We aimed to develop a cost-effective and robust method to predict drug resistance in individualpatients. Representative tissue fragments were obtained from tumors removed from femalepatients, aged 24-74 years old. The tumor tissue was taken by a histopathology’s or a surgeonunder sterile conditions. Cells obtained by enzymatic dissociation from tumor after surgery, werecultured as a monolayer f...

neospora caninum is a coccidian protozoan parasite which is a major cause of bovine abortions and neonatal mortality in cattle, sheep, goat and horse. occasionally, cultured cells are used for isolation and multiplication of the agent in vitro with several purposes. in this study the tachyzoite yields of n. caninum were compared in various cell cultures as the host cell lines. among the cell cu...

background : the development of chemoresistance represents a major obstacle in the successful treatment of cancers such as non-hodgkin’s lymphoma (nhl). with the recognition of important roles for both p53 and its more recently described paralog p73 in mediating the activity of anti-cancer drugs, there has been increasing recognition that cellular resistance to anthracyclines could and does a...

Intercellular interactions are studied using different co-culture systems. Tumor conditioned medium-based systems, filter inserts and direct contact co-culture systems are often used according to research needs. In this article we present a new co-culture technique, using negatively-charged slides (NCS) as the culture surface. The technique was developed on a human-derived endothelial cell line...

introduction: hela cell is a widely studied cell line derived from human cerzix adenocarcinoma. the cells are epithelial - like in morphology and susceptible to polio viruses and adenovirus type 5. hela cells are usually as monolayer for isolation and propagation of some human viruses, as well as for the expression of recombinant proteins, including hepatitis b surface antigen. the aim of this ...

staphylococcus spp., is a common bacteria in cattle mastitis. detection of the low number of bacteria requires a sensitive method. we used multiplex polymerase chain reaction (m-pcr) assay to detect the genes encoding sea, seb, sec toxins, that are specific in s. aureus bacteria. the gene of 23s rrna that is conserved in all staphylococcus spp., also was used. due to the stiffness and low effec...
