It has been identified as an active anticancer compound. This study was aimed to evaluate in vitro the anti-proliferative activity of this bioactive compound, zerumbone, on seven cancer cell lines namely: CEMss (T4-lymphoplastoid), Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO), 3T3 (mouse fibroblast), WEHI-3 (murine monomyelocytic leukemia), … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 25 Apr 2018 · 8,317 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSequence Analysis of VP2 Gene of the Parvoviruses Isolated from Fecal Samples of Domestic Cats in Tehran, IranNegin Jahanbin, Shahram Jamshidi, Omid MadadgarPanleukopenia is a viral enteritis of high mortality rate in Feline population. It is caused by a small single-stranded DNA virus, belonging to the Family Parvoviridae, called Feline Panleukopenia Virus (FPV). Parvoviruses are capable of adapting to new hosts and can simply mutate like RNA viruses, resulting in the emergence of different strains with antigenic changes. Unlike the original Canine … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2017 · 7,693 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Bioactivity of Fucoxanthin from Undaria pinnatifida in VitroYiting Li, Ye Liu, Yuepeng Wang et al.Fucoxanthin, a marine carotenoid, can be found in marine algae and some marine invertebrates, has remarkable biological properties for human health. It is known that fucoxanthin has anti-cancer activity on some human cancer cells such as human colon cancers, leukemia cells, prostate cancer cells, breast cancer cells. In this study, the fucoxanthin was extracted from Undaria pinnatifida, after purification by … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 7 Jun 2016 · 7,866 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntracellular L-Asparaginase from Bacillus sp. PG02: Purification, Biochemical Characterization and Evaluation of Optimum pH and TemperatureFatemeh Izadpanah Qeshmi, Mahsa Rahimzadeh, Sedigheh Javadpour, Manijeh PoodatBacterial L-asparaginases are amidohydrolases that act on L-asparagine and produce L-aspartate and ammonia. These enzymes have been used in treatment of lymphoblastic leukemia. In the present study, a novel strain, Bacillus sp. PG02 was explored for the production of intra-cellular L-asparaginase enzyme. The nitrogen source for L-asparaginase production was L-asparagine. New intracellular L-asparaginase was purified using ion exchange chromatography and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 26 Nov 2015 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
