Differentiation and Apoptosis of U937 Leukemia Cells by an Active Compound from Dendrostellera lessertii
Background: Regarding the strong differentiation and anti-leukemic activity of Dendrostellera lessertii extract, an active agent with similar capabilities was isolated from the crude extract of the plant leaves. The aim of this study was to determine whether the anti-proliferative effect observed for this compound, is differentiation-dependent among the drug-treated cells, using U937 cells. Me...
متن کاملApoptosis induction in acute promyelocytic leukemia cells through upregulation of CEBPα by miR-182 blockage
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) involved in regulation of the genes. The CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-α (CEBPα) is a crucial transcription factor for normal hematopoiesis and cell cycle that frequently disrupted in human acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The miR-182 up-regulation in several malignant diseases such as AML was reported, in the other hand bioinformatics analysis revealed CEBPα targeted by miR-18...
متن کاملFunctionally deficient differentiation of HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells induced by phorbol myristate acetate.
The human promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60 undergoes terminal myeloid differentiation in vitro in response to a wide variety of chemicals. The tumor promoter phorbol myristate acetate induces these cells to develop macrophage-like morphology, adherence, and enzymatic characteristics. The present study confirms those observations and further documents the induction, by 16 nM phorbol myrist...

متن کاملTargeting SLUG sensitizes leukemia cells to ADR-induced apoptosis.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Slug is an E-cadherin repressor and a suppressor of PUMA (p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis) and it has recently been demonstrated that Slug plays an important role in controlling apoptosis. In this study, we examined whether Slug's ability to silence expression suppresses the growth of leukemia HL-60 cells and/or sensitizes leukemia HL-60 cells to adriamycin (ADR) thro...
