Antiproliferative effect of oleuropein in prostate cell lines

Antiproliferative effect of polyphenols and sterols of virgin argan oil on human prostate cancer cell lines.

BACKGROUND The aim of our study has to evaluate the antiproliferative effect of polyphenols and sterols extracted from the virgin argan oil on three human prostatic cell lines (DU145, LNCaP, and PC3). METHODS Cytotoxicity, anti-proliferative effects and nuclear morphological changes of cells were analyzed after treatment with sterols and polyphenols. The results were compared to 2-methoxyestr...

Antiproliferative Effect of Solanum nigrum on Human Leukemic Cell Lines

Solanum nigrum is used in various traditional medical systems for antiproliferative, antiinflammatory, antiseizure and hepatoprotective activities. We have evaluated organic solvent and aqueous extracts obtained from berries of Solanum nigrum for antiproliferative activity on leukemic cell lines, Jurkat and HL-60 (Human promyelocytic leukemia cells). The cell viability after the treatment with ...

Synergistic Anticancer Effect of Paclitaxel and Noscapine on Human Prostate Cancer Cell Lines

Paclitaxel is the one of the most common chemotherapeutic drugs used for the treatment of prostate cancer. However, its current clinical utility has been limited due to numerous serious side effects and drug resistance. Noscapine is an antitussive opium alkaloid that showed antitumor activity against a variety of cancer while has not exhibited severe side effects. This study investigates the a...
