Cytotoxic activity of curcumin towards CCRF-CEM leukemia cells and its effect on DNA damage.
The cytotoxic activity of curcumin towards CCRF-CEM human T-cell leukemia cells was measured by the MTT assay. Tumor cells were more sensitive to the cytotoxic activity of curcumin or curcumin-Cu (II)compared to normal cells, and the IC(50) of curcumin towards CCRF-CEM cells was 8.68 microM, and that of curcumin-Cu (II) was 8.14 microM. The cell cycle distribution of curcumin-treated CCRF-CEM c...
متن کاملCytotoxic effect of Laxaphycins A and B on human lymphoblastic cells (CCRF-CEM) using digitised videomicrofluorometry.
Laxaphycin A (laxa A) and Laxaphycin B (laxa B), cyclic peptides isolated from the terrestrial blue-green alga Anabaena laxa or the marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya majuscula have antifungal and cytotoxic activities. We used numerical videomicrofluorometry and a protocol of multiple labelling with Hoescht 33342 (nuclear DNA), Rhodamine 123 (mitochondria) and Nile Red (plasma membrane) to study the...
متن کاملEffects of antileukemia agents on nuclear matrix-bound DNA replication in CCRF-CEM leukemia cells.
The effects of various antileukemic agents on DNA replication associated with the nuclear matrix were investigated in CCRF-CEM leukemia cells. Residual nuclear matrices were prepared by sequential treatment of nuclei with 1.5 M NaCl, DNase I, and Triton X-100 and contained 1-5, 10, and 37% of the total nuclear DNA, protein, and phospholipid, respectively. In control cells pulse-labeled for 45 s...
متن کاملCytotoxicity of 91 Kenyan indigenous medicinal plants towards human CCRF-CEM leukemia cells.
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Plants from Kenyan flora are traditionally used against many ailments, including cancer and related diseases. Cancer is characterized as a condition with complex signs and symptoms. Recently there are recommendations that ethnopharmacological usages such as immune and skin disorders, inflammatory, infectious, parasitic and viral diseases should be taken into accou...
متن کاملComparison of Cytotoxic Activity of Bile on HepG2 and CCRF-CEM Cell Lines: An in Vitro Study
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of crude bile on the human HepG2 and CCRF-CEM cell lines. Cells were exposed to different dilutions of bile. Antiproliferative effects were determined by the cytotoxic MTT assay. Cells undergoing apoptosis were identified by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. Bile administration resulted in dose-dependent c...
