Sensitivity of Human Leukemic Cells to Carvedilol
Background and Objective: Carvedilol, a non-specific β-blocker, has been used for treatment of hypertension, stroke and congestive heart failure. The therapeutic effects of β blockers in cancer patients have been shown. Carvedilol has considerable anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic properties. In this study, the effects of carvedilol on proliferation of human U937 and Molt-4 leuk...
متن کاملMitochondrial Dysfunction in Human Leukemic Stem/Progenitor Cells
Leukemic stem cells (LSCs) reside within bone marrow niches that maintain their relatively quiescent state and convey resistance to conventional treatment. Many of the microenvironmental signals converge on RAC GTPases. Although it has become clear that RAC proteins fulfill important roles in the hematopoietic compartment, little has been revealed about the downstream effectors and molecular me...
متن کاملCytotoxicity of Metoprolol on Leukemic Cells in Vitro
Background: β-Blockers have shown considerable cytotoxic, anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic effects. Metoprolol, a β-Blocker with anti-inflammation, anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic properties has been widely used for treatment of some cardiovascular diseases such as angina, hypertension, heart failure and myocardial infraction. Limited data exist about the cytotoxic effects of metoprolol on human c...
متن کاملLeukemic stem cells show the way.
The blood-related cancer leukemia was the first disease where human cancer stem cells (CSCs), or leukemic stem cells (LSCs), were isolated. The hematopoietic system is one of the best tissues for investigating cancer stem cells, since the developmental hierarchy of normal blood formation is well defined. Leukemia can now be viewed as aberrant hematopoietic processes initiated by rare leukemic s...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stem Cells Do Not Suppress Lymphoblastic Leukemic Cell Line Proliferation
Background: Several studies have demonstrated the immunosuppresive effects of mes-enchymal stem cells (MSCs) in allogeneic or mitogenic interactions. Cell-cell contact inhibition and secretion of suppressive soluble factors have been suggested in this re-gard. Objective: To investigate if adipose derived MSCs could inhibit Jurkat lym-phoblastic leukemia T cell proliferation during coculture. Me...
