Probing the Cell Cycle with Flow Cytometry
نویسندگان
چکیده
Flow cytometry is a versatile technique to study different aspects of the cell cycle from subpopulations of cells to detailed cell kinetic information. In this paper a basic review of cell kinetic parameters is presented followed by detailed descriptions of the different flow cytometric methodologies that can be used to extract pertinent information for a particular study. The methodologies range from simple DNA profile analysis, the use of bromodeoxyuridine to cell cycle-associated proteins such as the cyclins.

متن کاملEffects of berberine on proliferation, cell cycle distribution and apoptosis of human breast cancer T47D and MCF7 cell lines
Objective(s):Berberine, a naturally occurring isoquinoline alkaloid, has shown antitumor properties in some in vitro systems. But the effect of berberine on breast cancer has not yet been completely studied. In this study, we evaluated anticancer properties of berberine in comparison to doxorubicin. Materials and Methods: The antiproliferative effects of berberine and doxorubicin alone and in ...

In our search for new anticancer medicinal plants, the antiproliferative activity of the methanol extract of Daphne mucronata (Thymelaeaceae) was evaluated using human myelogenous leukemia K562 cells. The cells responded to plant treatments in a dose dependent manner and the IC50 of the crude extract (equivalent to 1 g of plant leaves powder per ml) and the purified active component were found ...
