Cancer is a major global problem and is the second leading cause of mortality in the developed countries.Resistance to current chemotherapeutics and high incidence of adverse effects are the two principal reasons for developing new anticancer agents. Phenylacetamide derivatives can act as potential anticancer agents. Synthesis and screening of 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-N-phenylacetamide derivatives in...

Several cationic antimicrobial peptides demonstrate promising anticancer effects. We have recently described the anticancer properties of LTX-315, a novel synthetic anticancer peptide, against syngeneic B16 melanomas. LTX-315 induced a complete regression of B16 melanomas and systemic protective immune responses following intralesional administration of the peptide.

background some herbal anticancer agents have direct interactions with dna. objectives the present study aimed to investigate the interaction of ctdna with rosemary flowers. materials and methods we used uv-vis, fluorescence and circular dichroism (cd) spectroscopic techniques. results the absorption of dna at 260 nm increased on addition of rosemary. herb extract quench the fluorescence of etb...

some cases of male infertility are due to the destructive side-effects of anticancer treatment methods such as chemo and radiotherapies on germ cell lines. the increase in the survival rate of cancer patients who undergo treatment, especially children, has drawn attention to fertility preservation. the most common and effective technique in preserving male fertility is sperm freezing and its su...

Background & Aim:According to globally development of stomach cancer especially in Ardabil, Iran, as the second major cause of mortality throughout the world, increased drug-resistant bacteria including Helicobacter pylori as the most important risk factors for stomach cancer, and side effects of antibiotics and chemical drugs normally used to treat. Expe...

objective(s):multidrug resistance (mdr) of cancer cells is a major obstacle to successful chemotherapy. overexpression of breast cancer resistance protein (bcrp) is one of the major causes of mdr. in addition, it has been shown that pi3k/akt signaling pathway involves in drug resistance. therefore, we evaluated the effects of novel approaches including sirna directed against bcrp and targeted t...

p28 and nrc peptides are two anticancer peptides with various mechanisms have shown to be effective against breast cancer. therefore, it seems that construction of a chimeric protein containing the two peptides might cause synergistic cytotoxic effects. however, since the two peptides bear opposite charges, production of a chimeric protein in which the two moieties do not intervene each other i...

abstract cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide. current anticancer drugs involve various toxic side effects; efforts are ongoing to develop new anticancer agents especially from the screening of natural compounds. present study investigated cytotoxic effects and mode of cell death induced by the caspian cobra venom in some human cancer cell lines. cytotoxic effects of snake venom toxin...
