Daucus carota Pentane-Based Fractions Suppress Proliferation and Induce Apoptosis in Human Colon Adenocarcinoma HT-29 Cells by Inhibiting the MAPK and PI3K Pathways by Shehaby, Wassim N.

“…This study aims to determine the anticancer activity of the pentane fraction (F1) and the 1:1 pentane:diethyl ether fraction (F2) of the Daucus Carota oil extract (DCOE) against human colon adenocarcinoma cell lines (HT-29 and Caco-2). Treatment of cells with various concentrations of F1 or F2 fractions produced a dose-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation. …”

Role of non-coding RNA networks in leukemia progression, metastasis and drug resistance by Ajaz A. Bhat (12984701)

“…</p> <p>Recently, non-coding RNAs due to their involvement in vital oncogenic processes such as differentiation, proliferation, migration, angiogenesis and apoptosis have attracted much attention as potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in leukemia. Emerging lines of evidence have shown that the mutational spectrum and dysregulated expression of non-coding RNA genes are closely associated with the development and progression of various cancers, including leukemia. …”

Bortezomib exerts its anti-cancer activity through the regulation of Skp2/p53 axis in non-melanoma skin cancer cells and C. elegans by Kirti S. Prabhu (4246144)

“…In this study, we investigated the role of Bortezomib (BTZ), a proteasome inhibitor, in NMSC. Using two NMSC cell lines (A431 and A388), we examined the effects of BTZ treatment. …”

Postprandial lipaemia 10 and 34 hours after playing football: Does playing frequency affect the response? by Darren J. Paul (6905450)

“…Performing three consecutive days of football exercise may offer no greater protective effect for postprandial TG before a period of reduced activity, compared to a single session.…”

The molecular mechanisms of apoptosis accompanied with the epigenetic regulation of the NY-ESO-1 antigen in non-small lung cancer cells treated with decitabine (5-aza-CdR) by Varghese P. Inchakalody (14557382)

“…Bisulfite-sequencing demonstrated 45.6% demethylation efficiency at the NY-ESO-1 gene promoter region and RT-qPCR analysis confirmed the significant induction of NY-ESO-1 at mRNA level (128-fold increase, *p < 0.050). We then investigated the mechanism by which 5-Aza-CdR inhibits cell proliferation in the NCI–H1975 cell line. …”

A new sesquiterpene from Lebanese wild carrot inhibits proliferation of human acute myeloid leukemia cells by Boulos, J.

“…The anticancer activity of 1β-2-himachalen-6-ol was evaluated against two AML cell line, HL60 and ML2. Results revealed that the IC50 of the two latter cells were 21 and 15 µg/mL, corresponding to 94.5 and 67.5µM, respectively. …”
