[ 1 ] - Valproic Acid-Mediated Reduction of DNA Double-Strand Break Reparation Capacity of Irradiated MCF-7 Cells
Introduction H istone deacetylase inhibitors (HDIs), as radiation sensitizing agents, are considered as a novel class of anti-cancer factors, which are studied in various tumor cell-lines. Valproic acid (VPA) is an HDI, which is effectively used in the treatment of epilepsy, migraines, and some particular types of depression. In this study, we evaluated the effects of VPA and ionizing radiatio...
[ 2 ] - Tumorigenicity of Esophageal Cancer Stem Cells (ECSCs) in nude mouse xenograft model
Background and objectives: Modeling cancer in vivo is a very important tool to investigate cancer pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms involved in cancer progression. Laboratory mice are the most common animal used for rebuilding human cancer in vivo. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are the main reason of failure in cancer therapy because of tumor relapse and metastasis. Isolation of cancer stem cell...
[ 3 ] - Changes in the Radiation Toxicity of Human Lymphoblastic T-cell Line (Jurkat) by a Common Pesticide: Diazinon
Background: Diazinon is one of the most common pesticides in the world playing a similar role to radiation and it could cause DNA breaks and genetic effects.Objective: In this study, radiosensitivity of a lymphoblastic cell line pretreated by Diazinon was investigated. Material and Methods: In this case-control study, the human lymphoblastic T-cell line was divided into 6 groups bas...
