An updated overview of cyanidins for chemoprevention and cancer therapy
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article Review)Anthocyanins are colored polyphenolic compounds that belong to the flavonoids family and are largely present in many vegetables and fruits. They have been used in traditional medicine in many cultures for a long time. The ... -
Beta-caryophyllene exhibits anti-proliferative effects through apoptosis induction and cell cycle modulation in multiple myeloma cells
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2021 , Article)Cannabinoid receptors, which are widely distributed in the body, have been considered as possible pharmacological targets for the management of several tumors. Cannabinoid type 2 receptors (CB2Rs) belong to the G protein-coupled ... -
Correction to: Beta-Caryophyllene Exhibits Anti-Proliferative Effects through Apoptosis Induction and Cell Cycle Modulation in Multiple Myeloma Cells (Cancers, (2021), 13, 22, (5741), 10.3390/cancers13225741)
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2023 , Other)In the original publication [1], errors were identified in the published Figures 4 and 7. The original raw data of western blots could not be retrieved and therefore the experiments were redone to generate the corrected ... -
Deregulation of cell growth and apoptosis in UV-induced melanomagenesis
( Frontiers in Bioscience , 2020 , Article Review)We have previously characterized the role of p16/Rb in coordinating the early events in UVB-irradiated skin. As an extension to this work, normal melanocytes and mutant p16-inducible melanoma cell models were employed to ... -
The effect of surface-modified gold nanorods on the early stage of embryonic development and angiogenesis: Insight into the molecular pathways
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)Gold nanorods have been implicated in several biomedical applications. Herein, the effect of two surface-modified gold nanorods on the early stages of embryogenesis and angiogenesis was investigated using avian embryos at ... -
In vitro evaluation of Neosetophomone B inducing apoptosis in cutaneous T cell lymphoma by targeting the FOXM1 signaling pathway
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Background: Cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a T cell-derived non-Hodgkin lymphoma primarily affecting the skin, with treatment posing a significant challenge and low survival rates. Objective: In this study, we ... -
Molecular Evidence of Anticancer Activity of Camel Milk Combined with Camel Urine
( Austin Publishing Group , 2021 , Article)Camel Milk (CM) and Camel Urine (CU) is a traditional practice in the Middle East and other countries as an alternative treatment against cancer. We hypothesized that a combination of CM and CU (CM+CU), used at ... -
Novel nitrogen-based chalcone analogs provoke substantial apoptosis in HER2-positive human breast cancer cells via JNK and ERK1/ERK2 signaling pathways
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)Natural chalcones possess antitumor properties and play a role as inducers of apoptosis, antioxidants and cytotoxic compounds. We recently reported that novel nitrogen chalcone-based compounds, which were generated in our ... -
Paradoxical effects of statins on endothelial and cancer cells: the impact of concentrations
( Springer Nature , 2023 , Article)In addition to their lipid-lowering functions, statins elicit additional pleiotropic effects on apoptosis, angiogenesis, inflammation, senescence, and oxidative stress. Many of these effects have been reported in cancerous ... -
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibition improves endoplasmic reticulum stress-impaired endothelial cell angiogenic response: A critical role for cell survival
( Spandidos publications , 2021 , Article)Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress contributes to endothelial dysfunction, which is the initial step in atherogenesis. Blockade of protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP)1B, a negative regulator of insulin receptors that is ... -
Role of RhoA and Rho-associated kinase in phenotypic switching of vascular smooth muscle cells: Implications for vascular function
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article Review)Cardiovascular disease (CVD) continues to be the primary cause of global mortality. Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are integral components of vascular structure and function, evident by their vital roles in modulating ... -
Substantial cell apoptosis provoked by naked PAMAM dendrimers in HER2-positive human breast cancer via JNK and ERK1/ERK2 signalling pathways
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)HER2-positive breast cancer is one of its most challenging subtypes, forming around 15–25% of the total cases. It is characterized by aggressive behavior and treatment resistance. On the other hand, poly (amidoamine) (PAMAM) ...
