چکیده
We report the first synthesis and use of a well defined fluorescent organic nanoparticle (FON), tetraethyl anthracene-9,10-diyl-9,10-bis(phosphonate) [TEABP], as a selective anticancer candidate by apoptosis mediated cancer therapy towards U937 cells together with its unique solvatochromic properties.

Fluorescent Contrast agent Based on Graphene Quantum Dots Decorated Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles for Detecting and Sorting Cancer Cells
Background and Objectives: The inability of classic fluorescence-activated cell sorting to single cancer cell sorting is one of the most significant drawbacks of this method. The sorting of cancer cells in microdroplets significantly influences our ability to analyze cancer cell proteins. Material and Methods: We adapted a developed microfluidic device as a 3D in vitro model to sorted MCF-7 c...
متن کاملThe comparison of the apoptosis effects of titanium dioxide nanoparticles into MDA-MB-231 cell line in microgravity and gravity conditions
Objective (s): Gravity could affect some system features and perform directly as an organizing field factor. Recent investigations have examined the titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) in biomedical applications, mostly in the cancer treatment field. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of simulated microgravity combined with TiO2 NPs in MDA-MB-231 cells proliferation for the first tim...
متن کاملThe effect of Lactobacillus brevis on Apoptosis and casp (casp8, casp3) gene Expression in HeLa Cancer Cells
Background and Aim: Cervical and breast cancer are considered to be the most common cause of death among Iranian women. Various studies have shown that probiotics are effective fighting cancer. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of Lactobacillus brevis on apoptosis and casp (casp3, casp8) gene expression in HeLa cancer cells. Materials and Methods: In this study, L. br...
متن کاملTumor Suppressor p53 Can Protect Normal Cells Against Dendrosomal Curcumin-Induced Apoptosis
Curcumin is a natural substance with anti-cancerous properties without many disadvantages of currently-used anticancer drugs. Its toxicity is significantly higher in tumor cells compared with normal cells. We hypothesized the difference of p53 function between normal and tumor cells as one of the presumable causes of this phenomenon. We knocked down the expression of p53 in normal fibrobl...
متن کاملIn-vitro Morphological Assessment of Apoptosis Induced by Nimbolide; A Limonoid from Azadirachta Indica (Neem Tree)
The present study was designed to investigate the in-vitro morphological assessment of apoptotic effect caused by nimbolide on the selected cancer cell lines (DU-145, PC-3, A-549) and normal cell lines (NIH3T3, CCD-18Co). The cells were grown in 6 well tissue culture plates after treatment with different concentrations of nimbolide and untreated control cells. Apoptotic and necrotic ce...
