چکیده
In coculture experiments of HeLa cells with normal human fibroblasts, the parameters cell:cell ratio and feeding frequency can be monitored in a way that the growth of fibroblasts can flourish to the point where fibroblasts attack and destroy cancer cells.

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...
