Chlorpyrifos (CP), an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, is used throughout the world as an insecticide in agriculture and an eradicating agent for termites around homes. In this present study, CP is considered as an oxidative agent which we examine the protective role of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) in CP-treated lymphocytes of human. Lymphocytes isolated by Ficoll and exposed to 75 ...

dried aceton-chloroform extract of aerial parts of euphorbia spinidens bornm. ex prokh. endemic to iran, yielded two new triterpenoids, lup-20(29)-ene-33, 28 diol commonly known as betulin and (3β,23e)-cycloarta-23-ene-3,25-diol. the structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by 13 c- and 1 h-nmr as well as 2d-nmr, ir and by the aid of mass fragmentation pattern. in phagocyte chemilum...

background: exposure to ionizing radiation is known to induce oxidative stress followed by damage to critical biomolecules like lipids, proteins and dna through radiolysis of cellular water. since radiation has been widely used as an important tool in therapy of cancer, the detailed investigation regarding the dna damage and repair kinetics would help to predict the radiation sensitivity of cel...

Primary human T lymphocytes are powerful targets for genetic modification, although the use of these targets in human gene therapy protocols has been hampered by low levels of transduction. We have shown previously that significant increases in the transduction of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells with retroviral vectors can be obtained by the colocalization of the retrovirus and target c...

We studied the anti-tumor effect of control human lymphocytes and interleukin-2 (IL-2) activated lymphocytes (lymphokine activated killer cells, LAK-cells), on two different cell lines: SW742 human colon adenocarcinoma and K562 human myeloid leukaemia cell line. Our results indicate that IL-2 augment the anti-tumor activity of human lymphocytes and these LAK-cells lyse the tumor cells very effi...

Bone-marrow-derived (B) and thymus-derived (T) lymphocytes can be distinguished by the presence of a number of receptors and differentiation antigens. The presence of these markers has facilitated the identification and characterization of the mononuclear cells in a number of animal and human lymphoid malignancies. We describe here the immunological properties of human leukemia cells that are h...
