background : gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (gtn) refers to malignant lesions that arise from abnormal proliferation of placental trophoblast. even in its metastatic forms gtn is curable with a cure rate of 90-100 %. currently, methotrexate with or without folic acid, andactinomycin d is recommended for low risk gtn. the aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of methotrexate and acti...

Objective Apigenin is a plant-derived compound belong to the flavonoids category and has the protective effects on different cells. The aim was to evaluate the effect of apigenin on the number of viable and apoptotic blastomeres, the zona pellucida (ZP) thickness and the hatching rate of preimplantation mouse embryos exposed to H2O2 and actinomycin D. MaterialsAndMethods 420 two-cell embryos we...

in this study the programmed cell death (apoptosis) of human neutrophilic granulocytes was investigated in the presence and absence of fetal calf serum (fcs), cycloheximide and actinomycin-d. the results show that when fcs is omitted from cultures, apart from a decrease in viability, the percentage of apoptotic cells and dna fragmentation increases. apoptosis is accelerated in serum withdrawal ...
