Influence of Sutherlandia frutescens extracts on cell numbers, morphology and gene expression in MCF-7 cells.
Sutherlandia frutescens is a well-known South African herbal remedy traditionally used for stomach problems, internal cancers, diabetes, various inflammatory conditions and recently to improve the overall health in cancer and HIV/AIDS patients. The influence of crude Sutherlandia frutescens extracts (prepared with 70% ethanol) was investigated on cell numbers, morphology, and gene expression pr...
متن کاملVernonia amigdalina - INDUCED TOXICITY AND CELL DEATH THROUGH NECROSIS IN HUMAN BREAST (MCF-7) CELLS
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether Vernonia amigdalina (VA) induced cell death is associated with necrosis. To achieve this goal, MCF-7 cells were treated with different concentrations of VA for 48 h prior to cell viability using MTT, trypan blue, and propidium iodide assays respectively. The results obtained from the MTT, trypan blue, propidium iodine indicated that VA aff...
متن کاملComparative proteomics study of proteins involved in induction of higher rates of cell death in mitoxantrone-resistant breast cancer cells MCF-7/MX exposed to TNF-α
Objective(s): Resistance to medications is one of the main complications in chemotherapy of cancer. It has been shown that some multidrug resistant cancer cells indicate more sensitivity against cytotoxic effects of TNF-α compared to their parental cells. Our previous findings indicated vulnerability of the mitoxantrone-resistant breast cancer cells MCF-7/MX to cell de...
متن کاملVitamin C suppresses cell death in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells induced by tamoxifen
Vitamin C is generally thought to enhance immunity and is widely taken as a supplement especially during cancer treatment. Tamoxifen (TAM) has both cytostatic and cytotoxic properties for breast cancer. TAM engaged mitochondrial oestrogen receptor beta in MCF-7 cells and induces apoptosis by activation of pro-caspase-8 followed by downstream events, including an increase in reactive oxygen spec...
متن کاملEffects of 8-hydroxyquinoline-coated graphene oxide on cell death and apoptosis in MCF-7 and MCF-10 breast cell lines
Objective(s): Breast cancer is a devastating disease related to women. The anticancer properties of 8-hydroxyquinoline (8HQ) and the increasing use of graphene oxide (GO), as a drug delivery system with anti-cancerous properties, led us to investigate the toxicity and apoptosis-induction capability of 8HQ-coated GO on breast cancer cells compared with normal breast cel...
