The infusion of Baccharis spicata (Lam. ) Baill (Asteraceae) has antiviral activity against hepatitis B virus without cytotoxic effects against several cell lines

Medicinal plants are used to cure diseases, and their replacement is frequent and affects public health. The genus Baccharis has representatives within the medicinal flora of Argentina, although the replacement of the species of this genus known under the vulgar name of "carqueja" by Bacc...

Investigation the effects of vitreous humor on proliferation and dedifferentiation of differentiated NTERA2 cells

Braz. j. biol; 84 (), 2024
Abstract Mammals have a limited capacity to regenerate their tissues and organs. One of the mechanisms associated with natural regeneration is dedifferentiation. Several small molecules such as vitamin C and growth factors could improve reprogramming efficiency. In this study, the NTERA2-D1 (NT2) cells w...

nteraction between FAK/αB-crystalline is important for viability of the glioblastoma cells

Abstract Glioblastoma multiforme is a tumor of the central nervous system. Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) and αB-crystalline are two proteins involved in glioblastoma development. In this study, we investigated whether the FAK/αB-crystalline interaction is important for glioblastoma cells, we aimed to inv...

Avaliação funcional do silenciamento por siRNA de P-gp em linhagens de glioblastoma e investigação do potencial papel de P-gp como biomarcador nesse tumor
Functional evaluation of siRNA silencing of P-gp in glioblastoma cell lines and investigation of the potential role of P-gp as a biomarker in this tumor

O fenômeno conhecido como multidrug resistance (MDR) observado no câncer é um grande desafio na busca por terapias mais eficientes. Esse fenótipo é o resultado da combinação de vários fatores, como a alta expressão de bombas de efluxo da superfamília de proteínas transportadoras ABC, que imped...

Cytotoxicity assay of Pleurotus ostreatusextracts in different cell lines to immunonutritional applications

Rev. inf. cient; 103 (), 2024
Introducción: Los bioderivados propuestos como candidatos a ingredientes alimentarios suelen requerir ciertas evaluaciones para las aplicaciones inmunonutricionales Los hongos comestibles-medicinales son un surtidor de compuestos con estas potencialidades. Entre ellos, las setas Pleurotus ostreatus cont...

Alpha-synuclein dynamics bridge Type-I Interferon response and SARS-CoV-2 replication in peripheral cells

Biol. Res; 57 (), 2024
BACKGROUND: Increasing evidence suggests a double-faceted role of alpha-synuclein (α-syn) following infection by a variety of viruses, including SARS-CoV-2. Although α-syn accumulation is known to contribute to cell toxicity and the development and/or exacerbation of neuropathological manifestations, i...

Focal adhesion kinase inhibition decreases cell viability and induces apoptosis of JAK2 V617F positive cells

Abstract Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) protein participates in proliferation, migration, cell survival, and apoptosis process. It has been described as overexpressed in several neoplasms being a promising target for therapy. BCR-ABL negative chronic Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN) are clonal disorders c...

Ubiquitin protein E3 ligase ASB9 suppresses proliferation and promotes apoptosis in human spermatogonial stem cell line by inducing HIF1AN degradation

Biol. Res; 56 (), 2023
BACKGROUND: Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are critical for sustaining spermatogenesis. Even though several regulators of SSC have been identified in rodents, the regulatory mechanism of SSC in humans has yet to be discovered. METHODS: To explore the regulatory mechanisms of human SSCs, we analyzed pub...

Implementando CRISPR/Cas9 no laboratório: um guia de como editar células para criar modelos celulares

Clin. biomed. res; 43 (4), 2023
Modelos celulares são muito utilizados na pesquisa experimental e, idealmente, constituem o primeiro nível de modelo de estudo. A utilização de modelos celulares permite, por exemplo, a primeira avaliação de tolerabilidade e de segurança de fármacos e tratamentos experimentais, além de permitir ...

The possibility of early diagnosis of colorectal cancer through expression of Lncrna UCA1, Lncrna LINC00970, and Wnt genes; an in-vitro study

Acta sci., Health sci; 44 (), 2022
Colorectal cancer is the 4thcause of cancer death; with considering the growth process of this cancer and the necessity of early diagnosis, the purpose of the research is to state the LncRNA 00970, LncRNA UCAI,and the Wntgene before and after the treatment by 5-Azacytidine epigenetic medi...
