Role of DNA Methylation in Cell Cycle Arrest Induced by Cr (VI) in Two Cell Lines
Hexavalent chromium [Cr(IV)], a well-known industrial waste product and an environmental pollutant, is recognized as a human carcinogen. But its mechanisms of carcinogenicity remain unclear, and recent studies suggest that DNA methylation may play an important role in the carcinogenesis of Cr(IV). The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of Cr(IV) on cell cycle progress, global DNA m...
متن کاملpRB plays an essential role in cell cycle arrest induced by DNA damage.
To maintain genome stability, cells with damaged DNA must arrest to allow repair of mutations before replication. Although several key components required to elicit this arrest have been discovered, much of the pathway remains elusive. Here we report that pRB acts as a central mediator of the proliferative block induced by a diverse range of DNA damaging stimuli. Rb-/- mouse embryo fibroblasts ...
متن کاملDNA damage and cell cycle arrest induced by protoporphyrin IX in sarcoma 180 cells.
BACKGROUND Porphyrin derivatives have been widely used in photodynamic therapy as effective sensitizers. Protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), a well-known hematoporphyrin derivative component, shows great potential to enhance light induced tumor cell damage. However, PpIX alone could also exert anti-tumor effects. The mechanisms underlying those direct effects are incompletely understood. This study thus ...
متن کاملAnalysis of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis induced by RCAS1.
A tumor-associated antigen RCAS1 (receptor binding cancer antigen expressed on SiSo cells) induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis to a putative RCAS1 receptor (RCAS1-R) expressing cells such as T, B, and natural killer cells. Its expression is related with clinical poor prognosis of some malignant tumors. It is suggested that the expression of RCAS1 in tumor cells plays an important role in ev...
متن کاملMechanisms of interferon-induced cell cycle arrest.
The interferons (IFNs) are a group of cytokines, which in addition to their antiviral activity are capable of modulating a variety of cellular responses. One such prominent effect of IFNs is their potent antimitogenic action, which can be observed both on malignant and non-malignant cells of many different origins. IFNs are also used in the clinic, mainly in malignant and viral diseases, and th...
