Introduction: Profilin1 (PFN1) is a ubiquitously expressed protein known for its function as a regulator of actin polymerization and dynamics. A recent discovery linked mutant PFN1 to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), which is a fatal and progressive motor neuron disease. We have also demonstrated that Gly118Val mutation in PFN1 is a cause of ALS, and the formation of aggregates containing m...

BACKGROUND Agiogenesis is the development of new blood vessels from pre-existing vasculatures. Although essential in the physiological process, it becomes pathological in various diseases including cancer. Preventing the formation of new blood vessels causes reductions in tumor size and metastasis. This study has been undertaken to elucidate the anti-angiogenesis effects of ICD-85 (derived pept...

angiogenesis, formation of new blood vessels, play an important role in some diseases such as cancer and its metastasis. using angiogenesis inhibitors, therefore, is one of the ways for cancer treatment and prevention of metastasis. medicinal plants have been shown to play a major role in the treatment of a variety of cancers. in this direction, cytotoxic and angiogenic effects of oleo gum resi...

Background: Radiotherapy is an established therapeutic modality for prostate cancer. Resveratrol, a natural antioxidant, has been shown to inhibit carcinogenesis and to block the process of tumor initiation and progression. No data is available on the response of cellular spheroid to Reseveratol. In this study we have examined the effect of Resveratol on the radiation response of human p...
