AbstractLeukemia is known as the world’s fifth most prevalent cancer. New cytotoxic drugs have created considerable progress in the treatment, but side effects are still the important cause of mortality. Plant derivatives have been recently considered as important sources for the treatment of various diseases, including cancer. Gallic acid (GA) is a polyhydroxyphenolic compound with a wide rang...

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of most fatal cancers. In most patients It is resistant to chemotherapy. Ferula gummosa gum, Scutellaria lindbergii, Kelussia odoratissima and Artemisia kopetdaghensis are herbs that there are some cytotoxic activity reports about them. In this study cytotoxic and apoptotic activity of these four extracts on RCC cell line (ACHN) were evaluated and compared.ACHN...

Despite the progress in cancer therapies such as chemotherapy and radiation, its eradication remains as unattainable dream for the patients and doctors. Recently, using supplementary agents such as herbal medicine with fewer side effects seems efficient and attractive. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to investigate if the ethanolic extract of P.oleracea has cytotoxicity and apopt...

Linear (order-one) function evaluation schemes, such as bipartite and multipartite tables, are usually effective for low precision approximations. For high output precision, the lookup table size is often too large for practical use. This study investigates the so-called (M,p, k) scheme that reduces the range of input argument to a very small interval so that trigonometric functions can be appr...

Cell damage induced by free radicals has been implicated as causal factor in a wide variety of human diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders. Scientific recognition of natural antioxidants may be helpful in preventing many diseases. Aqueous Date fruit extract (ADFE)- PC12 cell line. ADFE at concentrations of 0.1-10% containing 0.005% H2O2 and H2O2 at concentrations of 0.01-1% conta...

aquatic plants have been used prevalently in china since 3000 years ago due to having various chemical compounds for diseases prevention and cure. dunaliella salina is one of the micro algae in marine ecosystems containing beta-carotene, retinal, apocarotenoides, ketones, aldehydes and epoxides which enable it to absorb free radicals and produce singlet oxygen.  in many studies, the anti-cancer...
