prostate cancer is a devastating disease for which current therapies are inadequate. various lines of evidences have suggested the 5-lipoxygenase (5-lox) pathway and the leukotriene receptor pathway are potential targets for prevention or treatment of prostate cancer. thus, search for new anti-cancer drugs targeting 5-lox and leukotriene is very essential and important. the objective of the pre...

Abstract Background Esophageal cancer is associated with high incidence and mortality worldwide. Differential expression genes (DEGs) weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) are important methods to screen the core as bioinformatics methods. Methods The DEGs WGCNA were combined hub genes, pathway enrichment analyses performed on module in WGCNA. CCNB1 was identified based intersect...

Parthenolide is major Sesquiterpene lactones present in Anthemis haussknechtii Boiss. & Reut. (feverfew). This compound has many effects on different disease such as migrain and cancer. Parthenolide was reported from Tanacetum parthenium (L.) Sch.Bip. but other plants of Asteraceae family could contain parthenolide. In this study parthenolide was extracted and identified with two methods, Fouri...

BACKGROUND Hesa-A is a natural compound with anticancer properties. The exact mechanism of its action in esophageal cancer is not clear, yet. The aim of this study was to evaluate the cell toxicity effect of Hesa-A on the esophageal carcinoma cell lines, KYSE-30, and cell cycle genes expression. METHODS In this study, we tested cell toxicity with MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-Diphenylte...

Background & Aim:Cervical cancer is the most common   female genital cancer and the second most common cancer in women in the   world. Since the herbal ingredients have been used for centuries to treat   cancer, purpose of the present study was to determine the cytotoxic   effect of hydroalcoholic extract from Satureja bachtiarica Bungeon   Hela cancer cells line. ...

psa is a 33-kda serine protease that is produced predominantly by prostate epithelium. however, it has been shown that about 30-40% of female breast tumors produce psa and its production is associated with the presence of estrogen and progesterone receptors. we have now developed a new tissue culture system to study psa production in breast cancer and its association with prognostic factors suc...

background recent studies revealed that tumor-associated macrophages (tams) play a decisive role in the regulation of tumor progression by manipulating tumor oncogenesis, angiogenesis and immune functions within tumor microenvironments. signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (stat3), which is a point of convergence for numerous oncogenic signalling pathways, is constitutively activa...

Esophageal cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. DACT2 is frequently methylated in human lung, hepatic, gastric and thyroid cancers. The methylation status and function of DACT2 remain to be elucidated in human esophageal cancer. Ten esophageal cancer cell lines, 42 cases of dysplasia and 126 cases of primary esophageal cancer samples were analyzed in this study. The expressi...
