[ 1 ] - Docetaxel loaded PEG-PLGA nanoparticles: optimized drug loading, in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo antitumor effect
In this study a 3-factor, 3-level Box-Behnken design was used to prepare optimized docetaxel (DTX) loaded pegylated poly lactide-co-glycolide (PEG-PLGA) NPs with polymer concentration (X1), drug concentration (X2) and ratio of the organic to aqueous solvent (X3) as the independent variables and particle size (Y1), poly dispersity index (PDI) (Y2) and drug loading (Y3) as the responses. The cyto...
[ 2 ] - Two Matrix Metalloproteinase Inhibitors from Scrophularia Striata Boiss
Many species belonging to the Scrophularia genus have been used since ancient times as folk remedies for many medical conditions such as scrofulas, scabies, tumors, eczema, psoriasis, inflammations. The aim of this study was to characterize the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) inhibitor compounds of the Scrophularia striata extract by bio-guide fractionation. The aerial parts of S. striata were...

[ 5 ] - Suppression of Telomerase Activity by Pyrimethamine: Implication to Cancer
Although pyrimethamine (Tindurin™) appears to be effective in the prevention and treatment of some infectious diseases, very little information exists on its unpredictable properties. We design this study to evaluate its anti-tumoral effect on a model of cell line. Methods: The cytotoxic influence of Pyrimethamine on prostate cell line was investigated using an in vitro colometric assay. The po...
[ 6 ] - Study of Correlation between Prostate Specific Antigen and Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 Activity in Benign and Malignant Prostate Hyperplasia
There are emerging data on novel tumor markers such as matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2 or gelatinase-A), which play a key role in tissue invasion and metastasis. We designed an investigation to assess the usefulness of MMP-2 activity as compared to prostate specific antigen (PSA) in cancer staging process. We have analyzed the circulating form of MMP-2 in serum samples of patients suffering f...
[ 7 ] - Inhibitory Effect of Coadministration of Silibinin and CpG-ODN2006 on Metastatic Characteristics (MMP-2 and TLR-9) of Hepatocarcinoma Cell Line
Background and purpose: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a most common liver malignancy and TLR9 (Toll-like receptor) is essential for CpG DNA-induced immune responses. The aim of this study was to assess the anti-metastatic effects of combined administration of silibinin and CpG-ODN2006 on human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG-2 cell line model. Materials and methods: Inhibitory effects of va...
