Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSynthesis, Ant Proliferative Activity and Docking Study of New Quercetin Derivatives against MDA-MB231 Breast Cancer Cell LinesReham Adnan Al-Anssari, Rita S. Elias, Shaker A.N. AljadaanMDA-MB231 is a very aggressive and invasive triple negative breast cancer, which present with limited treatment options. Unlike other breast cancer types, it is characterized by absence of hormonal receptors of estrogen, progesterone as well as human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, rendering it unsuitable for hormonal therapy and a perfect candidate for chemotherapy. Quercetin is a common natural flavonoid … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 5 · 26 Jun 2019 · 8,790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsChemical Composition of Propolis from Different Regions in Java and their Cytotoxic ActivitySyamsudin, Sudjaswadi Wiryowidagdo, Partomuan Simanjuntak, Wan Lelly HeffenProblem statement: Propolis samples from tropical zones, such as Java (Indonesia) with its vast biodiversity, have become a subject of increasing scientific and economic attention. The association of the chemical composition of propolis from different geographic regions with cytotoxic activities lead to the identification of active principles, a fundamental tool to achieve standardization of this bee product. Approach: The purpose … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,269 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMarine-Derived Extracts as Economically Sustainable and Ethical Alternatives to Fetal Bovine Serum in HEK293 Cell CultureKian Kenneth Francisco Sanchez, Jennifer Seki-Wong et al.Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is a staple supplement in cell culture, providing key growth factors that promote cell health and proliferation. Since 1885, cell culture has been a cornerstone of both basic and applied research, leading to significant discoveries of cell communication and function. However, the use of FBS presents economic and ethical challenges. Millions of bovine fetuses are euthanized … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 7 Aug 2026 · 1,042 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytotoxicity Evaluation of Curcumin-FITC Conjugates in Granulosa Cells Isolated from Ovarian Follicles of Kampung Chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus)Sukarman Hadi Jaya Putra, Mansur S, UmarudinLinking curcumin to fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) results in a hybrid fluorescent marker (curcumin-FITC) that exhibits improved stability and sensitivity in detection. This study sought to evaluate the biological safety and cytotoxic effects of curcumin-FITC on granulosa cells obtained from ovarian follicles (2-5 mm, F1-F4 stage) of Kampung chickens. Following fluorescent labeling with different concentrations of curcumin-FITC (0-100 μg/mL), cell viability … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 14 May 2026 · 1,497 accessesView PDFCite
