background: various mtt assay methods are proposed to obtain the cell sur- vival parameters. objective: determining the survival curve characteristics of two cancerous cells of interest based on a common and a novel mtt assay method after exposing them to ionizing radiation. method: a common and a novel mtt assay method were used and compared for obtaining the f10b16 melanoma and 4t1 breast ade...

Abstract In recent times, research on the synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) has developed rapidly and attracted considerable attention. The use plant extracts is preferred mode for biological NPs due to presence biologically active constituents. Aloe vera a endowed with therapeutic benefits especially in skincare its unique curative properties. present study focused an environmental ...

objective: in order to improve the water solubility and bioavailability of curcumin in cancer therapy, we prepared and tested a novel waterborne cationic polyurethane (pu) as a nano-carrier for curcumin loading (cu-pu). we studied the effect of this prepared nano-drug on melanoma (f10b16) and fibroblasts cells (l929). methods: morphology, size and cell internalization ability of the prepared n...

OBJECTIVE determining the survival curve characteristics of two cancerous cells of interest based on a common and a novel MTT assay method after exposing them to ionizing radiation. METHODS a common and a novel MTT assay method were used and compared for obtaining the F10B16 melanoma and 4T1 breast ade...

Background: Malignant melanoma is the leading cause of death among skin cancers in western countries. However, the incidence, histologic subtypes, and tumor behaviors are quite different in Asians and western populations. Objective: This study was designed to survey the clinicopathological aspects of malignant melanoma among Khouzestan people. Patients and Methods: In a retrospective stud...

although gastrointestinal involvement by metastatic malignant melanoma is common but primary gastrointestinal (gi) melanoma has been reported in rare cases. in this study we report two cases of primary gastrointestinal malignant melanoma that one of them is a known case of neurofibromatosis type 1(nf1). both cases showed no evidence of any lesions in skin and eye. malignant melanoma of gi tract...

in order to distinguish between benign and malignant types of pigmented skin lesions, computerized procedures have been developed for images taken by different equipment that the most available one of them is conventional digital cameras. in this research, a new procedure to detect malignant melanoma from benign pigmented lesions using macroscopic images is presented. the images are taken by co...

malignant melanoma is a potentially aggressive tumor of melanocytic origin. primary oral malignant melanoma is a rare neoplasm, accounting for 0.5% of all oral malignancies. the present case occurred in a 60‑year‑old female patient, as a pedunculated growth involving the palate and alveolar ridge and histologically showing a desmoplastic differentiation. the article discusses the distinct clini...

Background: Malignant melanoma is the most aggressive form of skin cancer. In contrast to other tumors, the role of estrogen in the initiation and progression of melanoma remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate estrogen receptor beta protein expression in human melanoma tissues and in the benign melanocytic lesions. Method: Twenty-one patients, 11 with cutaneous melanoma and 10 w...
