Role of Interleukin-18 in Modulation of Oral Carcinoma Cell Proliferation
Interleukin-18 (IL-18), a proinflammatory cytokine, is produced by oral epithelia and carcinoma cells and implicated in tumor regression. Since its direct biological effect on oral cancer cells is not well defined, in this study, we employed a KB cell line to test IL-18 activity. Recombinant human IL-18 significantly inhibited KB cell proliferation in a dose-dependent fashion (P < .05) without ...
متن کاملSerum Level of Interleukin-6 in Patients with Oral Tongue Squamous cell Carcinoma
Introduction: The clinical outcome of patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) located in the head and neck has remained poor despite ongoing advances in diagnosis and management. Interleukin-6(IL-6) is a multi-functional cytokine that plays an important role in the process of cell differentiation and is increased in several malignancies. The aim of this study was to investigate the serum le...
متن کاملMelatonin antagonizes interleukin‐18‐mediated inhibition on neural stem cell proliferation and differentiation
Neural stem cells (NSCs) are self-renewing, pluripotent and undifferentiated cells which have the potential to differentiate into neurons, oligodendrocytes and astrocytes. NSC therapy for tissue regeneration, thus, gains popularity. However, the low survivals rate of the transplanted cell impedes its utilities. In this study, we tested whether melatonin, a potent antioxidant, could promote the ...
متن کاملPrevalence of Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Mazandaran, Iran 2016-18
Background and purpose: Cancer is highly prevalent in modern societies and approximately one in three or four people is diagnosed with cancer. Oral cancer is one of the 10 primary causes of mortality due to late detection for many reasons, including being asymptomatic in initial stages, clinical presentation similar to other lesions, and variation in clinical manifestations. This study aimed at...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical Evaluation of Fascin in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Background and purpose: Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the eighth most common cancer in men and the fifteenth in women. Localized recurrence and metastasis to regional lymph nodes are major problems in these patients. Fascin is a 55- kDa protein from the family of actin-binding proteins that is expressed in cells with membranous bronchial tubes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the expre...
