چکیده

A new continuous retinoblastoma cell line (Rb 355-7) derived from a nonfamilial unilaterally-affected child was studied morphologically and with regard to HLA expression. The tumor was compared with two older and widely studied cell lines, the Y-79 and WERI-Rbl strains. The Rb 355-7 line grew in tissue culture in clusters and chains. Its doubling time was calculated to be 4.4 days. In contrast to the Y-79 and WERI-Rbl cell lines, the Rb355-7 showed a paucity of HLA expression. Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 28:690-699, 1987

بررسی رابطه بین ظاهر شدن مولکولهای کلاس HLA-I بر سطح یاخته‌های رده سرطانی و حساسیت به سلولهای کشنده طبیعی

ABSTRACT Natural Killer cells (NKs), are considered an important first line of defence and were originally defined by their ability to kill certain tumor cells and virally infected cells. Our aim is to study expression of HLA class-Ia on tumor cell lines and their susceptibility of NK cells. In this study MDA-MB-468 tumor cell line (NCB1, C208) That derived from human breast adenocarcino...

Effect of 3 MHz ultrasound radiation on retinoblastoma cell line

Ultrasound hyperthermia is a new way to treat cancerous tumors. Retinoblastoma is one of the most common malignant ocular tumors in children. Since hyperthermia is an effective treatment for cancer cells, the effect of hyperthermia on retinoblastoma cells was investigated in this study. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of duration of 3 MHz ultrasound hyperthermia on Y79 cel...

Natural Killer Cell Cytotoxicity Against SKOV3 after HLA-G Downregulation by shRNA

Background: HLA-G is a nonclassical HLA class I molecule which, when elevated in tumor cells, is one of the main factors involved in tumor evasion of immune responses including NK and T cells. Objective: To evaluate the effect of HLA-G downregulation on NK cell cytotoxicity in tumor cell lines. Methods: The expression level of HLA-G was measured by real-time PCR and flowcytometry after transfec...

Synthesis of Titanium Oxide Nanoparticles Functionalized by Glutamine and Conjugated to Thiosemicarbazide and their Effect on the Expression of the CASP3, Bcl2, and BAX genes

Introduction: The increasing trend of cancer morbidity and mortality is a major human health concern, indicating the necessity for the design and introduction of novel anticancer compounds. The use of nanotechnology products is a new approach to cancer treatment. Therefore, the current study was performed to synthesize Titanium Dioxide nanoparticles (NPs) functionalized with glutamine and conju...
