Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCpG Oligodeoxynucleotides Debate the Damaging Action of Cisplatin on Immune Cell DNA: A PCR Array Application on Repair Genes ExpressionNaglaa Fathy Alhusseini, Amal Abo El-Fadl, Shabaan Hemada et al.Synthetic Oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) expressing CpG motifs (CpG-ODN) mimic the immunostimulatory activity of bacterial DNA and are commonly used to activate Toll Like Receptor 9 (TLR9) for therapeutic applications. CpG-ODN can counteract the activity of DNA-damaging chemotherapy and radiation therapy on immune cell and enhance immunity in preclinical mouse models. We hypothesized that these actions of CpG-ODN on immune cells are … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2016 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Combined Fenofibrate and Nicotinamide on Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Cytokines Involved in Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in RatsOmaima M. Abd Allah, Abeer A.I. Sharaf El-Din, Fouad El DebakeyCisplatin (Cis) is an anticancer drug, which is accompanied with major side effects including nephrotoxicity. The current study was performed to assess the possible prophylactic effects of fenofibrate (FEN), Nicotinamide (NAM) and their combination on oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokines associated with cisplatin-induced renal damage. Rats were randomly divided into seven groups (8 each) as follows; control group; FEN group … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 9 Jan 2015 · 7,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Camel's Milk on Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Swiss Albino MiceMohamed E.M. AfifiProblem statement: Nephrotoxicity is a major complication and a dose limiting factor for cisplatin therapy. Cisplatin mediated nephrotoxicity is remarkably documented by reactive oxygen species. Camel's milk has good nutritive value, antigenotoxic and anticytotoxic effects. The aim of the present study was to assess the protective effect of camel's milk against Cisplatin-induced renal oxidative stress in mice. Approach: Forty mal … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,989 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRetinoids Chemosensitize Ovarian Cancer Cell Lines to Cisplatin Independent of Nuclear Receptors and p53Suresh Guruswamy, Doris M. BenbrookTreatment of ovarian cancer with cisplatin-based chemotherapy is highly toxic and is often followed by cancer recurrence. Repeated treatments with cisplatin frequently result in the development of resistance to this drug. Drugs with low toxicity that could enhance the tumor cell killing effects of cisplatin could potentially reduce the toxicity and enhance the efficacy of cisplatin. The mechanism of cell … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,958 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSelective Susceptibility of Human Bladder Transitional Cell Carcinoma T24 Cells towards NBD PeptideSankari Durairajan, Charles Emmanuel Jebaraj Walter, Kalaiselvi Periyandavan et al.Bladder cancer is a recurrent disease that often develops chemoresistance and is on the rise in developing countries. After diagnosis surgery followed by immunotherapy and/or chemo- radiation therapy are the available treatments. These treatments do not provide protection against disease progression or recurrence thus highlighting the need to identify and develop drugs that are capable of inhibiting bladder cancer. T24 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 20 Apr 2020 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordstNOX (ENOX2) Target for Chemosensitization-Low-Dose Responses in the Hormetic Concentration RangeD. James Morre, Sara Dick, Elena Bosneaga et al.An emerging concept of cancer chemotherapy is that of chemosensitization. Most often applied to the treatment of drug-resistance cancers, chemosensitization has utility when such cancers are rendered drug sensitive through treatment with the sensitizing agent. A particularly striking example of chemosensitization is that encountered with the synthetic isoflavene phenoxodiol where patients with taxane- and/or platinum-resistant ovarian carcinoma once again become … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,568 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytotoxicity and Apoptosis Prevailed by Tricyclohexyltin(IV) Dithiocarbamate Compounds Against Human Lung Carcinoma Cell Line (A549)Normah Awang, Nurul Amalina Abd Aziz, Nur Fatini Nordin, Nurul Farahana KamaludinIn Malaysia, lung cancer is a highly common kind of cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. This study examined the cytotoxicity of two new tricyclohexyltin(IV) dithiocarbamate compounds compounds, which are tricyclohexyltin(IV) N-methyl-N-benzyldithiocarbamate (C1) and tricyclohexyltin(IV) N-ethyl-N-benzyldithiocarbamate (C2), on lung carcinoma cell lines (A549) of humans. The cytotoxicity was assessed using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Cell death mode … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 13 Jun 2024 · 4,622 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferential Expression of Cellular and Exosomal MicroRNA Isolated from Oral Cancer Cells and their Resistance to ChemotherapyBrady Petersen, Carl Yu, Samuel Hutchings et al.MicroRNAs are abundant small non-coding RNA with a variety of known functions, including transcriptional activation and inhibition. Recent evidence has suggested that microRNA expression may influence the responsiveness of some cancers to chemotherapy, including liver and lung cancers. Some evidence has now suggested that specific microRNAs, such as miR-21, miR-155, and miR-375, may influence oral cancer responsiveness to chemotherapy – … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 29 Jul 2022 · 5,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Proliferative Activity of Zerumbone Against Tumour Cell LinesAdel Sharaf Al-ZubairiZerumbone (ZER) is a cytotoxic phytochemical component extracted from the tropical herbal plant, Zingiber Zerumbet smith. 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 abstractSensitivities of Uterine Adenocarcinoma, Mixed Mullerian Tumor (MMT) and Sarcoma Cell Lines to Chemotherapeutic Agents and a Flex-Het DrugJohnny Hyde, Doris M. BenbrookThe administration and combination of a variety of chemotherapeutic agents for treatment of advanced or recurrent uterine cancer of different histologies is under current debate. Mixed Mullerian Tumors (MMTs), which contain both adenocarcinoma and sarcoma components, are the most rate histologic type and it is therefore difficult to conduct clinical trials to determine if they should be treated like endometrial … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,460 accessesView PDFCite
