introduction: cell culture is a process in which the cells ware isolated from original tissue, dispersed in liquid media and then placed in culture plate where the cells adhere together and propagate. today, this method is used for assessment of cell toxicity, its mechanisms and effect of different compounds on intracellular components. methods: clonogenic assay was used for assessment of cell ...

Toxicity bioassays are important tools to determine biological effects of chemical agents on species. The questions remained on, what effects have been imposed on each of the different molecular site of cells by chemical exposure and how to find a pattern for chemical toxicity. To address the questions, HepG2 cell lines were exposed to the different concentrations of cisplatin for 24 hours to r...

conclusions the pattern of pretreatment with o2 could change this potential and highly protective strategy against cp-induced nephropathy to an ineffective or even mildly deteriorating one. therefore, o2 administration before cp injection to patients with cancer, for therapeutic purposes or as a preconditioning approach, should be performed and investigated with caution until exact effects of d...

objective(s) portulaca oleracea l. is a herbaceous weed from portulacaceae family. it can be found in many parts of the world. modern pharmacological studies have demonstrated that p. oleracea have antioxidant effects. the protective effect of aqueous and ethanolic extract of p. oleracea against cisplatin-induced renal toxicity was studied in rats. materials and methods single intraperitoneal i...

objective(s): to understand the role of mitochondrial respiration in cisplatin sensitivity, we have employed wild-type and mitochondrial dna depleted rho0 yeast cells. materials and methods: wild type and rho0 yeast cultured in fermentable and non-fermentable sugar containing media, were studied for their sensitivity against cisplatin by monitoring growth curves, oxygen consumption, ph changes ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and toxicity of different concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) regimens in the treatment of advanced cervical cancer (CC) by adopting a network meta-analysis. METHODS We searched PubMed and Cochrane Library from the inception of these databases to September 2016, and all cohort studies (CSs) related to different CCRT regimens in the t...

background: cisplatin-based chemotherapy is the standard treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (nsclc). many novel drugs, including gemcitabine, vinorelbine, paclitaxel and docetaxel have been used in combination with cisplatin in this setting. of these drugs, gemcitabine is reported to have a high response rate and acceptable toxicity. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effi...

Hearing loss caused by aging, noise, cisplatin toxicity, or other insults affects 360 million people worldwide, but there are no Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs to prevent or treat it. We screened 4,385 small molecules in a cochlear cell line and identified 10 compounds that protected against cisplatin toxicity in mouse cochlear explants. Among them, kenpaullone, an inhibitor of mul...
