Growth inhibitory activity of Ankaferd hemostat on primary melanoma cells and cell lines
OBJECTIVE Ankaferd hemostat is the first topical hemostatic agent about the red blood cell-fibrinogen relations tested in the clinical trials. Ankaferd hemostat consists of standardized plant extracts including Alpinia officinarum, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Thymus vulgaris, Urtica dioica, and Vitis vinifera. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Ankaferd hemostat on viability of melano...
متن کاملAnkaferd hemostat induces DNA damage, apoptosis and cytotoxic activity by generating reactive oxygen species in melanoma and normal cell lines
Although, Ankaferd hemostat (Ankaferd Blood Stopper, ABS) could be utilized successfully as hemostatic agent, studies demonstrated that it has cytotoxic effects on cells. However, the mechanism(s) of this effect has not been elucidated yet. In this study, cytotoxic, genotoxic, apoptotic and reactive oxygen generating (ROS) activities of ABS were investigated in melanoma and normal cell lines. T...
متن کاملEndothelial Cells, Ankaferd Hemostat, and Estradiol
We previously demonstrated the effects of Ankaferd hemostat (AH) on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in Turkish Journal of Hematology [1]. Endothelial cells adhered to each other within seconds and critical intracellular transcription factors were activated just after the application of AH (5 μL) to the HUVECs (Figure 1A). Rapid vital endothelial cell adherence/ aggregation is re...
متن کاملCYTOKINE AND GROWTH FACTOR MODULATION OF CELL CYCLE EVENTS IN HUMAN MELANOMA CELL LINES
Cytokines influence cell cycle events, which in some but not all instances can be associated with melanoma progression. Analysis of the G0/G 1 and S phase fractions of the cell cycle was used to assay the proliferative or inhibitory activity of cytokines against ten human melanoma cell lines, including pairs of cell lines derived from primary and metastatic tissue of individual patients. Cy...
