Down-regulation of HSP40 gene family following OCT4B1 suppression in human tumor cell lines
Objective(s): The OCT4B1, as one of OCT4 variants, is expressed in cancer cell lines and tissues more than other variants and plays an important role in apoptosis and stress (heat shock protein) pathways. The present study was designed to determine the effects of OCT4B1 silencing on expressional profile of HSP40 gene family expression in three different human tumor cell lines. Materials and Met...
متن کاملEffects of edible bird's nest (EBN) on cultured rabbit corneal keratocytes
BACKGROUND There has been no effective treatment or agent that is available for corneal injury in promoting corneal wound healing. Previous studies on edible bird's nest extract (EBN) had reported the presence of hormone-like substance; avian epidermal growth factor that could stimulate cell division and enhance regeneration. This study aimed to investigate the effects of EBN on corneal keratoc...
متن کاملEdible bird's nest extract inhibits influenza virus infection.
Edible bird's nest (EBN) is the nest of the swift that is made from its saliva. Although EBN has been widely used for enhancing immunocompetence, its antiviral efficacy has not been studied in detail. We found that EBN extract could strongly inhibit infection with influenza viruses in a host range-independent manner when it was hydrolyzed with Pancreatin F. Western blotting assay showed that th...
متن کاملCLONING AND EXPRESSION OF LEISHMANOLYSIN GENE FROM LEISHMANIA MAJOR IN PRIMATE CELL LINES
Leishmanolysin is a worldwide disease that is caused by different species of the genus Leishmania. Leishmanolysin, One of the genes expressed by Leishmania, appears to be an ideal candidate for genetic vaccination. In this study, a full length sequence, which encodes Leishmanolysin functionally critical regions (amino acids 100-579), was cloned from a Leishmania strain endemic to Iran. Analysis...
متن کاملEffect of curcumin and sorafenib on AKT gene expression in KG1 and U937 cell lines
Abstract Background and Objectives Acute myeloid leukemia is a heterozygous hematologic malignancy that is manifested by the accumulation of hematopoietics stem cells in peripheral blood and bone marrow. Anticancer effects and cryotoxic activity of curcumin have been proven frequently in many cancers. Sorafenib is known as an inhibitor of angiogenesis which prevent cells’ survival. In the...
