Acanthamoeba induces cell-cycle arrest in host cells.
Acanthamoeba can cause fatal granulomatous amoebic encephalitis (GAE) and eye keratitis. However, the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of these emerging diseases remain unclear. In this study, the effects of Acanthamoeba on the host cell cycle using human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEC) and human corneal epithelial cells (HCEC) were determined. Two isolates of Acanthamoeba belongi...
متن کاملCrude Methanol Extract of Echinophora Platyloba Induces Apoptosis and Cell Cycle Arrest at S-Phase in Human Breast Cancer Cells
The aim of the present study was to determine cytotoxic activity of crude methanolicextract of Echinophora platyloba on breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cell line. The free radicalscavenging effects of methanolic extract of E. platyloba were tested using DPPH method.Crude methanolic extract exhibited potential antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 234.28 ±21.63 μg/mL when compared to the standard ...

متن کاملQuercetin induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in CD133+ cancer stem cells of human colorectal HT29 cancer cell line and enhances anticancer effects of doxorubicin
Objective(s):The colorectal cancer stem cells (CSCs) with the CD133+ phenotype are a rare fraction of cancer cells with the ability of self-renewal, unlimited proliferation and resistance to treatment. Quercetin has anticancer effects with the advantage of exhibiting low side effects. Therefore, we evaluated the anticancer effects of quercetin and doxorubicin (Dox) in HT29 cancer cells and its ...
متن کاملRocaglaol induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in LNCaP cells.
Rocaglaol is a cytotoxic cyclopenta[b]benzofuran isolated from the bark of Aglaia crassinervia. It exhibited in vitro cytotoxic activity against Lu1, LNCaP and MCF-7 cells with ED50 values of 13.8, 23.0 and 9.2 nM, respectively. DAPI staining indicated that LNCaP cells treated with rocaglaol underwent apoptosis. In order to determine whether rocaglaol-induced apoptosis is mediated by the mitoch...
