The Effect of Some Herbal Extracts on Nitric Oxide Production in Endothelial Cells 3T3 Cell Line
Introduction: Some studies have demonstrated the potential of herbal drugs for the treatment of various diseases associated with impaired vascular nitric oxide (NO). For diagnosis of the mechanism of these herbal plants, it seems necessary to evaluate the herbal extracts on the Endothelium cell. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of extract of Trigonella foenum-graecum (T.foenum...
متن کاملDevelopment of immortalized human cerebromicrovascular endothelial cell line as an in vitro model of the human blood-brain barrier.
The objective of this study was to generate an immortal cell line representative of specialized human brain microvascular endothelia forming the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in vivo. Human capillary and microvascular endothelial cells (HCEC) were transfected with the plasmid pSV3-neo coding for the SV40 large T antigen and the neomycin gene. The neomycin-resistant transfected cells overcame prolif...
متن کاملGarlic Extract Can Induce Apoptotic Cell Death in The Human Colon Adenocarcinoma HT29 Cell Line
Background and Objective: Garlic has been known worldwide as a dietary constituent with many pharmacological effects. The present in vitro study was designed to investigate the putative anticancer effect of garlic extract on cancer cells, and if this effect was through apoptosis induction. Material and Methods: Human colon adenocarcinoma cells HT29 were treated with different doses (1, 5 a...
متن کاملBlood-brain barrier-specific properties of a human adult brain endothelial cell line.
Establishment of a human model of the blood-brain barrier has proven to be a difficult goal. To accomplish this, normal human brain endothelial cells were transduced by lentiviral vectors incorporating human telomerase or SV40 T antigen. Among the many stable immortalized clones obtained by sequential limiting dilution cloning of the transduced cells, one was selected for expression of normal e...
متن کاملParabens Effects on Estrogenic Receptors of C13 Cell Line
Ovarian cancer is one of the major causes of death in women. Parabens are a class of chemicals widely used as preservatives in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products, they mimic estrogens, which are known to play a role in the development of different cancers in women. The Aim of this study was to investigate the proliferative effects of Methyl Paraben (MP) and Propyl Paraben (PP) on human ovaria...
