Evaluation of Iranian Snake ‘Macrovipera lebetina’ Venom Cytotoxicity in Kidney Cell Line HEK-293

Background:Envenomation by Macrovipera lebetina (M. lebetina) is characterized by prominent local tissue damage, hemorrhage, abnormalities in the blood coagulation system, necrosis, and edema. However, the main cause of death after a bite by M. lebetina has been attributed to acute renal failure (ARF). It is unclear whether the venom components have a direct or indirect action in causing ARF. T...

The ethics of HEK 293.

1 Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Donum vitae (February 2, 1987), Introduction, 5. 2 Ibid., I, 1. The topic of embryonic stem cells is very much in the forefront of public interest. The moral stance on obtaining stem cells from embryos is clear: The Church has always taught that all human life from the very beginning must be respected and protected. If human embryos are killed to ob...

Myricetin inhibits Kv 1 . 5 channels in HEK 293 cells

Myricetin (Myr) is a f lavonoid that exerts anti-arrhythmic effects. However, its potential effects on ion channels have remained elusive. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of Myr on Kv1.5 channels in HEK293 cells. The current of Kv1.5 channels (Ikur) in HEK293 cells was recorded using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique and the expression of the Kv1.5 protein was mea...
