[ 1 ] - Time dependent of epigenetic effect of disulfiram on tumor suppressor gene of RASSF1A in Hela cancer cell line
Introduction: Cervical cancer is the third most common tumor among women. Surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy are common treatments, however high stage tumors have frequently poor prognosis. Nowadays, the epigenetic reversion introduced as an efficient strategy of treatment of cervical cancer. In the process, inhibitors of DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) induce re-expression of tumor suppresso...
[ 2 ] - Peripheral blood lymphocytes are able to maintain their viability and basic function in normal urine
Background: Similar to inflammatory cells, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) can also infiltrate in to kidney and urinary tracts and subsequently excreted by urine. In this study we determined the viability rate and response to phytohemagglutinin-A (PHA) of human PBMCs in normal urine. Methods: A number of 1×106 ficoll-hypaque isolated PBMCs were dispensed in 1 ml normal urine...
[ 3 ] - Total Phenolics and Flavonoids Contents of Aqueous Extract of Stinging nettle and In Vitro Antiproliferative Effect on Hela and BT- 474 cell lines
Phenolic compounds including flavonoids and phenolic acids are plants secondary metabolites. Due to their ability to act as antioxidant agents, there is a growing interest to use those components in traditional medicine for cancer prevention or treatment. The aim of this study was to measure the amounts of total phenolics and flavonoids as well as anti-proliferative effect of aqueous extract of...
[ 4 ] - Optimization of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) cryopreservation
Cryopreservation is the method of choice for long term storage of human PBMCs. This study was designed to compare the different combinations of variables affecting the cryopreservation of PBMCs samples. The viability of PBMCs separated from 2×5 ml peripheral blood samples obtained from 16 healthy adult volunteers, were measured using trypan blue dye exclusion method just before freezing with ...
[ 5 ] - بررسی سرولوژیک توکسوپلاسموز در زنان باردار شهر بابل،شمال ایران، 1392-1391
مقدمه: توکسوپلاسموزیس یکی از شایع ترین بیماری های عفونی در دنیا است که در نتیجه عفونت با تک یاخته داخل سلولی به نام توکسوپلاسما گوندی ایجاد می شود. معمولا آلودگی به این انگل در بالغین بدون علامت است ولی کسب آن در دوران جنینی از مادرمبتلا بدون علامت منجر به عوارض جدی در جنین می گردد. این مطالعه با هدف تعیین میزان شیوع و بروز توکسوپلاسموز در زنان باردار شهرستان بابل ، شمال ایران انجام گرفت. م...
[ 6 ] - Antibacterial and Cytotoxicity Effects of TiO2-Grafted Cellulose Nanocomposite
TiO2-grafted cellulose bio-nanocomposite (Cell.Com) was successfully prepared by combining modified cellulose and TiO2 nanoparticles via copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide click reaction. The antibacterial and cytotoxicity effects of Cell.Com containing cellulose, triazole ring and TiO2 moieties are reported in this work. The antibacterial activity of Cell.Com was investigated against gram positive ...
[ 8 ] - Changes in the Radiation Toxicity of Human Lymphoblastic T-cell Line (Jurkat) by a Common Pesticide: Diazinon
Background: Diazinon is one of the most common pesticides in the world playing a similar role to radiation and it could cause DNA breaks and genetic effects.Objective: In this study, radiosensitivity of a lymphoblastic cell line pretreated by Diazinon was investigated. Material and Methods: In this case-control study, the human lymphoblastic T-cell line was divided into 6 groups bas...
