background- cd24 is a cell adhesion molecule that has been implicated in metastatic tumor progression cells. our aim was clarify correlation between cd24 expression and camp:cgmp ratio in murine colorectal cancer cell line (ct26) after using cholera toxin. materials and methods- the ct26 cells were cultured in microtubes for assaying camp and cgmp; also the cells were cultured in flasks for ass...

objective(s):breast cancer is an important leading cause of death from cancer. stathmin and tau proteins are regulators of cell motility, and their overexpression is associated with the progression and bad prognosis of breast cancer. memantine, an n-methyl-d-aspartate (nmda) receptor antagonist, is the potential inhibitor of tau protein in neurons. this study determines the effect of memantine ...

Abstract Boswellia has been widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of different diseases such as cancer in Iran. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the gum methanol extract of Boswellia thurifera on the viability and P53 gene expression of cultured breast cancer cells. The gum methanol extract was obtained in various concentrations using the maceration method. No...

Cancer is a big global problem and is one of the top and main causes of mortality in developed countries. Many of the current treatments and anticancer therapeutics have problems with severe side effects and on the other hand, the drug resistance is also another obstacle in the cancer chemotherapy. Hence, there is a strong demand for the discovery and development of effective new antineopla...

Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world. Despite advances in the diagnosis and treatment, overall survival of patients still remains poor. Hence, there is an urgent need for development of new anticancer agents. Considering promising biological activity of 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives, in the present study, synthesis and cytotoxicity assessment of new derivatives of this ring ...

Introduction: For thousands of years, plants have been used as the main source of drug worldwide. Recently, it has been found out that the plant Artemisia annua and especially its derivatives such as artemether have anticancer properties. Methods: In this study, the anticancer effect of artemether on MCF-7 breast cancer cell line was examined. MTT assay was used to assess the viability of c...

background & aim:breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women after lung cancer. given that the herbal ingredients are used for centuries to treat cancer,the aim of this study was to determine the cytotoxic effect of hydroalcholic extract from thymus daenesiscelak on mcf-7 cancer cells line. experimental: breast cancer cells mcf-7 and natural fibroblast cells were cultured in dmem me...

our previous studies revealed an inhibitory effect of icd-85 (venom derived peptides) on breast cancer cell line mda-mb231. icd-85 was also confirmed by in-vivo studies to suppress the breast tumor in mice. however, the exact mechanism of icd-85 was unknown. hence, the present study was undertaken to assess the mechanism of icd-85 effect as an anti-proliferative agent of cancer cells. the effec...
