Radiosensitization by CpG ODN7909 in an epidermoid laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cell line
Objective To evaluate the radiosensitivity effect of CpG oligodeoxyribonucleotide (ODN) 7909 on human epidermoid cancer strain-2 (Hep-2) cells in vitro and discuss the potential for improved radiotherapy treatment in patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods Toll-like receptor ( TLR) 9 expression was assessed in Hep-2 cells using Western blots and reverse transcription polymerase...
متن کاملIn vitro Cytotoxic Effect of Brazilian Green Propolis on Human Laryngeal Epidermoid Carcinoma (HEp-2) Cells
Propolis is a sticky dark-colored material showing a very complex chemical composition that honeybees collect from plants. It has been used in folk medicine since ancient times, due to several biological properties, such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immunomodulatory activities, among others. Its antitumor action in vivo and in vitro has also been reported, using propolis...
متن کاملBasaloid Squamous Cell Carcinoma: An Unusual Ball-Valve Laryngeal Obstruction
Introduction: A rare case of basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (BSCC) of the larynx, which has not been previously reported, is described. Case Report: A 60-year-old man was presented to the Otolaryngology Department with progressive dyspnoea and dysphagia to solids for over a period of 1 week. Direct laryngoscopy revealed a tumour at the laryngeal aspect of the epiglottis, which prolapsed into...
متن کاملAlteration in TWIST expression: possible role in paclitaxel-induced apoptosis in human laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cell line.
AIM To explore the relationship between alteration in the expression of TWIST, highly conserved transcription factor from the basic helix-loop-helix family, and apoptosis of Hep-2 cells induced by chemotherapeutic agent paclitaxel. METHODS Morphological changes of Hep-2 cells were observed by acridine orange cytochemistry staining. Viability of Hep-2 cells treated with various concentrations ...
متن کاملCytotoxicity and genotoxicity of coronaridine from Tabernaemontana catharinensis A.DC in a human laryngeal epithelial carcinoma cell line (Hep-2)
Cancer has become a major public health problem worldwide and the number of deaths due to this disease is increasing almost exponentially. In the constant search for new treatments, natural products of plant origin have provided a variety of new compounds to be explored as antitumor agents. Tabernaemontana catharinensis is a medicinal plant that produces alkaloids with expressive antitumor acti...
