Comparison of inhibitory effects of 17-AAG nanoparticles and free 17-AAG on HSP90 gene expression in breast cancer.
(2014)
HSP90 may be overexpressed in cancer cells which are greatly dependent on Hsp90 function. Geldanamycin derivative 17 allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG) inhibits the function and expression of HSP90. 17-AAG has ...
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 ...
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 ...
Harnessing Bioinformatics for Designing a Novel Multiepitope Peptide Vaccine Against Breast Cancer.
Breast cancer (BC) remains as one of the important causes of cancer deaths among women globally. Therefore, finding an effective treatment for BC is really needed. Cancer immunotherapy, as an emerging field, has a notable ...
Gold nanoprobe-based method for sensing activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM) gene expression, as a breast cancer biomarker.
(2017)
In breast cancer, a proper biomarker for the assessment of metastasis and poor prognosis is the RNA of activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM) gene, which is expressed at high levels in breast tumor. We applied ...
Curcumin and silibinin inhibit telomerase expression in T47D human breast cancer cells.
(2013)
Telomerase has been considered as an attractive molecular target for breast cancer therapy. The main objective of this work is to assess the inhibitory effects of silibinin and curcumin, two herbal substances, on telomerase ...
Detection of superior markers for polymerase chain reaction diagnosis of breast cancer micrometastasis in sentinel lymph nodes
(2016)
Breast cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer among women around the world, and mortality is primarily caused by micro-metastatic disease. The complex mechanisms of breast cancer invasion and metastasis are intrinsically ...
Prostate-specific antigen gene expression and telomerase activity in breast cancer patients: possible relationship to steroid hormone receptors.
(2011)
Breast cancer, the most prevalent cancer among women, is a steroid hormone receptor-dependent cancer. Recently, it has been shown that telomerase and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) gene expressions are under control of ...
Inhibitory effects of ?-cyclodextrin-helenalin complexes on H-TERT gene expression in the T47D breast cancer cell line - results of real time quantitative PCR.
(2013)
Nowadays, the encapsulation of cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents is attracting interest as a method for drug delivery. We hypothesized that the efficiency of helenalin might be maximized by encapsulation in ?-cyclodextrin ...
PAMAM dendrimers augment inhibitory effects of curcumin on cancer cell proliferation: possible inhibition of telomerase.
(2013)
Despite numerous useful anticancer properties of curcumin, its utility is limited due to its hydrophobic structure. In this study, we investigated the comparative antiproliferative effect of PAMAM encapsulating curcumin ...
