Background: Norepinephrine plays a trophic role in the control of cell replication and differentiation in target cells that express adrenergic receptors. Methods: In this study, we have tested the influence of infraphysiological, physiological and supraphysiological concentrations (0.0001 nM, 1 nM, 10000 nM) of human norepinephrine on the proliferation of breast cancer cells (human breast adeno...

a new series of anti-cancer agents based on 1,2-diaryl-5,6-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline scaffold containing n,n-diethylamino ethoxy, piperidinyl ethoxy or morpholinyl ethoxy group at the para position of the c-2 phenyl ring were synthesized and their cytotoxic activities were assessed against several human cancer cell lines including mcf-7 (er positive breast cancer cell), mda-mb231 (er-ne...

introduction: transient cavitations induced by low frequency irradiation of ultrasound can be used to treat tumors. previous studies in in-vitro experiments have shown that induced cavitation by dual or multiple frequencies of ultrasound is greater than induced cavitation by single frequency irradiation. in this study, we compared and evaluated the treatment effects of dual frequency irradiatio...

from december 2000 until 2010, the researchers at royan institute conducted a wide range of investigations on ovarian tissue cryopreservation with the intent to provide fertility preservation to cancer patients that were considered to be candidates for these services. in 2010, royan institute established the royan human ovarian tissue bank as a subgroup of the embryology department. since its i...

Medicinal plants have been investigated for possible anti-cancer effects. The aim of the present study was to examine the cytotoxic activity of several medicinal plants on different tumor cell lines. 11 selected plant species which have been used in folkloric prescriptions were collected from different sites of Hamedan district of Iran. The methanolic extracts of the plants were prepared and th...
