Evaluation of Iranian Snake ‘Macrovipera lebetina’ Venom Cytotoxicity in Kidney Cell Line HEK-293
Background:Envenomation by Macrovipera lebetina (M. lebetina) is characterized by prominent local tissue damage, hemorrhage, abnormalities in the blood coagulation system, necrosis, and edema. However, the main cause of death after a bite by M. lebetina has been attributed to acute renal failure (ARF). It is unclear whether the venom components have a direct or indirect action in causing ARF. T...
متن کاملThe ethics of HEK 293.
1 Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Donum vitae (February 2, 1987), Introduction, 5. 2 Ibid., I, 1. The topic of embryonic stem cells is very much in the forefront of public interest. The moral stance on obtaining stem cells from embryos is clear: The Church has always taught that all human life from the very beginning must be respected and protected. If human embryos are killed to ob...
متن کاملEffects of methylmercury on human neuronal L-type calcium channels transiently expressed in human embryonic kidney cells (HEK-293).
Methylmercury (MeHg) disrupts the function of native, high voltage-activated neuronal Ca(2+) channels in several types of cells. However, the effects of MeHg on isolated Ca(2+) channel phenotypes have not been examined. The aim of the present study was to examine the action of MeHg on recombinant, neuronal L-type voltage-sensitive Ca(2+) channels. Human embryonic kidney cells (HEK-293) were tra...
متن کاملInvestigating Anticancer Effects of Silver Nanoparticles on Bladder Cancer 5637 Cells in Comparison to Human Embryonic Kidney Normal Cells (HEK-293)
Background & aim: Nanotechnology is a modern research field with broad applications in cancer management. Among the various metal nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been used in cancer therapy due to their promising anti-tumor properties. Despite the great advantages of AgNPs, their effects on normal cells have become a challenge. Besides, their anti-cancer effects have not previo...
متن کاملCellular gene expression survey of PseudoRabies Virus (PRV) infected Human Embryonic Kidney cells (HEK-293).
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is an alpha herpesvirus that causes Aujezsky disease in the pig. To characterize the impact of PRV infection on cellular expression, we used microarrays consisting of 9850 oligonucleotides corresponding to human genes and examined the expression levels of mRNA isolated 0.5, 3, 6, and 9 h post infection (hpi) from cultures of infected HEK-293 cells. Very few changes were...
