[Mechanism of DNA damage and apoptosis induced by anticancer drugs through generation of reactive oxygen species].
A number of anticancer drugs exert their effect by causing DNA damage and subsequent apoptosis induction. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) and super oxide anion (O(2)(-)), participate in apoptosis and DNA damage induced by some anticancer drugs, however, the precise mechanism of apoptosis via ROS formation remains to be clarified. I investigated the mechanism ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Anticancer Effects Induced by Apis mellifera Venom on Breast Cancer Cell Line
Background: In recent years, the number of people with cancer has increased. For this reason, different drugs have been suggested for the treatment of cancer, but none of them has resulted in complete remission. Many bio-toxins are biologically active compounds with anticancer activity. In the meantime, bee venom (BV) has a potent anti cancer and tumor effects. The aim of present study is evalu...
متن کاملMolecular ordering of apoptosis induced by anticancer drugs in neuroblastoma cells.
Apoptosis mediated by anticancer drugs may involve activation of death-inducing ligand/receptor systems such as CD95 (APO-1/Fas), cleavage of caspases, and perturbance of mitochondrial functions. We investigated the sequence of these events in SHEP neuroblastoma cells transfected with Bcl-2 or Bcl-X(L) using two different drugs, namely, doxorubicin (Doxo), which activates the CD95/CD95 ligand (...

Apoptosis mediated by anticancer drugs may involve activation of death-inducing libami/recepìor systems such as CD9S (APO-I/Fas), cleav age of caspases, and perturbance of mitochondria! functions. We investi gated the sequence of these events in SHEP neuroblastoma cells transfret ed with Bcl-2 or Bcl-XL using two different drugs, namely, doxorubicin (Doxo), which activates the CD9S/CD95 ligand...
متن کاملCells designed to deliver anticancer drugs by apoptosis.
We describe a new drug delivery strategy that uses genetically engineered endothelial cells (ECs) to deliver drugs to tumor cells by apoptosis. Immortalized ECs were genetically engineered to express a flk-1:fas fusion protein. When exposed to the flk-1 ligand, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is overexpressed by many tumors, these cells underwent extensive apoptosis. These apop...
