چکیده
Vitamin D3: 1-alpha, 25(OH)2D3 (calcitriol), 22-oxa-1,25(OH)2D3 (OCT), cholecalciferol (vitamin D3), and retinoids: all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and 9-cis retinoic acid, induced morphological changes in POS canine osteosarcoma cells into elongated, spindle or fibroblast like-shaped cells, and apoptotic like cell death characterized by cell shrinkage, condensation and margination of the nucleus for all drugs at 10(-6)M-10(-9)M after 72 to 120 hr culture. Apoptosis as shown by DNA laddering was induced at 48 hr by all drugs at 10(-6)M, 10(-7)M at 96 hr, 10(-8)M and 10(-9)M at 120 hr respectively. These vitamins are suggested to adjunct antineoplastic agents in canine osteosarcoma therapy by induction of apoptosis.

Vitamin D Receptor, Retinoid X Receptor, Ki-67, Survivin, and Ezrin Expression in Canine Osteosarcoma
Canine osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive malignant bone tumor. Prognosis is primarily determined by clinical parameters. Vitamin D has been postulated as a novel therapeutic option for many malignancies. Upon activation, vitamin D receptors (VDRs) combine with retinoid receptor (RXR) forming a heterodimer initiating a cascade of events. Vitamin D's antineoplastic activity and its mechanism of ...
متن کاملInfluence of vitamin D on cell cycle, apoptosis, and some apoptosis related molecules in systemic lupus erythematosus
Objective(s):Genetic and environmental factors are involved in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Autoreactive lymphocytes are cleared through apoptosis and any disturbance in the apoptosis or clearance of apoptotic cells may disturb tolerance and lead to autoimmunity. Vitamin D has anti-proliferative effects and controls cell cycle progression. In this study we investigate...

Background: Skin cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer and melanoma is the deadliest kind of skin cancer in the world. Due to enhanced induction of apoptosis and ROS levels, low-level lasers can be utilized to destroy skin cancer cells. Lasers are used to treat some skin lesions. Vitamin A is beneficial in the prevention and treatment of skin cancer. Vitamin A inhibits the pathway of canc...

متن کاملMolecular Mechanisms of Luteolin Induced Growth Inhibition and Apoptosis of Human Osteosarcoma Cells
Luteolin is a flavone in medicinal plants as well as some vegetables and spices. It is a natural anti-oxidant with less pro-oxidant potential but apparently with a better safety profile. The purpose of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanism of luteolin-mediated apoptosis of MG-63 human osteosarcoma cells. MTT assay kit was employed to evaluate the effects of luteolin on MG-63 cel...
