Effects of nitrous oxide on human cell lines.

چکیده
Hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cell lines cultured in media containing either 5-methyltetrahydrofolate or 5-formyltetrahydrofolate grow well to the same extent. However, when these same cell lines are grown in the presence of nitrous oxide, selective growth inhibition can be shown for hematopoietic cells cultured in 5-methyltetrahydrofolate-containing media. These cells also demonstrated a decreased ability to suppress [3H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA in deoxyuridine suppression tests.

Effects of aqueous saffron extract on nitric oxide production by two human carcinoma cell lines: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) and laryngeal carcinoma (Hep2)
Objective: A number of studies have demonstrated the potential antitumor effects of saffron and its constituents on different malignant cells in vitro. It has been reported that a novel glycoconjugate isolated from corms and callus of saffron possesses cytotoxic activity against different tumor cellswith nitric oxide (NO) production. These data suggest that the cytotoxic effect of saffron extra...
متن کاملP110: Nitrous Oxide and Neuroinflammation
Nitrous oxide was an anaesthetic gas that was used for many years. There were many anaesthetic drugs in operations with many side effects. Nitrous oxide had some side effects too. But it was a safe gas in many times. In hospital personnel who worked in operating rooms exposure to this gas was important. The objective of this study was the introduction of nitrous oxide and neurologic side ...
متن کاملToxicity of nano and bulk forms of cerium oxide in different cell lines
In recent years, nanotechnology has gained serious attention for diagnosis, prevention and treatment roles. In this study we synthesized nanoceria or CeO2NPs (cerium oxide nanoparticles) and compared toxicity of cerium oxide powder in nano and bulk forms in two cancerous and one normal cell lines. The cell lines were cultured in a standard humidified incubator, at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere, ...
متن کاملThe effect of different concentrations of iron oxide nanoparticles on the expression of p53 gene in human amniotic membrane-derived mesenchymal stem cells
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have made extensive advances in nanotechnology. The unique properties of these particles have expanded their application in various fields, including medicine. One of these applications is non-invasive analysis for cell tracking. However, the possibility of toxicity in cells is reported by these nanoparticles. Due to the fact that cellular dam...
متن کاملFolate depletion induced by methotrexate affects methionine synthase activity and its susceptibility to inactivation by nitrous oxide.
We compared the effects of methotrexate (MTX) and nitrous oxide on the methionine (Met) synthase system in two variants of a human glioma cell line. The cells were protected from cytotoxic effect of MTX by adding thymidine and hypoxanthine to the cell culture medium. MTX (0-1 microM) was associated with a dose- and time-dependent reduction in 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-methyl-THF) in both cell...
