Antitumor effects of umbelliprenin in a mouse model of colorectal cancer
Authors
Abstract:
Umbelliprenin is a sesquiterpene coumarin with vitro anti-carcinogenic activities. The aim of this study was to investigate the antitumor effects of umbelliprenin in animal models of colorectal cancer. The cytotoxic effects of umbelliprenin were explored on CT26 and L929by MTT assay. In this study, colorectal tumors developed in mice by intradermal injection of CT26 cell line. Tumor size, serum levels of IFN-γ and IL-4 by ELISA, and Ki-67, MMP2, MMP9, VEGF and E-cadherin markers by IHC method were evaluated. The results showed that umbelliprenin inhibited the cancer cells in a concentration-dependent manner. IC50 Evaluation showed that L929 cells were more resistant to Umbelliprenin than CT26 cells. Umbelliprenin treatment in both tumor-bearing mice and control normal mice showed significantly increased IFN-γ and decreased IL-4(P

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
critical period effects in foreign language learning:the influence of maturational state on the acquisition of reading,writing, and grammar in english as a foreign language
since the 1960s the age effects on learning both first and second language have been explored by many linguists and applied linguists (e.g lennerberg, 1967; schachter, 1996; long, 1990) and the existence of critical period for language acquisition was found to be a common ground of all these studies. in spite of some common findings, some issues about the impacts of age on acquiring a second or...

Background and Purpose: Patulin is a mycotoxin produced by some molds,especially Aspergillus and Penicilium, and is responsible for mycotoxicosis in animals and humans.There is still not very detailed data about the anti-cancer potency of patulin, but some reports demonstrated that it induces cellular apoptosis and toxicity. Materials and Methods: To determine the efficacy of patulin as a ther...
full textCombination of oncolytic adenovirus and luteolin exerts synergistic antitumor effects in colorectal cancer cells and a mouse model
In recent years, oncolytic viruses have attracted increasing interest due to their potent antitumor effects. Luteolin, a natural product, has additionally been observed to exhibit various pharmacological antitumor activities. Previously, a novel dual‑targeting oncolytic adenovirus, complement decay‑accelerating factor (CD55)‑tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 10 (TRAIL), was constr...
