چکیده

The objective of the present study was to investigate the anticancer activity of Chinese medicine Caulis Spatholobi extract on multicentric osteosarcoma cells. Ultraviolet spectrophotometry was used to determine the total flavonoid content in each sample; vanillin sulphuric acid assay was used to determine the condensed tannin content in each sample; and the varying degrees of inhibitory activities of ethanol, ethyl acetate and n-butanol extracts of Caulis Spatholobi on human osteosarcoma Saos-2 cells were studied. The results showed that the inhibitory activity of ethyl acetate extract was the highest among the four extracts. The condensed tannin contents of 1.2 mg/mL Caulis Spatholobi water extract, ethanol extract, ethyl acetate extract and petroleum ether extract were 26.23%, 48.36%, 70.18% and 40.51% respectively; and condensed tannin content of 1.5 mg/mL Caulis Spatholobi water extract, ethanol extract, ethyl acetate extract and petroleum ether extract were 4.15%, 5.81%, 8.76% and 7.30% respectively.

Design, Synthesis and Characterization of Nano niosomal Delivery system Containing paclitaxel drug for Drug Delivery to Osteosarcoma Cell Line (Saos-2)

Introduction: Osteosarcoma is one of the cancers that current treatment strategies using chemotherapy drugs have not been very successful due to multiple drug resistance and harmful side effects. The use of nano-niosomal systems in the delivery of paclitaxel is one of the attractive approaches to overcome these limitations. paclitaxel is a powerful anticancer agent used in the treatment of many...

Characterization of osteosarcoma cell lines MG-63, Saos-2 and U-2 OS in comparison to human osteoblasts.

BACKGROUND Osteosarcomas are malignant bone tumors consisting of cells with abnormal cellular functions. Although osteosarcoma-derived cells are commonly used for osteoblastic models, the molecular composition of the osteosarcoma extracellular matrix (ECM) is not well characterized. MATERIALS AND METHODS We compared three osteosarcoma cell lines (MG-63, Saos-2 and U-2 OS) with normal human os...

Experimental study of inhibitory effects of diallyl trisulfide on the growth of human osteosarcoma Saos-2 cells by downregulating expression of glucose-regulated protein 78

Background Diallyl trisulfide (DATS) is a natural organic sulfur compound isolated from garlic that has good anticancer activity according to many previous reports. There are many studies pointing out that DATS can downregulate expression of the glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), which is associated with poor prognosis and drug resistance in various types of human cancers. However, it remain...
