متن کاملEffects of aqueous saffron extract on nitric oxide production by two human carcinoma cell lines: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) and laryngeal carcinoma (Hep2)
Objective: A number of studies have demonstrated the potential antitumor effects of saffron and its constituents on different malignant cells in vitro. It has been reported that a novel glycoconjugate isolated from corms and callus of saffron possesses cytotoxic activity against different tumor cellswith nitric oxide (NO) production. These data suggest that the cytotoxic effect of saffron extra...
متن کاملEffect of valproic acid on SOCS1, SOCS3, JAK1, JAK2, STAT3, STAT5A, and SOCS5B in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cell line
Background and aim: Aberrant activation of diverse intracellular signaling pathways involved in differentiation, cell growth, apoptosis. These pathways include known oncogenic pathways such as Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway. The JAK/STAT signaling pathway plays an important role in many cellular functions. This pathway can be activated by variou...
