The proapoptotic activities of Bax and Bak limit the size of the neural stem cell pool.

Anticancer Effect of Bovine Lactoferrin on Breast Cancer Cell Line MCF7 and the Evaluation of Bax and Bak Genes Expression Involved in Apoptosis

Temporal Correlation Of Bax Expression And Axotomy-Induced Motoneuronal Apoptosis In Adult Rats: A Morphometric, Ultrastructural And Immunohistochemical Study

  Background and Objective: As apoptotic cell death is extremely involved in physiological development and many pathological situations such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, the understanding of its molecular machinery can be useful in designing new therapeutic strategies. The present study investigated the temporal expression of the proapoptotic protein Bax in adult spinal motoneuron...

Change in the Expression of BAK، FAS، BAX، TNF-A، BCL-2 and Survivin Apoptosis Genes of the Human Breast Adenocarcinoma Cells (MCF-7) by Staphylococcal Enterotoxin B

Introduction: Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies among women. Patients whose suffering from this condition, as a result of the use of conventional therapies often have a poor response to treatment and the relapse among them is frequent. In this study, the effects of staphylococcal enterotoxin type B on BAK، FAS، BAX، TNF-a، BCL-2 و Survivin genes expression in human breast ...

Comparison of BAX and Bcl-2 Expression During Human Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation into Cardiomyocytes and Doxorubicin-induced Apoptosis

Back ground: Although the cell differentiation is an inseparable part of development in multicellular organisms, the regulating molecular pathway of it still is not fully defined. In the other hand, apoptosis is a fundamental physiological process which plays an essential role in a variety of biological events during development. Moreover, recent studies have found that apoptosis shows several ...

Differentiation of Mouse Stem Cells into Neural Cells on PLGA Microspheres Scaffold

       The cellular therapy and nerve tissue engineering will probably become a major therapeutic strategy for promoting axonal growth through injured area in central nervous system and peripheral nervous system in the coming years. The stem cell carrier scaffolds in nerve tissue engineering resulted in strong survival of cells and suitable differentiation into n...
