objective(s):this study aims at exploring cytotoxic activity of different peptides derived from vsvg protein against mcf-7 and mda-mb-231 breast cancer cell lines and human embryonic kidney normal cell (hek 293).    materials and methods: the anticp web server was used to predict anticancer peptides. the cytotoxic activity of peptides with high score (p26, p7) and low score (p19) was examined b...

Benjakul have also been used for cancer therapy by folk medicine. The ethanolic extracts, five fractions and three pure compounds from Benjakul were investigated for cytotoxic activities against two types of human lung cancer cell lines (COR-L23 and A549) and one normal human lung myofibroblasts (MRC-5). The cytotoxic activities of the BEN-3 fraction which fractionated with vacuum liquid chroma...

Cancer is a disease that suffered by many people and still problem in the world. Breast cancer one of most common cancers with high prevalence women. Sablo plant plants has potential as an alternative therapy from natural ingredients can be further developed anticancer. In this study, we evaluated fraction sablo ( Acalypha wilkesiana ) leaves cytotoxic activity extracts against breast cells MCF...

Cancer is characterized by abnormal cell differentiation in or on the part of body. The most commonly used chemotherapeutic drugs are developed to target rapidly dividing cells, such as cancer but they also damage healthy epithelial cells. This has serious consequences for normal cells and become responsible development various disorders. Several strategies delivering cytotoxic cancerous sites ...

Background: Flavonoids have a variety of biological activities, such as anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, free radical scavenging, and anti-mutagenic. Methods: The cytotoxic effects of three synthesized flavonoid derivatives (K3, K4 and K5) were evaluated against Hela , MDA-MB -231 and HT-29 cancer cells using MTT assay. Results: The results showed that these flavonoids were n...
