[ 1 ] - Evaluation of the circulating levels of IL-12 and IL-33 in patients with breast cancer: influences of the tumor stages and cytokine gene polymorphisms
Objective(s):IL-12 as an anti-tumor cytokine and IL-33 a novel identified cytokine with both pro- or anti-tumor activities, play important roles in response against tumor cells. Our aim was to evaluate the IL-12 and IL-33 levels and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in their genes in patients with breast cancer. Materials and Methods:Blood samples were collected from 100 patients with breas...
[ 2 ] - Whole Tumor Cell Vaccine Adjuvants: Comparing IL-12 to IL-2 and IL-15
Cancer immunotherapy (passive or active) involves treatments which promote the ability of the immune system to fight tumor cells. Several types of immunotherapeutic agents, such as monoclonal antibodies, immune checkpoint inhibitors, non-specific immunomodulatory agents, and cancer vaccines are currently under intensive investigation in preclinical and clinical trials. Cancer vaccines induce pe...
[ 3 ] - Positional Relationship between Natural Killer Cells and Distribution of Sympathetic Nerves in Decidualized Mouse Uterus
Background: Uterine natural killer (uNK) cells are the most abundant leukocytes in pre-implantation endometrium and early pregnancy deciduas in humans and rodents. They are associated with structural changes in maternal spiral arteries but regulation of their re-cruitment and activation is incompletely understood. The major subpopulation of uNK cells in humans expresses CD56, the neural cell ad...
[ 4 ] - Apoptosis induction in acute promyelocytic leukemia cells through upregulation of CEBPα by miR-182 blockage
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) involved in regulation of the genes. The CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-α (CEBPα) is a crucial transcription factor for normal hematopoiesis and cell cycle that frequently disrupted in human acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The miR-182 up-regulation in several malignant diseases such as AML was reported, in the other hand bioinformatics analysis revealed CEBPα targeted by miR-18...

[ 6 ] - مقایسه اثر باکتری‌های استارتر ماست و لاکتوباسیلوس بولگاریکوس بر فعالیت سلول‌های مونونوکلئار خون محیطی بیماران مبتلا به کولیت اولسراتیو
سابقه و هدف: کولیت اولسراتیو، بیماری التهابی روده است که روده بزرگ و راست‌روده را درگیر می‌کند.از آنجائیکه بیماران مبتلا به کولیت اولسراتیو، سطوح بالایی از سایتوکاین‌های پیش التهابی و ضد التهابی ترشح می‌کنند، هدف از این مطالعه مقایسه اثر باکتری‌های استارتر ماست و لاکتوباسیلوس بولگاریکوس بر فعالیت سلول‌های مونونوکلئار خون محیطی بیماران مبتلا به کولیت اولسراتیو می‌باشد. مواد و روشها: این مطالع...
[ 7 ] - HOTAIR Induces the Downregulation of miR-200 Family Members in Gastric Cancer Cell Lines
Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is the fourth most common human malignancy and the second reason for cancer morbidity worldwide. Long noncoding RNA (LncRNA) HOX transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) has recently emerged as a promoter of metastasis in various cancer types, including GC, through the epithelial‑mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. However, the exact mechanism of HOTAIR in promoting E...
