[ 1 ] - Comparison of the protection performance in a composite shield and a lead standard shield in terms of biological effects in nuclear medicine

Introduction:In the nuclear medicine departments, staff exposure to radiation is inevitable during patient positioning and radiopharmaceutical preparation. There is controversy regarding the use of usual lead aprons with respect to penetrating gamma rays used in nuclear medicine departments as well as production of characteristic lead x-ray from aprons. Methods:</stron...

[ 2 ] - بررسی بیان ژن های 1 Beclin و 10 Atg در مسیر اتوفاژی و در مبتلایان به لوسمی لنفوبلاستی حاد

زمینه و هدف: لوسمی لنفوبلاستیک حاد (ALL) سرطانی است که اغلب، کودکان و نوجوانان را در معرض خطر قرار می‌دهد و با نسبت کمتر در بزرگ‌سالان نیز دیده می‌شود. اتوفاژی فرایند کاتابولیک برنامه ریزی شده سلول برای تخریب اندام‌ها و پروتئین های آسیب دیده است و این عمل را توسط لیزوزم ها به انجام می‌رساند. اختلال در اتوفاژی منجر به ناهنجاری‌هایی در فرآیندهای سلولی می‌شود. روش بررسی: در این مطالعه، بیان ژن‌های...

[ 3 ] - Evaluation of ATG7 and Light Chain 3 (LC3) Autophagy Genes Expression in Newly Diagnosed AML Patients

Evaluation of ATG7 and LC3 Autophagy Genes Expression in Newly Diagnosed AML patients Background and aim: Autophagy, known as cell death type II, is a housekeeping pathway that currently has been worked on in matters of tumorigenesis and leukemogenesis. Therefore, in this study expression levels of ATG7 and LC3 as two key genes are targeted in AML patients. Material and method: This...

[ 5 ] - CDK Blockade Using AT7519 Suppresses Acute Myeloid Leukemia Cell Survival through the Inhibition of Autophagy and Intensifies the Anti-leukemic Effect of Arsenic Trioxide

The strong storyline behind the critical role of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor proteinsin natural defense against malignant transformation not only represents a heroic perspective forthese proteins, but also provides a bright future for the application of small molecule inhibitorsof CDKs in the novel cancer treatment strategies. The results of the present study revea...

[ 7 ] - Alterations of adiponectin gene expression in bone marrow of acute myeloid leukemia

Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by the proliferation of myeloid precursors and abnormal differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells, which results in the accumulation of immature cells in the bone marrow (BM). The accumulation of these cells in the bone marrow causes molecular and cellular changes in the microenvironment of the bone marrow. The adiponectin hormone orig...
