The WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) gene which encompasses the common human fragile site FRA16D has been proposed as a putative tumor suppressor gene, and loss of WWOX expression has been found in several types of solid cancer. As the role of WWOX in human leukemia has not yet been fully elucidated, the present study examined the expression of WWOX in patients with different types of...

background: radiation-induced bystander effect is a response which results in damage in non-irradiated cells in response to signals from the irradiated cells. the aim of the present study was to investigate microwave-induced bystander effect from a gsm mobile phone simulator on induction of apoptosis in jurkat cell line. materials and methods: jurkat cells were divided into three groups of non-...


 Purpose: To determine the effect of fresh soy milk and its compounds (coumestrol, daidzein genistein) on apoptosis in human leukemic cells peripheral blood mononuclear (PBMC).
 Methods: The apoptotic (K562, Jurkat, U937) PBMC was determined by flow cytometry. from healthy donors were isolated conducting density gradient centrifugation principle. Lymphoprep cytotoxicity evaluated 3-(...

Abstract Central nervous system (CNS) involvement remains a challenge in the diagnosis and treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In this study, we identify CD79a (also known as Ig?), signaling component preB cell receptor (preBCR), to be associated with CNS-infiltration –relapse B-cell precursor (BCP)-ALL patients. Furthermore, show that downregulation hampers engraftment cells diffe...

Early T-cell precursor leukemia (early precursor, ETP-ALL) is a new subvariant of acute lymphoblastic (ALL). Tumor blasts have unique phenotype, including signs both stem and myeloid cells. This fact significantly complicates differential diagnosis. Cytogenetic molecular biological features cells in ETP-ALL are the most important diagnostic criteria. Nowadays leading scientific international gr...

abstract the antineoplastic activities of alcoholic and aqueous extracts of the roots, stems and leaves of isatis campylocarpa an endemic species of the brassicaceae family from iran, investigated on the growth of jurkat as an acute lymphocytic leukemia cell line, k562 as a chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line and fen as a bladder cancer cell line using colorimetric assay. results showed that...

OBJECTIVES T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematologic malignant tumor. Administration of chemical compounds influencing apoptosis and T cell development has been discussed as promising novel therapeutic strategies. Valproic acid (VPA) as a recently emerged anti-neoplastic histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor and pioglitazone (PGZ) as a high-affinity peroxisome prol...

Abstract In this paper, the bovine serum albumin protected gold nanozymes (BSA-Au nanozymes) were utilized as a novel nanodrug for treatment of acute T-type lymphoblastic leukemia (Jurkat) by production excessive ROS and effect on expression anti-apoptotic genes. The BSA-Au Bcl-2 survivin in Jurkat cell line was checked. results showed that genes significantly reduced after with (p-value 0.001)...

Lapatinib is an oral-form dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR or ErbB/Her) superfamily members with anticancer activity. In this study, we examined the effects and mechanism of action of lapatinib on several human leukemia cells lines, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells. We fou...
