Introduction: The use of drug delivery systems can increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy and reduce its side effects in the treatment of breast cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of doxorubicin-containing silk fibroin nanoparticles (NF-DOX) on P53 gene expression in breast cancer cell lines and to measure its toxicity in vitro. Methods: NF-DOX was synthesized and characterize...
متن کاملDoxorubicin and Doxorubicin-loaded Nanoliposome Triggers Hepatocyte Cells Senescence through Accumulation of Inflammatory Factors and Activation of P53
Background and purpose: Induction of cellular senescence is indicative of new strategy to prevent abnormal proliferation of cancer cells. Doxorubicin (DOX) is gaining attention for its neoplasia suppressive and inhibitory properties, but its clinical utility is limited due to irreversible effects on non-target cells/tissues. In this way, nanoliposomal structures were developed in drug delivery ...
متن کاملAnti-cancer Potential of Captopril and Botulinum Toxin Type-A and Associated p53 Gene Apototic Stimulating Activity
Mutational inactivation of p53 is a key player in the development of human cancer. Thus, retrieving the tumor suppressor activity of p53 gene is considered a novel strategy in cancer therapy. Current study aimed to investigate the anti-cancer potentials of botulinum toxin type-A (BTX-A) and captopril as a trial to shed light on effective anti-cancer therapy with lower side effects. Cytotoxic ef...
