Preparation and in vitro evaluation of doxorubicin-loaded Fe 3O 4 magnetic nanoparticles modified with biocompatible copolymers
(2012)
Background: Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles are attractive materials that have been widely used in medicine for drug delivery, diagnostic imaging, and therapeutic applications. In our study, superparamagnetic ...
Up regulation of liver-enriched transcription factors HNF4a and HNF6 and liver-specific microRNA (miR-122) by inhibition of let-7b in mesenchymal stem cells.
(2015)
MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that regulate key processes of the stem cells. Although, microRNAs have emerged as powerful regulators of differentiation, few studies have been focused on the post-transcriptional ...
Chrysin-loaded PLGA-PEG nanoparticles designed for enhanced effect on the breast cancer cell line.
(2016)
The development of nanotherapy has presented a new method of drug delivery targeted directly to the neoplasmic tissues, to maximize the action with fewer dose requirements. In the past two decades, poly(lactic-co-glycolic ...
Preparation and Evaluation of Chrysin Encapsulated in PLGA- PEG Nanoparticles in the T47-D Breast Cancer Cell Line.
(2015)
Polymeric nanoparticles are attractive materials that have been widely used in medicine for drug delivery, with therapeutic applications. In our study, polymeric nanoparticles and the anticancer drug, chrysin, were ...
Differential Maturation of miR-17 ~ 92 Cluster Members in Human Cancer Cell Lines.
(2017)
While some microRNAs are transcribed from a specific promoter, at least one third of human miRNA genes are clustered, wherein multiple miRNA genes are generated from a single primary transcript such as miR-17 ~ 92 cluster. ...
Association of KALRN, ADIPOQ, and FTO gene polymorphism in type 2 diabetic patients with coronary artery disease: possible predisposing markers.
(2016)
Recently, several genes have been introduced as potential genetic markers for diabetes mellitus and coronary artery diseases (CAD).In this case-control study, the associations of rs2241766 T/G of ADIPOQ, rs9289231 T/G of ...
Nucleostemin knocking-down causes cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia MOLT-4 cells via p53 and p21Waf1/Cip1 up-regulation
(2014)
Objectives: Nucleostemin (NS), a recently discovered nucleolar protein, is essential for maintaining selfrenewal and proliferation of embryonic and adult stem cells as well as cancerous cells. The aim of this study was to ...
Comparison between effects of free curcumin and curcumin loaded NIPAAm-MAA nanoparticles on telomerase and PinX1 gene expression in lung cancer cells.
(2014)
Herbal compounds such as curcumin which decrease telomerase and gene expression have been considered as beneficial tools for lung cancer treatment. In this article, we compared the effects of pure curcumin and curcumin-loaded ...
Comparison of inhibitory effect of 17-DMAG nanoparticles and free 17-DMAG in HSP90 gene expression in lung cancer.
(2014)
Up-regulation of hsp90 gene expression occurs in numerous cancers such as lung cancer. D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid-poly ethylene glycol-17-dimethylaminoethylamino-17-demethoxy geldanamycin (PLGA-PEG-17DMAG) complexes and ...
Dendrosomal curcumin nanoformulation modulate apoptosis-related genes and protein expression in hepatocarcinoma cell lines.
(2016)
The side-effects observed in conventional therapies have made them unpromising in curing Hepatocellular carcinoma; therefore, developing novel treatments can be an overwhelming significance. One of such novel agents is ...
