Finite Element Analysis of Tissue Conductivity during High-frequency and Low-voltage Irreversible Electroporation
Introduction: Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a process in which the membrane of the cancer cells are irreversibly damaged with the use of high-intensity electric pulses, which in turn leads to cell death. The IRE is a non-thermal way to ablate the cancer cells. This process relies on the distribution of the electric field, which affects the pulse amplitude, width, and electrical conducti...
متن کاملUV-induced apoptosis in resistant HeLa cells.
Recently, apoptosis (genetically programmed cell death) induced by UV has been documented in some cell culture models. However, the significance of apoptosis in UV-induced cytotoxicity and resistance is uncertain. In this study, we investigated the induction of apoptosis in HeLa cells and its role in acquired UV-resistance. The membrane receptor Fas was induced to assembly, and its immediate do...
متن کاملApoptosis induced by dioscin in Hela cells.
Dioscin, a saponin extracted from the root of Polygonatum Zanlanscianense Pamp, markedly inhibited proliferation of Hela cells. The results indicated that Hela cells underwent apoptosis in dose- and time-dependent manners when treated with Dioscin. Caspase-3, -8 and -9 activities were also detected. The low enzymatic activity of caspase-8 and high activity of caspase-9 showed that the mitochond...
متن کاملKnockdown of mitofilin inhibits autophagy and facilitates starvation-induced apoptosis in HeLa cells
Objective(s): Mitofilin contributes to the maintenance of mitochondrial structure and functions. This study was undertaken to determine the mechanisms underlying its regulation of apoptosis. Materials and Methods: Mitofilin was knockdowned by specific short hairpin RNA (shRNA) and the stable HeLa cell clone was selected. The autophagy a...
متن کاملIrreversible electroporation ablation area enhanced by synergistic high- and low-voltage pulses
Irreversible electroporation (IRE) produced by a pulsed electric field can ablate tissue. In this study, we achieved an enhancement in ablation area by using a combination of short high-voltage pulses (HVPs) to create a large electroporated area and long low-voltage pulses (LVPs) to ablate the electroporated area. The experiments were conducted in potato tuber slices. Slices were ablated with a...
