The present study investigated the possible protective effects of melatonin on Bleomycin, Cisplatin and etoposide (BEP) chemotherapy regimens using immunohistochemistry. Forty male Wistar rats were divided into four groups ten as; group 1 as untreated control; 2 BEP which received three cycles 21 days’ regimen each 0.5¥ dose levels ofBEP (bleomycin 0.75 mg/kg, 7.5 mg/kg cisplatin 1.5 mg/kg)....

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are undifferentiated with the ability of multi-potency, pluripotency, and self-renewal. MSCs show great promise in cancer therapy due to their unique features. MSC secrete various cytokines multifunctional properties, although roles unclear. Methods: We have investigated influence secreted from on KG-1 as a cell model acute myeloid leukemia (AML). For t...

Anti-PD1 therapy revolutionized melanoma treatment, yet low response rates and immune-related adverse events remain a major concern. Caspase-1 inflammasome is autonomously active in known to promote tumor progression. Therefore, we investigated its role immunotherapy resistance melanoma. The pharmacological inhibition of caspase-1 augmented mouse (B16F10 YUMM1.7) anti-PD1 vivo. combination stud...

Mononuclear phagocytes utilize caspase-1 activation as a means to respond to danger signals. Although caspase-1 was discovered using highly concentrated cell extracts that spontaneously activate caspase-1, it is now clear that in live cell models caspase-1 activation occurs in the process of its cellular release and is not an intracellular event. Therefore, we compared the characteristics of ca...
