Cytotoxic and Apoptotic Activities of Methanolic Subfractions of Scrophularia oxysepala against Human Breast Cancer Cell Line
Herbs have played a positive role in medicine for thousands of years. In the current study, we investigated the cytotoxicity effects of Scrophularia oxysepala methanolic subfractions and the underlying mechanism responsible for cell death in human breast carcinoma (MCF-7 cells) and mouse fibrosarcoma (WEHI-164 cells). From 60% and 80% methanolic fractions, four subfractions (Fa, Fb, Fc, and Fd)...
متن کاملDichloromethane fractions of Scrophularia oxysepala extract induce apoptosis in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells.
Breast cancer is a prevalent malignancy among women, especially in developing countries. A large number of anticancer agents with herbal origins have been reported. Hence, herbals may play an essential role in prevention and treatment of cancers. We investigated cytotoxic effects of dichloromethane fractions of Scrophularia oxysepala extract on the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. The cytotoxic a...
متن کاملCytotoxicity Effect of Cladribine on the MCF-7 Human Breast Cancer Cell Line
Cladribine, an analogue of deoxyadenosine, is highly toxic for both non-dividing and proliferating cells and has shown activity in the treatment of several malignancies. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to investigate the cytotoxicity effect of cladribine (2-CdA) on the breast cancer cell line, MCF-7 (estrogen receptor positive, ER+). MTT assay, annexin V-Fluorescein/PI and Hoechst 33...
متن کاملCytotoxic Activity of Thelesperma megapotamicum Organic Fractions against MCF-7 Human Breast Cancer Cell Line
Thelesperma megapotamicum (Asteraceae) is commonly used in Argentine to treat various diseases (renal, digestive affections, and as anaesthesia). The present study showed the mechanisms involved “in vitro” cytotoxicity of T. megapotamicum Fractions. Five Fractions (F1 F5) were separated by column chromatography (Silica gel) using hexane:diethyl ether as eluents. Viability was evaluated in Human...
متن کاملEvaluation of anticancer effect of hydroalcoholic extract of Stachys setifera on MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line
Abstract: Background and Aim: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women. Given that plant compounds have been used to treat cancer for centuries. Despite some reports of antitumor effects on some species of this genus, the anticancer activity of Stachys setifera has not yet been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate the cytotoxic effect of hydroalcoholic extract of Stachy...
