cigarette smoking is one of the main risk factors for premature human death associated to a variety of respiratory and vascular diseases, and cancer due to containing hundreds of toxicants. rat mitochondria were obtained by differential ultracentrifugation and incubated with different concentrations (1, 10 and 100%) of standardized cigarette smoke extract (cse). our results showed that cigarett...

the pathogenesis of equine grass sickness (egs) has not fully understood. a better understanding of the exact pathogenesis of diseases can help to make an accurate diagnosis. previous studies reported some pathological damage of neuronal cells in egs patients. in this study, primarily cytotoxicity of serum from three clinically egs-diagnosed horses on pc12 tet-off (pto) cells was assessed. subs...

purpose : to investigate the effects of mtp-131 on trabeculum cells cultured under hydrostatic pressure methods : glaucomatous human trabecular meshwork (gtm3) cells were divided into three groups: the mtp-131 group, the hydrostatic group, and the normal group. the mtp-131 group was pretreated with 1 µm mtp-131, and the cells were then cultured under 80 mmhg pressure for 24 hours. the normal gr...

In this research, we investigated the cytotoxic mechanisms of one of the widely used pharmaceuticals that are regularly associated with the adverse effects on the liver, sometimes leading to acute liver failure, diclofenac. Diclofenac liver cytotoxicity was associated with reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and lipid peroxidation which were inhibited by antioxidants and ROS scavengers, fer...

mycophenolic acid (mpa) is the active metabolite of mycophenolate mofetil. this study designed to investigate the mechanism of cytotoxicity of mpa on the genetically engineered pc12 tet off (pto) neuronal cells with p53 gene. alamar blue (ab) reduction showed concentration-dependent cytotoxicity of mpa on pto cells with ic50 value of 32.32 ± 4.61 mm. the reactive oxygen species (ros) generation...
