Overexpression of microRNA-630 in Acute Leukemic T-cell line

Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are noncoding RNAs that control the expression of their target mRNAs. It affects cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis as oncogenes or tumor suppressors. Dysregulation of miRNAs expression leads to the development of various cancers. Therefore, for the first time in this field, this study investigated the effect of overexpression of microRNA-630 on the Jurkat ce...

Role of Phosphoramidate Antisense in Specific Inhibition of K562 Leukemic Cell Line

Metabolism of proline in a human leukemic lymphoblastoid cell line.

Amino acid analysis of the culture medium was carried out in a human leukemic lymphoblastoid cell line (REH) established from the lymphoblasts of a patient with acute lymphoid leukemia. The results are compared with those of a reference cell line (LHN13) established from normal human lymphocytes. The most striking difference between these two cell lines concerns proline. In LHN13 the concentrat...

Investigation of the Effect of Folic Acid Based Iron Oxide Nanoparticles on Human Leukemic CCRF-CEM Cell Line

Abstract Background Nanoparticulate drug delivery systems have attracted significant attention in the field of cancer nanotechnology. This study determines the effect of folate-based Fe2O3 nanoparticles. This study aimed to decorate nanoparticles with folate (FA), a molecular ligand for ‘active’ targeting of cancerous cells and the application of modified-nanoparticles in cancer treatment. ...

Embryonic erythroid differentiation in the human leukemic cell line K562.

K562 human leukemia cells synthesize embryonic hemoglobins after culture in the presence of hemin. We have rigorously identified these hemoglobins by globin chain analysis and peptide mapping. No adult hemoglobin could be detected, and beta-globin synthesis was less than 2 ppm of total protein synthesis. Persistent embryonic globin gene expression is known to occur as a consequence of globin ge...
