The Phytoalexin Resveratrol Ameliorates Ochratoxin A Toxicity in Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK293) Cells.
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a nephrotoxic mycotoxin produced by Aspergillus and Penicillium fungi. It contaminates human and animal food products, and chronic exposure is associated with renal fibrosis in humans (Balkan endemic nephropathy). Resveratrol, a phytoalexin, possesses anti-cancer and antioxidant properties. We investigated the mechanism of cellular oxidative stress induced by OTA, and the ...
متن کاملLipocalin2 Protects Human Embryonic Kidney Cells against Cisplatin–Induced Genotoxicity
Cisplatin is one of the most useful chemotherapeutics which performs its cytotoxic effectvia accumulation of platinum resulting in oxidative stress, and destruction of cell DNA. Thiscould probably cause secondary cancers in healthy tissues. Lipocalin2 (Lcn2) is a protein whichits expression is increased in oxidative stresses. Therefore, the present study was performedto evaluate the protective ...

متن کاملEffects of Biebersteinia multifida hydro-ethanol extract on proliferation and apoptosis of human prostate cancer and human embryonic kidney cells
Objective: Biebersteinia (Geraniaceae) has a history of use in traditional medicine in some countries including Iran. In the present study, cytotoxic and apoptogenic properties of hydro-ethanol extract of B. multifidi was investigated on human prostate cancer cell lines (PC3 and DU 145) and human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells. Materials and Methods: Cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium...
متن کاملP-113: Survey of In Vitro Effect of Resveratrol on Nitric Oxide Secretion of Human Endometrial Epithelial Cells
Background: Resveratrol is a natural polyphe- nolic compound, synthesized by plants as a phytoalexin and protects against ultraviolet radiation and fungal infection. Nitric oxide is formed from L-arginine through nitric oxide synthases (NOS), a group of enzymes that structurally resemble cytochrome P-450 reductase. In females, circulating NO is increased during follicle development and decrease...
