plant-based drugs are regarded promising recently. scrophularia has been shown various biological activities such as antimicrobial, antitumor and anti-inflammatory properties. according to pervious researches, bacteria are becoming resistant to some kinds of antibiotics, so it is prominent to find more reliable sources against them. here staphylococcus aureus as a common type of gram- positive ...

objective(s): this study was designed to indicate whether different fractions from artemisia biennis hydroethanolic extract could provide cytoprotection against oxidative stress and apoptosis induced by doxorubicin (dox) in rat pheochromocytoma cell line (pc12). material and methods:cell viability was determined by mtt assay. also, activation of caspase-3 and superoxide dismutase were evaluated...

introduction: low level laser therapy (lllt) also known as photobiomodulation, is a treatment that uses low-level lasers or light-emitting diodes (leds) to change cellular function and is a clinically well accepted tool in regenerative medicine and dentistry. considering the variety of laser, exposure, cells and study types, the exact effects of low level laser therapy seems to be unclear. the ...

objective: understanding gene expression variations by using rna transcript analysis methods during hepatic viral protein interactions with the ifn pathway in hepatic cell lines has recently gained importance. one of the most powerful techniques in gene expression quantification is quantitative real-time rt-pcr. reference genes used as normalizer in this method may be affected across various ex...

Abstract Background and Aims: To identify and isolation of viruses a susceptible cell is need which can be primary or line. The use of primary cells is laborious, time consuming and expensive, while the use of cell lines is much easier and faster. IRKHBK cell line was originated from primary cells of bovine kidney by continuous passage. The aim of this study was to introduce the IRKHBK cell ...

objective: glut4 is a type of glucose transporter and plays a central role in whole-body metabolism of carbohydrates. the muscle is the major site of glut4 and cell line models, to explore glut4 behaviors under new therapeutic approach, such as herbal components, should be evaluated. here, c2c12 cell line is evaluated for glut4 translocation from intracellular compartment into the cell membrane...

application of nanotechnology in medicinal and biological fields has attracted a great interest in the recent yeras. in this paper the cell membrane leakage induced by iron nanoparticles (fe-np) against pc12 cell line which is known as a model of nervous system cell line was investigated by the lactate dehydrogenase (ldh) test. therefore, pc12 cells were incubated with different concentration o...
