AbstractFerulago angulata Boiss. known in Iran as Chavir, has some bioactive compounds having antioxidant activity. Because of its antioxidant activities, it sounded Chavir extract can be a good candidate for finding chemopreventive agents having inductive apoptosis properties on cancer cells. In this study, the cytotoxic effects and proapoptotic activities of Chavir’s leaf and flower extracts ...

ABSTRACT Apoptosis and inflammation were the main hallmarks of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC). Yes-associated protein isoform 1 (Yap1) miR-484 involved in mitochondrial fission apoptosis, especially proapoptotic roles SIC. Here, we investigated role Yap1 lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated H9c2 cells. was downregulated, while elevated by LPS treatment. Cell counting kit-8, flow cytometry, wes...

Background: Doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity appears to be a growing concern for extensive use in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The new combination treatment strategies, therefore might be an effective way of decreasing its side effects as well as improving efficacy. AMG232 (KRT-232) is a potential MDM-2 inhibitor, increasing available p53 through disturbing p53-MDM-2 interaction....

Bladder cancer is a urothelial malignancy. starts in the cells lining inside of bladder. The 5-year recurrence rate for bladder ranges from 31% to 78%, and progression approximately 45%. To treat cancer, intravesical drug therapy often used. Leonurus artemisia extract (LaE) was obtained medicinal samples Chinese motherwort Scientific Medicine; L. has various biological effects. This study inves...

Purpose: To investigate the involvement of aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C1 (AKR1C1) in glycyrrhizic acid-mediated gastric cancer.Methods: Immunohistochemistry, quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and western blot were used to assess AKR1C1 expression cancer. Cell proliferation was assessed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-te...

The major challenge to treat Parkinson’s disease (PD) is penetration of target molecule into the brain to improve the efficacy of drugs. To achieve better brain penetration and targeted delivery, 1,9-Pyrazoloanthrone (1,9-P) loaded liposomes were developed by solvent injection technique using ultrasonication and evaluated for particle size, morphology, entrapment efficiency, FT-IR, and in-vitro...

methods the current study generated two recombinant lentiviruses, plex-gcn and plex-gcp, bearing noxa and puma, respectively. transduction of both genes to hepatocarcinoma (hepg2) was verified using fluorescent microscopic analysis, western blotting, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (pcr). to evaluate the potential of noxa and puma to initiate apoptosis, a caspase-9 real-tim...

Aim The aim of this study was to examine the potential ameliorative effects caffeic acid (CA) on hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced neurodegeneration in a human SH-SY5Y cell line, as well possible mechanisms involved. Method Cell proliferation evaluated by WST-1 assay. apoptotic index calculated TUNEL Assay. Antioxidant parameters were studied measuring reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid peroxi...

Purpose: To investigate the role of embelin in periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) an vitro model periodontitis.Methods: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated PDLSCs was used to construct a periodontitis cell model. treatment group were pretreated with different concentrations Embelin, and CCK-8 TUNEL staining analyze viability apoptosis. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits evalua...
