Viola tricolor Induces Apoptosis in Cancer Cells and Exhibits Antiangiogenic Activity on Chicken Chorioallantoic Membrane
In the present study, the cytotoxic and apoptogenic properties of hydroalcoholic extract and ethyl acetate (EtOAc), n-butanol, and water fractions (0-800 μg/mL) of Viola tricolor were investigated in Neuro2a mouse neuroblastoma and MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. In addition, antiangiogenic effect of EtOAc fraction was evaluated on chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM). The quality of EtOAc f...
متن کاملA novel transcriptional inhibitor induces apoptosis in tumor cells and exhibits antiangiogenic activity.
Using a high-throughput cell-based assay, we identified a nucleoside analogue 4-amino-6-hydrazino-7-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-7H-pyrrolo(2,3-d)-pyrimidine-5-carboxamide (ARC), which has the properties of a general transcriptional inhibitor. Specifically, ARC inhibits the phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II by positive transcription elongation factor-b, leading to a block in transcriptional elongati...
متن کاملEvaluation of Antiangiogenic Potential of MMP2 Antisense Oligonucleotide for the Management of Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy Using Chicken Chorioallantoic Membrane
Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is the advanced stage of diabetic retinopathy in which neovascularization occurs at the retina. Angiogenesis, the formation of new vessels from the existing one involves sequential step starting from the degradation of basement membrane by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). The elevated expression of MMP2 is considered as the one of the important paramete...
متن کاملAcetylcholinesterase Inhibitors Promote Angiogenesis in Chick Chorioallantoic Membrane and Inhibit Apoptosis of Endothelial Cells
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common causes of dementia in the elderly. Recently, a great attention has been paid to the possible role of vascular changes in the pathogenesis of AD. Reduced microvascular density and degeneration of the endothelium are of structural cerebrovascular changes in AD. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors are widely used for the improvement of AD sympt...
متن کاملAntiangiogenic cancer drug sunitinib exhibits unexpected proangiogenic effects on endothelial cells
Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, is an essential step for cancer progression, but antiangiogenic therapies have shown limited success. Therefore, a better understanding of the effects of antiangiogenic treatments on endothelial cells is necessary. In this study, we evaluate the changes in cell surface vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) expression on endothelial...
