Phloroglucinol is a polyphenolic compound that is used to treat and prevent several human diseases, as it exerts beneficial biological activities, including anti-oxidant, anti‑inflammatory and anticancer properties. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of phloroglucinol on apoptotic signaling pathways in HT-29 colon cancer cells. The results indicated that phloroglucinol ...

Because O blood group has been associated with more severe cholera infections, it has been hypothesized that cholera toxin (CT) may bind non-O blood group antigens of the intestinal mucosae, thereby preventing efficient interaction with target GM1 gangliosides required for uptake of the toxin and activation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling in target epithelia. Herein, we show ...

Human angiogenin, a potent inducer of neovascularization, is secreted by HT-29 colon adenocarcinoma cells, ug doses of a monoclonal antibody that neutralizes the in vitro and in vivo activities of angiogenin prevent or delay the appearance of s.c. HT-29 tumors in athymic mice in a statisti cally significant, dose-dependent manner. The antibody is not cytotoxic to tumor cells in vitro, which ind...

Human angiogenin, a potent inducer of neovascularization, is secreted by HT-29 colon adenocarcinoma cells. microgram doses of a monoclonal antibody that neutralizes the in vitro and in vivo activities of angiogenin prevent or delay the appearance of s.c. HT-29 tumors in athymic mice in a statistically significant, dose-dependent manner. The antibody is not cytotoxic to tumor cells in vitro, whi...
