Downregulation of Rap1 promotes 5-fluorouracil-induced apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2.
Recent studies have revealed that repressor/activator protein (Rap1) not only protects telomeres from sister chromatid exchange, but also functions in genomewide transcriptional regulation. Knockdown of Rap1 sensitizes breast cancer cells to adriamycin-induced apoptosis. However, little is known about the role of Rap1 in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The present study aimed...
متن کاملIn Vitro Challenge using Thymoquinone on Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HepG2) Cell Line
Black seed (Nigella sativa) is considered as a biological response modifier. Thymoquinone (TQ) is the bioactive and the most abundant constituent of the volatile oil of this seed which has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-neoplastic effects. In this study, the effect of TQ on HepG2 cell line was investigated in an attempt to identify its potential mechanism of actio...

متن کاملDownregulation of Kinesin Spindle Protein Inhibits Proliferation, Induces Apoptosis and Increases Chemosensitivity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells
Background: Kinesin spindle protein (KSP) plays a critical role in mitosis. Inhibition of KSP function leads to cell cycle arrest at mitosis and ultimately to cell death. The aim of this study was to suppress KSP expression by specific small-interfering RNA (siRNA) in Hep3B cells and evaluate its anti-tumor activity. Methods: Three siRNA targeting KSP (KSP-siRNA #1-3) and one mismatched-siRNA (...
متن کاملEffect of valproic acid on SOCS1, SOCS3, JAK1, JAK2, STAT3, STAT5A, and SOCS5B in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cell line
Background and aim: Aberrant activation of diverse intracellular signaling pathways involved in differentiation, cell growth, apoptosis. These pathways include known oncogenic pathways such as Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway. The JAK/STAT signaling pathway plays an important role in many cellular functions. This pathway can be activated by variou...
