abstract stachys is one of the largest genera in the flowering plant family. it is in the subfamily lamioideae (labiatae), spreading and growing in different parts of iran. the purpose of this study was to investigate the chemical properties of stachyslavandulifolia as well as the essence, ethanol and methanol extracts of this plant. it was collected from chulus located in the west of mazandara...

the methanolic extracts of indigofera aspalathoides (meia) and wedelia calendulaceae (mewc) were evaluated for their anticancer activity against ehrlich ascites carcinoma (eac) in swiss albino mice. on day 1, the extract of indigofera aspalathoides at a dose of 250 and 500 mg/kg body weight and the extract of wedelia calendulaceae at a dose of 250 and 500 mg/kg body weight were administered ora...

currently cancer is considered as one of the main factors of mortality globally. many chemicals in our environment can cause genetic mutations and are potentially responsible for millions of cancer-related deaths. nowadays the scientists are looking for food materials which can potenthially prevent the cancer occurrence. the purpose of this research is to examine antimutagenicity and anticancer...

background: lactoferrin (lf) is a glycoprotein, a member of the transferrin family.from ten known mechanisms of anti-cancer chemoperotecive compounds, lf alone, has six of these functions and inhibits cancer. in this study, the effect of lactoferrin purified from bovine colostrum was studied as an anti-cancer agent on esophageal cancer cell line. materials and methods: bovine colostrum were col...

ophiocoma erinaceus muller &troschel; (ophiocomidae) is part of the extensive group of echinoderm that contains bioactive metabolites. as, the anti cancer potential of brittle star saponin has not been reported against cervical cancer, the present study was conducted to evaluate the anticancer effect of extracted crude saponin. saponin extraction was conducted using conventional method such as ...

cancer is one of the main cause of mortality in the world which appears by the effect of enviromental physico-chemical mutagen and carcinogen agents. the identification of new cytotoxic drug with low sid effects on immune system has developed as important area in new studies of immunopharmacology. curcumin is a natural polyphenol with anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties...

objective(s): berberine is one of the main alkaloids and it has been proven to have different pharmacological effects including inhibition of cell cycle and progression of apoptosis in various cancerous cells; however, its effects on cancer metastasis are not well known. cancer cells obtain the ability to change their chemokine system and convert into metastatic cells. in this study, we examine...
