چکیده

The effect of sodium butyrate (NaB) alone and in combination with a glucocorticoid was studied on Y-79 retinoblastoma cells both in vitro and in vivo. Both NaB (0.5 and 4 mM) and hydrocortisonc (1-100 JUM) added separately to cells grown in suspension resulted in a small growth inhibition (<15%). A marked synergistic effect (75-77% growth inhibition) was observed in vitro when NaB and hydrocortisone were added in combination at all the concentrations tested. With in vivo experiments using the nude mouse model of retinoblastoma, the combination of NaB and methylprednisolone did not inhibit tumor growth. Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 32:1711-1713, 1991

The effect of crocin (a derivative of Crocus sativus L.) on neural development and regeneration of rat: in vivo and in vitro study

In this study, the effect of crocin, a substance found in Crocus sativus L. stigmata on nervous system development and regeneration was investigated. Crocin is a glycosyl ester of the polyene dicarboxylic acid crocetin and is one of the few families of carotenoids found in nature, which are freely soluble in water. In the first experiment, the effect of crocin (30 microM, 60 microM and 120 micr...

Genetically Engineered Mouse Embryonic Stem Cell – derived Cardiomyocytes as a Suitable Model on Drugs Toxicity In vitro

Background DOX is a powerful chemotherapeutic agent used in the treatment of solid tumors and malignant hematological diseases. However, its cardiac toxicity limits the clinical usefulness of this drug. Previous reports have shown Corticosteroids induce a cytoprotective effect on cardiomyocytes. Mouse transgenic embryonic stem cell-derived pure cardiomyocytes may be considered as a model for a...
