Induction of programmed cell death by Prangos uloptera, a medicinal plant.
Inhibition of the cell growth or induction of cell death is the most promising area in cancer therapy. The induction of apoptosis by dichloromethane extract of Prangos uloptera was evaluated on the McCoy cell line. This plant's roots, aerial parts and fruit have medicinal value. Cell growth inhibitory and cell cytotoxicity effects of the extract were assayed by MTT and Trypan-blue tests, respec...
متن کاملProgrammed Cell Death in Plant-pathogen Interactions.
Plants cope with pathogen attacks by using mechanisms of resistance that rely both on preformed protective defenses and on inducible defenses. The latter are the most well studied, and progress is being made in determining which induced responses are responsible for limiting pathogen growth. Many plant-pathogen interactions are accompanied by plant cell death. Recent evidence suggests that this...
متن کاملHydrogen peroxide as a signal controlling plant programmed cell death
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has established itself as a key player in stress and programmed cell death responses, but little is known about the signaling pathways leading from H2O2 to programmed cell death in plants. Recently, identification of key regulatory mutants and near-full genome coverage microarray analysis of H2O2-induced cell death have begun to unravel the complexity of the H2O2 networ...
متن کاملCell death induction by Streptococcus pyogenes in four types of malignant cell lines
Abstract Background: The interest in using bacteria as anti- cancer therapeutic agents dates back to the end of the19th century. Some bacteria like Salmonella and Listeria replicate effectively inside malignant cell lines and suppress their growth. The bacterium Streptococcus pyogenes has become medically famous as a flesh-eating pathogen since mid-1980s. It is the causative agent of a life...
متن کاملInduction of apoptosis (programmed cell death) in tumour cell lines by widely diverging stimuli.
( a ) S. cerevisiae was grown for 24 h in the presence of various octenidine concentrations and in the absence (0) or presence ( m ) of ethidium bromide (10 pglml) and assayed for petite mutants. Growth conditions and petite assay were as described by Meyer & Whittaker 161. ( 6 ) S. cerevisiue was grown in the presence of ethidium bromide (10 pglml). Octenidine (0.5 pg/ml) was added after 1 h (...
