the objective of this study was to observe the apoptosis-inducing effect and mechanism of baicalin on human cervical cancer hela cells. the inhibitory effect of baicalin on the growth of hela cells was measured by mtt assay, and cell proliferation and migration was analyzed by cell scratch assay. morphological changes of apoptotic cells were viewed by the light microscope and electron microscop...

Buckwheat rutin has been found to be able to inhibit angiotensin II (AngII) - induced hypertrophy in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, but the mechanism remains uncertain. In this study, myocardial hypertrophy model was made by adding AngII to the medium of cardiac myocytes of neonatal rats, meanwhile, different concentrations of buckwheat rutin were applied to observe their effects. Intrac...

signaling pathways are not isolated from their surroundings. they are also intervened by other signaling pathways known as “crosstalk mechanism”. one of the most important crosstalk mechanisms is the insulinegf network. although insulin and epidermal growth factor (egf) networks have some complexity in their isolated forms, their complexities will grow in the crosstalk network. in this study, w...

Objective(s): The Janus kinase-signal transducers and activators of transcription signaling pathway (JAK/STAT pathway) play an important role in proliferation of breast cancer cells. Previous data showed that inhibition of STAT3 suppresses the growth of breast cancer cells, but the associated mechanisms are not well understood. This study aims to investigate the effect and associated mechanisms...

: Metastasis spreading confers a worse prognosis to the clinical outcome among patients suffering from osteosarcoma, most common primary bone tumor in childhood and adolescence. The detection of molecules involved metastasis might contribute understanding dissemination mechanisms, thereby opening way novel therapeutic strategies. Ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM) family proteins are activated after in...
