Background & aim: Nanotechnology is a modern research field with broad applications in cancer management. Among the various metal nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been used in cancer therapy due to their promising anti-tumor properties. Despite the great advantages of AgNPs, their effects on normal cells have become a challenge. Besides, their anti-cancer effects have not previo...

Background: Q10 coenzyme is a potent antioxidant in the mitochondrial membrane. Releasing the oxygen free radicals occurs in the cerebral ischemia. Using Q10 coenzyme causes strength against oxidative after injury of cerebral ischemia during reperfusion. Also CoQ10 plays an important anti-apoptotic role to reduce Caspase 3 as a key enzyme neuroprotective in apoptosis. According to the sensitive...

Background and purpose: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is ranked as the second most common cancer in men and the third most common cancer in women worldwide. Routine treatments have many side effects and little efficiency. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) on epigenetic changes of some genes involved in CRC progression. Materials and methods: Prolif...

For the purpose of graphical analysis and estimation of genetic parameters related to yield and its components, six tobacco genotypes was crossed in half -diallel mating design. In this study, the F2 progenies and their parents were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The results of analysis of variance indicated a significant difference between genotypes fo...
