BACH1 silencing by siRNA inhibits migration of HT-29 colon cancer cells through reduction of metastasis-related genes
(2016)
Background Metastasis to distant organs is a hallmark of many tumor cells. BACH1 (BTB and CNC homology 1) is a transcriptional factor which promotes the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells. BACH1 expression and ...
TP53 Gene Pro72Arg (rs1042522) Single Nucleotide Polymorphism as Not a Risk Factor for Colorectal Cancer in the Iranian Azari Population
(2017)
Background: The p53 protein participates critically in several cellular functions such as cell growth and DNA
repair. Polymorphisms in the TP53 locus have repeatedly been implicated in the pathogenesis of cancers all over ...
Double sword role of EZH2 in leukemia.
(2018)
Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), the core component of the polycomb group complex, plays a major role in normal hematopoiesis. The molecular function of EZH2 is to establish H3K27me3 mark on specific genes by which ...
Balaglitazone reverses P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance via upregulation of PTEN in a PPAR?-dependent manner in leukemia cells
(2017)
Multidrug resistance in tumor cells is still a big challenge in cancer treatment. Therefore, identification ofsafe and effective multidrug resistance-reversing compounds with minimal side effects is an important approach ...
Cloning and molecular characterization of the cDNAs encoding the variable regions of an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody
(2017)
BACKGROUND: CD20-based targeting of B-cells in hematologic malignancies and autoimmune disorders is associated with outstanding clinical outcomes. Isolation and characterization of VH and VL cDNAs encoding the variable ...
BACH1, the master regulator gene: A novel candidate target for cancer therapy.
(2016)
BACH1 (BTB and CNC homology 1, basic leucine zipper transcription factor 1) is a transcriptional factor and a member of cap 'n' collar (CNC) and basic region leucine zipper factor family. In contrast to other bZIP family ...
siRNA-mediated inhibition of survivin gene enhances the anti-cancer effect of etoposide in U-937 acute myeloid leukemia cells.
(2016)
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of the most frequent types of leukemia which mostly affects adult people. Resistance to therapeutic drugs is considered as a major clinical concern resulting in a weaker response to ...
Urtica dioica dichloromethane extract induce apoptosis from intrinsic pathway on human prostate cancer cells (PC3).
(2016)
Prostate cancer is considered as the major cause of death among men around the world. There are a number of medicinal plants triggering apoptosis response in cancer cells, thus have a therapeutic potential. Therefore, ...
Extracts of Scrophularia frigida Boiss display potent antitumor effects in human breast cancer cells by inducing apoptosis and inhibition of expression of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2.
(2016)
Some species of the Scrophularia genus have been extensively used as a natural remedy for treatment of various medical conditions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the growth inhibitory activity of Scrophularia ...
Micro RNA 34a and Let-7a Expression in Human Breast Cancers is Associated with Apoptotic Expression Genes.
(2016)
Breast cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death among women in the whole world. MiR- 34a and let-7a are well known tumor suppressors that participate in the regulation of apoptosis, invasion and other cellular ...
