A promising natural product, pristimerin, results in cytotoxicity against breast cancer stem cells in vitro and xenografts in vivo through apoptosis and an incomplete autopaghy in breast cancer
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018)
Several natural products have been suggested as effective agents for the treatment of cancer. Given the important role of CSCs (Cancer Stem Cells) in cancer, which is a trendy hypothesis, it is worth investigating the ...
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 ...
Synthesis, characterization, anticancer and antioxidant activity of new nickel(II) and copper(II) flavonoid complexes
(Elsevier, 2019)
Flavonoids are natural products which are known to have biological activity for human health. In this study, new mixed ligand complexes of Ni(II) and Cu(II) were synthesized by using flavonoid (quercetin or naringenin) and ...
Pd(II) and Pt(II) saccharinate complexes of bis(diphenylphosphino) propane/butane: synthesis, structure, antiproliferative activity and mechanism of action
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2018)
[M(sac)(2)(dppp)] (1 and 2), [M(dppp)(2)](sac)(2) (3 and 4) and [M(sac)(2)(dppb)] (5 and 6) complexes, where M = Pd-II (1, 3 and 5) and Pt-II (2, 4 and 6), sac = saccharinate, dppp = 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane and ...
Cancer stem cells : root of the evil
(Begell House Inc., 2019)
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been one of the most attractive research areas over the last two decades due to their important roles in aggressive tumor behaviors. Although CSCs are usually a small subpopulation of tumors ...
Lichens exerts an anti-proliferative effect on human breast and lung cancer cells through induction of apoptosis
(Taylor and Francis Ltd, 2021)
Successful cancer treatment still requires new complexes or compounds from natural sources. Therefore, we investigated anti-growth/apoptotic effects of methanol extracts of the lichen species (Xanthoparmelia somloensis ...
Mixed ligand complexes of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) with quercetin and diimine ligands: synthesis, characterization, anti-cancer and anti-oxidant activity
(Springer, 2020)
In this work, mixed ligand complexes of Co(II) Ni(II) and Cu(II) were synthesized using quercetin and diimine (1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2 '-bipyiridine) ligands. The obtained Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes are new and the ...
Etoposide loaded SPION-PNIPAM nanoparticles improve the in vitro therapeutic outcome on metastatic prostate cancer cells via enhanced apoptosis
(2020)
Prostate cancer is among the leading causes of death worldwide because its metastatic form is a deadly disease. Therefore, the development of new chemotherapeutics is of immense importance. Nanoparticle technology seems ...
Synergistic interactions between resveratrol and doxorubicin inhibit angiogenesis both in vitro and in vivo
(POLSKA AKAD NAUK, 2020)
Resveratrol is a polyphenolic compound which is found in many nutrients including grapes, peanuts, raspberries, and apples. Anti-proliferative, anti-angiogenic and apoptotic effects of resveratrol have been shown on various ...
Synthesis, structures and anticancer potentials of platinum(II) saccharinate complexes of tertiary phosphines with phenyl and cyclohexyl groups targeting mitochondria and DNA
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2018)
A series of new Pt(II) saccharinate complexes containing PR3 ligands (PPh3, PPh2Cy, PPhCy2 and PCy3) with progressive phenyl (Ph) replacement by cyclohexyl (Cy) were synthesized and structurally characterized by lR, NMR, ...
