Transcriptional effects of metal ions on the bovine oxytocin and the thymidine kinase-ERE promoter through the estrogen receptor a in MDA-MB 231 breast cancer cell line
BACKGROUND: Some of metal ions as environmental pollutants show estrogenic activity. This xenostrogenic compounds can be caused carcinogenicity in organs. The mechanism of carcinogenicity of metal ions is not clarified. OBJECTIVES: In this study, we investigated the Transcriptional effects of variety of metal ions on the bovine oxytocin and the thymidine kinase-ERE promoter by estrogen receptor...
متن کاملEffective Factors and Molecular Mechanisms of Heavy Metal Bioremediation Using Cyanobacteria
The sustainability and non-biodegradability of heavy metals, on the one hand, and the increasing environmental pollution caused by industrial wastewater on the other hand have increased the attention to heavy metal remediation. Cyanobacteria are one of the most important agents of heavy metals removal in drought and aquatic environments. Their ability to remove metals is related to various mech...
متن کاملToxic metal removal from aqueous solution by advanced Carbon allotropes: a case study from the Sungun Copper Mine
The sorption efficiencies of graphene oxide (GO) and functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs) were investigated and elucidated to study their potential in treating acid mine drainage (AMD) containing Cu2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, Pb2+, Fe3+ and Cd2+ metal ions. Several layered GO nanosheets and f-MWCNTs were formed via the modified Hummers’ method and the acid treatment of the MWCNTs, respec...

The metal ions constituents in plants reliable for determination of their medicinal, nutritional and toxicity properties. A novel, simple and accurate spectrophotometric method was developed for the simultaneous determination of Ag+, Cu2+ and Ni2+ ions in different medicinal plants without prior separation steps. This method was based on the different kinetic characteristics between the reactio...
متن کاملSynthesis of Polyvinyltetrazole by Combination of Free Radical Polymerization and Click Chemistry for Adsorption of Pb (II) in Aqueous Solution
Polyvinyltetrazole (PVT) is produced from acrylonitrile (AN) monomer by using free-radicalpolymerization and Click Chemistry methods. The resulting polymer with a broad range of tetrazolegroup contents was conveniently synthesized through [3+ 2] azide-nitrile cycloaddition reaction ofnitrile-containing polymer with sodium azide in DMF. The prepared PVT was characterized by13CN...
متن کاملSeparation of heavy metal Nickel (II) using a new nano adsorbent string GZ-BAKI-TAC-Ni-88 from Ni contaminated Water using beshel tire activated Carbon
Toxicity has occurred in workers exposed to nickel dust or nickel carbonyl formed in refining. Increased risk of nasal and lung cancers was linked to occupational nickel exposure before current workplace safety standards were set. Activated carbon with nano holes used for removing contaminants in environment. The purpose of this work is preparation a new nano-absorber, GZ-BAKI-TAC-Ni-88, for th...
