Possible Regulation of Ldl-receptor by Naringenin in Hepg2 Hepatoma Cell Line
BACKGROUND High plasma concentration of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) plays a significant role in the incidence of atherosclerosis and coronary heart diseases (CHD). MATERIALS AND METHODS The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism by which citrus flavonoids, naringenin regulate the LDL receptor (LDLr) gene in human liver using the human hepatoma cell line, HepG2 ...
متن کاملCytotoxicity of Subtoxic AgNP in Human Hepatoma Cell Line (HepG2) after Long-Term Exposure
Background: We aimed at evaluating the toxicity effects of low (subtoxic) concentrations of silver nanoparticles (AgNP, 5-10 nm) in human hepatoblastoma (HepG2) cell line after and during a period of about one month. Methods: XTT and MTT assays were used to draw a dose-response curve IC50 (half maximal inhibitory concentration) value of the AgNP on HepG2 cells was calculated to be 2.75-3.0 mg/l...
متن کاملAntioxidant Effects of Pinus Eldarica Extracts Against Cisplatin-Induced Cytotoxicity in Human Hepatoma (Hepg2) Cell Line
Background: Cisplatin has cytotoxic effects through free radical generation. Reports indicate that various members of Pinaceae family may have antioxidant properties. In this study we investigated the cytoprotective effects of needle volatile oil and bark extract of Pinus eldarica in hepatoma G2 (HepG2) cell line. Methods: Using the maceration technique, we obtained the ethanolic extract of ...
متن کاملRegulation of human beta-glucuronidase by A23187 and thapsigargin in the hepatoma cell line HepG2.
A novel approach to reducing organ toxicity of anticancer agents is the application of nontoxic glucuronide prodrugs from which the active drug is released by human beta-glucuronidase, an enzyme present at high levels in many tumors. In view of high interindividual variability in beta-glucuronidase expression, regulation of this enzyme is an essential factor modulating bioactivation of glucuron...
متن کاملEffect of Dai-Saiko-To (Da-Chai-Hu-Tang) on LDL-Receptor Gene Expression in Human Hepatoma Cell Line (HepG2)
We previously reported that Dai-saiko-to (Da-Chai-Hu-Tang), a traditional Japanese kampo medicine, increased LDL receptor mRNA expression in the liver of the hypercholesterolemic rabbits. In this study, we focused on LDL receptor gene expression in a human hepatoma cell line (HepG2) treated with Dai-saiko-to extract and the extracts of eight herbs presented in Dai-saiko-to. Dai-saiko-to extract...
