Deregulation of the CEACAM Expression Pattern Causes Undifferentiated Cell Growth in Human Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells
CEACAM1, CEA/CEACAM5, and CEACAM6 are cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) family that have been shown to be deregulated in lung cancer and in up to 50% of all human cancers. However, little is known about the functional impact of these molecules on undifferentiated cell growth and tumor progression. Here we demonstrate that cell surface expression of CEACAM1 on ...
متن کاملExpression Pattern of Alternative Splicing Variants of Human Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase (hTERT) in Cancer Cell Lines Was not Associated with the Origin of the Cells
Telomerase and systems controlling their activity have been of great attention. There are controversies regarding the role of the alternative splicing forms of the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), the catalytic subunit of telomerase. Therefore, the correlation between telomerase enzyme activity, the abundance of alternatively spliced variants of hTERT and doubling time of a seri...
متن کاملExpression of urotensin II and its receptor in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells and the effect of urotensin II on lung adenocarcinoma growth in vitro and in vivo.
Urotensin II (UII), originally identified from fish urophysis, is a potent vasoactive peptide and an endogenous ligand for an orphan G protein-coupled receptor GPR14, now named as urotensin II receptor (UT-R). In this study, we investigated the mRNA and protein expressions of UII and its receptor (UT-R) in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells, and the effect of exogenous UII on the proliferatio...
متن کاملThe Cytotoxic Effects of Eggplant Peel Extract on Human Gastric Adenocarcinoma Cells and Normal Cells
Background and objective: Gastric cancer is the fourth common and the second deadliest cancer worldwide, which the major causes of its prevalence are genetic factors and the lifestyle, such as eating fast foods, physical inactivity, environmental pollution, and other natural factors. Method: This research was performed in human and animal cell bank of Iranian Biological Resource Center, and ...
متن کاملGarlic Extract Can Induce Apoptotic Cell Death in The Human Colon Adenocarcinoma HT29 Cell Line
Background and Objective: Garlic has been known worldwide as a dietary constituent with many pharmacological effects. The present in vitro study was designed to investigate the putative anticancer effect of garlic extract on cancer cells, and if this effect was through apoptosis induction. Material and Methods: Human colon adenocarcinoma cells HT29 were treated with different doses (1, 5 a...
