current therapies for breast cancer are often limited by short-term efficacy due to the emergence of drug resistance. there has been increased interest in the use of naturally occurring compounds with chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic effects in the treatment of cancers. saffron, dry stigmas crocus sativus l., used in iran as a spice, is known for its anticancer properties. in this study, th...

 ABSTRACT Background: The aims of this study were to assay the activity of adenosine deaminase (ADA) in estrogen receptor positive (MCF-7) and negative (MDA-MB468) breast cancer cell lines. Methods: MDA-MB468 and MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines were cultured in complete medium, striped serum with and without 0.0 1~-LM diethylstilbestrol (DES), complete medium in the presence and absence of 111M ...

In this study, we compared the effects of terpinolene against anti-cancer agent cisplatin on proliferation, apoptotic activity and intracellular ROS (reactive oxygen species) production in cancerous (MCF-7) non-cancerous (HEK-293) cell lines. Cisplatin presented a strong growth-inhibitory effect both MCF-7 (IC25: 18.77 µM) HEK-293 15.03 The was found to be weaker than 291.18 µM for 345.35 HEK 2...

We performed a detailed cancer VS normal analysis to explore the expression and prognostic value of minichromosome maintenance (MCM) proteinsin human sarcoma. The mRNA levels MCM family genes in sarcoma were analyzed using data from ONCOMINE, GEPIA CCLE databases. KEGG database was used analyze function MCM2–7 complex DNA replication cell cycle. QRT-PCR western blot confirm differential key MCM...
