Coenzyme Q₁₀ deficiency in mitochondrial DNA depletion syndromes.
We evaluated coenzyme Q₁₀ (CoQ) levels in patients studied under suspicion of mitochondrial DNA depletion syndromes (MDS) (n=39). CoQ levels were quantified by HPLC, and the percentage of mtDNA depletion by quantitative real-time PCR. A high percentage of MDS patients presented with CoQ deficiency as compared to other mitochondrial patients (Mann-Whitney-U test: p=0.001). Our findings suggest t...
متن کاملStudy of Cytotoxic Effects of Saffron in MCF-7 Cells
Current therapies for breast cancer are often limited by short-term efficacy due to the emergence of drug resistance. There has been increased interest in the use of naturally occurring compounds with chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic effects in the treatment of cancers. Saffron, dry stigmas Crocus sativus L., used in Iran as a spice, is known for its anticancer properties. In...
متن کاملROCK Inhibition Activates MCF-7 Cells
Dormant carcinoma cancer cells showing epithelial characteristics can be activated to dissipate into the surrounding tissue or organs through epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). However, the molecular details underlying the activation of dormant cancer cells have been less explored. In this study, we examined the molecular pathway to activate dormant breast cancer cells. Rho-associated kin...
متن کاملManifestation of Key Molecular Genetic Markers in Pharmacocorrection of Endogenous Iron Metabolism in MCF-7 and MCF-7/DDP Human Breast Cancer Cells
Effects of the nanocomposite and its components (magnetic fluid, cisplatin) on the level of endogenous iron exchange and the key links of genetic and epigenetic regulation of apoptotic program of sensitive and resistant MCF-7 cells were examined. We showed genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of action of nanocomposite of magnetic fluid and cisplatin. Nanocomposite caused elevation of number of ce...
متن کاملCoenzyme Q0 Enhances Ultraviolet B–Induced Apoptosis in Human Estrogen Receptor–Positive Breast (MCF-7) Cancer Cells
Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0; 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-1,4-benzoquinone), a major active constituent of Antrodia camphorata, has been shown to inhibit human triple-negative breast cancer (MDA-MB-231) cells through induction of apoptosis and cell-cycle arrest. Ecological studies have suggested a possible association between ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation and reduction in the risk of breast cancer. However, th...
