Publication Metadata only A brief atlas of insulin(Bentham Science, 2022) N/A; Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics; Ayan, Esra; Demirci, Hasan; PhD Student; Faculty Member; Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics; Koç Üniversitesi İş Bankası Yapay Zeka Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezi (KUIS AI)/ Koç University İş Bank Artificial Intelligence Center (KUIS AI); Graduate School of Sciences and Engineering; College of Sciences; N/A; 307350Insulin is an essential factor for mammalian organisms: a regulator of glucose metabolism and other key signaling pathways. Insulin is also a multifunctional hormone whose absence can cause many diseases. Recombinant insulin is widely used in the treatment of diabetes. Understanding insulin, biosimilars, and biobetters from a holistic perspective will help pharmacologically user-friendly molecules design and develop personalized medicine-oriented therapeutic strategies for diabetes. Additionally, it helps to understand the underlying mechanism of other insulin-dependent metabolic disorders. The purpose of this atlas is to review insulin from a biotechnologi-cal, basic science, and clinical perspective, explain nearly all insulin-related disorders and their underlying molecular mechanisms, explore exogenous/recombinant production strategies of patented and research-level insulin/analogs, and highlight their mechanism of action from a structural per-spective. Combined with computational analysis, comparisons of insulin and analogs also provide novel information about the structural dynamics of insulin.Publication Restricted Investigation of brain CD47 expression and its relation with cognitive functions in diabetic mice models(Koç University, 2022) Kirişçioğlu, Nil; Tütüncü, Yıldız; 0000-0002-3905-6429; Koç University Graduate School of Health Sciences; Immunology; 239430
