Natural products isolated from plant sources are well known for their pharmacological potential in diversity of disease treatments such as inflammatory or cancer conditions. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) and Juglans regia are thought to be rich of functional phytochemicals. To elucidate the anticancer activity of Juglans regia (JR) and Mangifera indica L (MI) aqueous extract were investigated on ...

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative and autoimmune disease that it’s molecular etiology and factors involving in its progression remains unknown. In this study for evaluation effect of mercuric on progression of MS we investigated the additive effect of mercuric sulfide on the brain mitochondrial dysfunction in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model of MS in C57BL/6 mi...

Arsenic exposure mainly through food and water has been shown to be associated with increased incidence of numerous cancers and non-cancer harmful health. It is also used in cancer chemotherapy and treatment of several cancer types due to its apoptogenic effects in the various cancer and normal cell lines. We have already reported that liver is the storage site and important target organ in As ...

Background and objectives: Black cumin is a herbaceous plant with scientific name Nigella sativa, that contains compounds such as fixed oils, proteins, alkaloids, saponins and essential oils. It has numerous health benefits including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In the current study, we have evaluated the cytotoxic effects of compounds isolated from th...

It has already been reported that muscle necrosis induced by various phenylenediamine derivatives are correlated with their autoxidation rate. Now in a more detailed investigation of the cytotoxic mechanism using a model system of isolated hepatocytes and ring-methylated structural isomer durenediamine (DD) we have shown that under aerobic conditions, phenylenediamine induced cytotoxicity and R...

Introduction: The neuroprotective role of opioid morphine against 6-hydroxydopamineinduced cell death has been demonstrated. However, the exact mechanism(s) underlying such neuroprotection, especially the role of subtype receptors, has not yet been fully clarified. Methods: Here, we investigated the effects of different opioid agonists on 6-OHDA-induced neurotoxicity in human neuroblastoma...
