Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) is a novel and promising porphyrin-related photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy (PDT). The aim of this study was to investigate HMME-induced apoptosis in CHMm cells, a canine breast cancer cell line. CHMm cells were treated with HMME and a He-Ne laser at a
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) which employs ultrasound-triggered sonosensitizers to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been proved to be effective for treatment of cancers. However, it is still desirable for sonosensitizers to be delivered to tumors as effectively as possible. In this study, we
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), combining the laser and photosensitizers to kill tumor cells, has the potential to address many current medical requirements. In this study, magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were first employed as cores and modified with oleic acid (OA) and 3-triethoxysilyl-1-propanamine.
Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) is a promising porphyrin-related photosensitize for photodynamic therapy (PDT). There still remains unknown changes regarding the mitochondrial in canine breast cancer cells treated with HMME-PDT. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of HMME-PDT
Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) combined with He-Ne laser irradiation is a novel and promising photodynamic therapy (PDT)-induced apoptosis that can be applied in vitro on canine breast cancer cells. However, the exact pathway responsible for HMME-PDT in canine breast cancer cells remains
Development of dual-mode or multi-mode imaging contrast agents is important for accurate and self-confirmatory diagnosis of cancer. We report a new multifunctional, dendrimer-based gold nanoparticle (AuNP) as a dual-modality contrast agent for magnetic resonance (MR)/computed tomography (CT) imaging
OBJECTIVE
Thanks to its biologically active constituents, Ruta graveolens L. (Rutaceae) is a widely used medicinal plant. In our study, six furanoacridone alkaloids isolated from Ruta graveolens were investigated for their antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic effects on human breast cancer cell lines
A photosensitizer with high phototoxicity, low dark toxicity, and good water solubility is crucial for effective photodynamic therapy (PDT). In this study, a novel class of porphyrin-based water-soluble derivative and its isomers, named photohexer-1 (P-1) and photohexer-2 (P-2), were synthesized and
Platinum drug delivery against the detoxification of cytoplasmic thiols is urgently required for achieving efficacy in breast cancer treatment that is over expressed by glutathione (GSH, thiol-oligopeptide). GSH-resistant polymer-cisplatin core-shell nanoparticles were custom designed based on
BACKGROUND
Development of polymeric prodrugs of small molecular anticancer drugs has become one of the most promising strategies to overcome the intrinsic shortcomings of small molecular anticancer drugs and improve their anticancer performance.
METHODS
In the current work, we fabricated a novel
In the biosynthetic study of griseofulvin by Penicillium urticae and microbial transformation of (-)- and (+)-dehydrogriseofulvin and their derivatives by Streptomyces cinereocrocatus excellent informations were obtained from 2H-NMR spectroscopy. In the reduction of (-)-dehydrogriseofulvin into
The co-transfection assay is a novel functional assay using cells transiently transfected with plasmids encoding intracellular receptors and corresponding reporter genes. Using this assay, natural product extracts were tested to identify compounds that modulate intracellular receptor activity,
Alternaria molds simultaneously produce a large variety of mycotoxins, of which several were previously reported to induce enzymes of phase I metabolism through aryl hydrocarbon receptor activation. Thus, we investigated the potential of naturally occurring Alternaria toxin mixtures to
Background: Multifunctional nanoplatforms with diagnostic-imaging and targeted therapeutic functionality (theranostics) are of great interest in the field of precision nanomedicine. The emerging sonodynamic therapy (SDT) combined with sonosensitizers under the guidance of photoacoustic (PA)
