[ 1 ] - Carcinoembryonic Antigen Expression and Resistance to Radiation-and 5-Fluorouracil-Induced Apoptosis and Autophagy

Understanding the mechanism of tumor resistance is critical for cancer therapy. In this study, we investigated the effect of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) overexpression on UV-and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-induced apoptosis and autophagy in colorectal cancer cells. We used histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, NaB and DNA demethylating agent, 5- azacytidine (5-AZA) to induce CEA expression in HT29...

[ 2 ] - ارتباط میان نشانگرهای التهابی و شدّت انسداد عروق کرونر تأییدشده با آنژیوگرافی

Background and Aim: Growing clinical evidence suggests that inflammation is the hallmark of the initiation, progression and extent of occlusion by atherosclerosis plaques, but biochemical data are still controversial. The aim of the present cross-sectional investigation was to evaluate the relationship between the severity of coronary artery occlusion (CAO), serum amyloid A (SAA), and interleuk...
