Thymoquinone attenuates diethylnitrosamine induction of hepatic carcinogenesis through antioxidant signaling
Hepatocellular carcinoma accounts for about 80-90% of all liver cancer and is the fourth most common cause of cancer mortality. Although there are many strategies for the treatment of liver cancer, chemoprevention seems to be the best strategy for lowering the incidence of this disease. Therefore, this study has been initiated to investigate whether thymoquinone (TQ), Nigella sativa derived-com...
متن کاملin Liver Carcinogenesis by Diethylnitrosamine Role of Acute Hepatic Necrosis in the Induction of Early Steps
Experiments were performed to assess the role of liver cell necrosis in the induction of early steps in liver carcinogenesis with diethylnitrosamine, as measured by the appearance of foci of resistant hepatocytes that stain for y-glutamyl transpeptidase and that are presumptive preneoplastic lesions in the rat. With the use of a necrogenic dose of diethylnitrosamine and an assay for the carcino...
متن کاملRole of acute hepatic necrosis in the induction of early steps in liver carcinogenesis by diethylnitrosamine.
Experiments were performed to assess the role of liver cell necrosis in the induction of early steps in liver carcinogenesis with diethylnitrosamine, as measured by the appearance of foci of resistant hepatocytes that stain for gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase and that are presumptive preneoplastic lesions in the rat. With the use of a necrogenic dose of diethylnitrosamine and an assay for the car...
متن کاملAndrogen Receptor in Transcriptional Regulation and Carcinogenesis
Androgens control a variety of developmental processes that create the male phenotype and are important for maintaining male fertility and normal functions of tissues and organs that are not directly involved in procreation. Androgen receptor (AR) that mediates the biological actions of androgens is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of ligand-inducible transcription factors. Although...
متن کاملExpression of Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Receptor Gene in the Ovary of a Prenatally-Androgenized Rat Model of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Following Androgen Exposure in the Prenatal Period
Introduction: Based on available evidence, exposure of the female fetus to androgens during the prenatal period, by affecting the expression of some genes, can cause polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in adulthood. On the other hand, changes in luteinizing hormone (LH) levels and its receptor are associated with the risk of reproductive disorders, including PCOS. The present study aimed to evalua...
