background: regarding the strong differentiation and anti-leukemic activity of dendrostellera lessertii extract, an active agent with similar capabilities was isolated from the crude extract of the plant leaves. the aim of this study was to determine whether the anti-proliferative effect observed for this compound, is differentiation-dependent among the drug-treated cells, using u937 cells. met...

artemisia is an important genus of iranian flora whose potent anti-proliferative effect has been demonstrated previously on human cancerous cell lines. in the current study, further fractionation was carried out on the petroleum ether extract of a. aucheri and their cytotoxic effects were evaluated on three human cancer cell lines. cell viability was determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2yl)-2,...

results a significant decrease in apoptotic cells and increase in proliferative reaction were observed in the i/r + hbo group compared to the i/r group. conclusions we demonstrated that hbo suppressed apoptosis, which caused inflammation after renal i/r, and promoted tubular cell regeneration. hbo has protective effects against aki caused by renal i/r through the inhibition of apoptosis. materi...

Between 1978 and 1985, 140 patients with large cell lymphoma (27 follicular, 92 diffuse, 5 immunoblastic, and 16 transformed) had DNA-RNA cytometry performed on involved tissue. DNA-RNA features were correlated with treatment outcome and compared to other established prognostic factors in 63 newly diagnosed patients who received uniformly intensive therapy. Significantly better outcome was note...

Preinvasive & invasive cervical lesions are a major public health concern, though it is a preventable problem to a great extent. At present few reports have been published concerning the variability of proliferative activity in cervical biopsy in women with cervical neoplastic damage. Again though the association between HPV & neoplastic cervical lesions is well known, only a few studies have b...
