Molecular basis of parthenolide-dependent proapoptotic activity in cancer cells.
This review outlines the molecular events that accompany the anti-tumor action of parthenolide (PN). Parthenolide (PN) is naturally derived compound, isolated from plant Tanacetum parthenium. PN has been previously shown to withdraw cells from cell cycle or to promote cell differentiation, and finally to induce programmed cell death. Recent advances in molecular biology indicate that this sesqu...
متن کاملMolecular basis of sodium butyrate-dependent proapoptotic activity in cancer cells.
This review outlines the molecular events that accompany the antitumor action of sodium butyrate (NaBt). Butyrate, a low-molecular weight four-carbon chain volatile fatty acid (VFA) has been previously shown to withdraw cells from cell cycle or to promote cell differentiation, and finally to induce programmed cell death. Recent advances in molecular biology indicate, that this product of large ...
متن کاملMolecular Basis of α-Thalassemia in Iran
Alpha-thalassemia (α-thal) is probably the most prevalent monogenic condition in the world. Deletions are the most common types of mutations in α-thal, followed by point mutations and small insertion/deletion. In the context of national screening program for prevention of thalassemia and hemoglobinopathies in Iran, α-thal carriers have come to more attention. Therefore, the fr...
متن کاملThe Molecular Basis of Cisplatin Resistance in Bladder Cancer Cells
Bladder cancer is one of the most common cancers among men and women, with men being twice as likely affected from the disease (Jemal et al., 2005). The most common type of bladder cancer is transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), which is derived from the urothelium and constitutes more than 90 % of all bladder cancers (Bischoff & Clark, 2009). Cisplatinbased combination therapy is the standard the...
متن کاملMolecular Basis of Cancer
• Nonlethal genetic damage lies at the heart of carcinogenesis. Such genetic damage (or mutation) may be acquired by the action of environmental agents, such as chemicals, radiation, or viruses, or it may be inherited in the germ line. The term environmental, used in this context, involves any acquired defect caused by exogenous agents or endogenous products of cell metabolism. Not all mutation...
