INTRODUCTION Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common neoplasm of the larynx and glottis, and its prognosis depends on the size of the lesion, level of local invasion, cervical lymphatic spread, and presence of distant metastases. Ki-67 (MKI67) is a protein present in the core, whose function is related to cell proliferation. AIM To evaluate the expression of marker Ki-67 in squamous cell c...

the cytotoxic activity of ethanolic extracts of thymus vulgaris, thuja orientalis and achillea millefolium was investigated on various growing tumor cell lines. mtt colorimetric assay was used for measuring the inhibition of cell proliferation. all of the three extracts showed a relatively dose-dependent inhibition of proliferation of human breast cancer (sk-br-3, mda-mb-435) and leukemia (u937...

In this study, the antiproliferative effects of the metformin was evaluated on MCF-7 Cells (human breast adenocarcinoma cell line). For this purpose cell kinetic parameters including cell proliferation assay, mitotic index and labelling index analysis were used. 30 μM, 65 μM and 130 μM Metformin doses were applied to cells for 24, 48 and 72 hours. The results showed that there was a significant...

objective(s) mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) from large animals as goat which is genetically more closely related to human have rarely been gained attentions. the present study tried to isolate and characterize mscs from goat bone marrow. materials and methods fibroblastic cells appeared in goat marrow cell culture were expanded through several subcultures. passaged-3 cells were then differentiat...

Background: Microparticles (MPs) are small vesicles released from the cell membrane. Accordingly, these contain active molecules to mediate biological processes, including cell proliferation and cell cycle progression. The fusion of myeloma cell lines with immunized B lymphocytes is a critical step of hybridoma technology. MPs modulate lymphoproliferation, thereby facilitating B cell expansion ...

human diploid fibroblast cells produce a spectrum of necessary growth factors and extracellular matrix (ecm) components essential for growth and proliferation of a variety of other cell types. in this study, the effect of five human embryonic fibroblast cell lines, isolated from liver, lung, skin and foreskin tissues, was investigated. a coculture system analyse was employed to cloning efficien...

background: stem cell factor (scf) is a transcriptional factor which plays crucial roles in normal proliferation, differentiation and survival in a range of stem cells. objective: the aim of the present study was to examine the proliferation effect of different concentrations of scf on expansion of human endometrial cd146+ cells. materials and methods: in this experimental study, total populati...
