Onopordum cynarocephalum induces apoptosis and protects against 1,2 dimethylhydrazine-induced colon cancer.
The potential chemopreventive properties of the crude extract of Onopordum cynarocephalum were evaluated. Growth inhibition was investigated in FHs74Int human normal intestinal cells and ModeK mouse normal intestinal cell line and in two human colon cancer cells HCT-116 (p53+/+) and HT-29 (p53+/-). The extract was not cytotoxic to FHs74Int cells at concentrations 2-fold higher than the IC50 of ...
متن کاملGenistein Induces Apoptosis and Inhibits Proliferation of HT29 Colon Cancer Cells
Soybean isoflavone genistein has multiple anticancer properties and its pro-apoptotic and anti-proliferative effects have been studied in different cancer cells. However, the mechanisms of action of genistein and its molecular targets on human colon cells have not been fully elucidated. Therefore, caspase-3 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) as the main therapeutic targets...
متن کاملBerberine protects against glutamate-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in PC12 and N2a cells
Objective(s): Neurodegenerative diseases have been associated with glutamatergic dysfunction. Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid broadly present in different medicinal herbs, has been reported to have neuroprotective effect. In the present study, the effects of berberine against glutamate-induced oxidative damage and apoptosis were investigated. Materials and Methods: The cultured PC12 and N2a...
متن کاملPortulaca oleracea protects H9c2 cardiomyocytes against doxorubicin-induced toxicity via regulation of oxidative stress and apoptosis
Abstract Background and Objectives: Doxorubicin as an effective chemotherapeutic agent is frequently used in various cancers. Nowadays, the application of doxorubicin is limited due to its cardiotoxic effects. The important mechanism which is involved in the cardiac injury of doxorubicin is the generation of reactive oxygen species; therefore antioxidant compounds may reduce cardiotoxicity. ...
متن کاملRapamycin protects testes against germ cell apoptosis and oxidative stress induced by testicular ischemia-reperfusion
Objective(s):Rapamycin is an immunosuppressant compound with a broad spectrum of pharmaco-logical activities. In recent years, it has been used successfully to decrease ischemia-reperfusion injury in several organ systems. The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of rapamycin on testicular ischemia-reperfusion injury. Materials and Methods: Seventy-two adult male Wistar rats w...
