A novel 1,4-naphthoquinone-derived compound induces apoptotic cell death in breast cancer cells
(TR- Dizin, 2019)
Abstract: Breast cancer is the most-diagnosed cancer type among women. The triple-negative subtype is an especially aggressive type
of breast cancer. Although chemotherapy is almost the only option for the treatment of ...
The anticancer potential of chlorine dioxide in small-cell lung cancer cells
(CUREUS INC, 2022)
Background Chlorine dioxide (ClO2) is an effective disinfectant consisting of oxygen, chloride, and potassium. Because of its high oxidative capacity, ClO2 exerts antimicrobial, antiviral, and antifungal effects. However, ...
Characterization of imatinib-resistant K562 cell line displaying resistance mechanisms
(C M B Assoc, 2018)
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a hematopoietic malignancy characterized by the t(9; 22) and the related oncogene, BCR-ABL. Tyrosine kinase activity of fusion protein BCR-ABL is the main cause of CML. Even if imatinib ...
Nesfatin-1 ameliorates oxidative brain damage and memory impairment in rats induced with a single acute epileptic seizure
(Elsevier, 2022)
Aims: We aimed to investigate putative neuroprotective effects of nesfatin-1 on oxidative brain injury and memory dysfunction induced by a single epileptic seizure and to compare these effects with those of antiepileptic ...
Unfolded Protein Response is Involved in Trans-Platinum (II) Complex-Induced Apoptosis in Prostate Cancer Cells via ROS Accumulation
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2019)
Background: Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancer types and it is the sixth leading cause of cancer-related death in men worldwide. Even though novel treatment modalities have been developed, it still a ...
Epibrassinolide impaired colon tumor progression and induced autophagy in SCID mouse xenograft model via acting on cell cycle progression without affecting endoplasmic reticulum stress observed in vitro
(Elsevier Ltd, 2023)
Epibrassinolide is a member of brassinosteroids with a polyhydroxysteroid structure similar to steroid hormones of vertebrates. It was shown that EBR decreased cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in different colon ...
Highly promising antitumor agent of a novel Platinum(II) complex bearing a tetradentate chelating ligand
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2020)
A new mononuclear cationic platinum(II) coordination compound with 6,6'-bis(NH-benzimidazol-2-yl)-2,2'-bipyridine (L) ligand having N-4-tetradentate binding pocket [Pt(L)]-Cl-2.2H(2)O (Complex 1) was synthesized and ...
Silver nanoparticle/capecitabine for breast cancer cell treatment
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019)
This study aimed to evaluate antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects of Capecitabine bonded silver particles on human breast cancer cells (MCF-7). Different sizes of Ag NPs (in sizes 5, 10, 15, 30 nm) were synthesized. ...
Combination of histone deacetylase inhibitor with Cu(II) 5,5- diethylbarbiturate complex induces apoptosis in breast cancer stem cells: a promising novel approach
(2021)
Background: Cancer stem cells (CSC) are subpopulation within the tumor that acts a part in the initiation, progression, recurrence, resistance to drugs and metastasis of cancer. It is well known that epigenetic changes ...
A promising therapeutic combination for metastatic prostate cancer: Chloroquine as autophagy inhibitor and palladium(II) barbiturate complex
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Autophagy is a catabolic process for cells that can provide energy sources and allows cancer cells to evade cell death. Therefore, studies on the combination of autophagy inhibitors with drugs are increasing as a new ...
