Human cytomegalovirus infection in tumor specimens of Iranian patients with glioma

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) causes persistent infection in humans and severe diseases in fetus andimmunocompromised individuals. Although HCMV is not currently implicated in human cancer, emerging evidence suggests that HCMV infection might be specifically associated with some human malignancies including glioma. Glioma is one of the most common brain tumors affecting children and adults. In t...

The Influence of Iron Loading and Iron Chelation on the Proliferation and Telomerase Activity of Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells

Background: Iron is an essential trace element in cell proliferation. Several investigations demonstrate that iron deprivation inhibits cell proliferation. However, the impact of iron on telomerase activity of activated lymphocytes remains unexplained to date. Objective: In this study, the effect of iron on the proliferation and telomerase activity of lymphocytes stimulated by phytohemagglutini...

Activation of telomerase by human cytomegalovirus.

BACKGROUND The mechanism by which human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) stimulates oncogenesis is unclear. Because cellular immortalization and transformation require telomerase activation by expression of the telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) gene, we examined the role of HCMV in telomerase activation. METHODS Normal human diploid fibroblasts (HDFs) and human malignant glioma (MG) cell lines w...

Study of telomerase activity, proliferation and differentiation characteristics in umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells

In recent years, considerable advances have been made in the field of regenerative medicine. Unlikeembryonic stem cells, which pose the problems of ethical concerns and cause severe immunological reactions as well as neoplasma formation after transplantation, umbilical cord blood is a primitive source ofmesenchymal stem cells that covers the benefits of both embryonic and adult stem cells. It h...
