. 
 Material method: research...
Inocybe specimens were collected from Ankara University Beşevler 10. Yıl Campus, (Ankara, Türkiye) on October 19, 2022. As a result, the samples identified as I. costinitii, new record for Turkish Inocybe. This study presents detailed description of this newly recorded species, covering aspects such its location, observations habitat, geographical coordinates, date collection, and photographs that highlight macroscopic microscopic characteristics. Moreover, features species' drawings some...
In 2023, fungal specimens were collected from the Tınaztepe Campus of Dokuz Eylül University (İzmir-Türkiye). These samples underwent a comprehensive and meticulous evaluation involving morphological examination phylogenetic analysis based on nrITS rDNA sequencing. The DEU AKATA & SAHIN 148 exhibited microscopic macroscopic characteristics that closely matched those Rhodocybe asyae, initially described by Sesli Vizzini. genetic sequence revealed over 99% similarity with R. asyae This...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a highly prevalent neurodegenerative disorder, often associated with oxidative stress-induced transcriptional changes in dopaminergic neurons. Phenolic antioxidants, oleuropein (OLE) and rutin (RUT) have attracted great interest due to their potential counteract protein aggregation toxicity. This study aimed at examining the effects of OLE RUT against 6-OHDA-induced stress response rat pheochromocytoma cells. When differentiated PC12 cells were exposed composer...
Aim of study: The main aim this study is to contribute the fungal diversity Türkiye by presenting two newly documented species within order Agaricales. Area samples reported were collected under pine trees in Ankara Üniversitesi Beşevler 10. Yıl Campus, Ankara, and fir forest at At Plateau, located 10 km from Bolu city center. Material method: underwent detailed analysis, including morphological evaluation DNA sequencing nrITS rDNA region TEF1α gene. This process involves examining both...
Reovirus, a double-stranded RNA virus, can infect many types of cancer cells and cause oncolysis. Mammalian reovirus has exhibited promising anticancer activity in clinical trials holds great advantages promise as an agent. Reovirus is not associated with any serious human diseases, naturally targets destroys tumors, lacks the DNA synthesis stage, thus avoiding potential insertion mutations. This review discusses properties related to oncolysis mechanisms oncolytic selection, summarizes...
Tuber samples were collected from Kırklareli province on the 10th of August 2020 and they are identified by implementing both traditional methods molecular phylogenetic analysis using rDNA sequences including Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) 28S Ribosomal Large Subunit (LSU) regions. By taking into account high sequence similarity between (ANK Akata 7351) truffle species fulgens Quél. specimen was regarded as T. morphological data also consolidated this finding. As a result, reported for...
