Lipid composition of two murine melanoma cell variants (B16, without malignant properties and B16-F10, with high metastatic activity), has been examined at different stages of growth. The aim of the work was to identify cell surface modifications due to the time length of in vitro culture, that

Expression of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) SPRY4-IT1 is low in normal human melanocytes but high in melanoma cells. siRNA knockdown of SPRY4-IT1 blocks melanoma cell invasion and proliferation, and increases apoptosis. To investigate its function further, we affinity purified SPRY4-IT1 from

The optimum approach to conquering cancer is prevention. Although the human diet contains components which promote cancer, it also contains components with the potential to prevent it. Recent research shows that milk fat contains a number of potential anticarcinogenic components including conjugated

Seventeen limonoids (tetranortriterpenoids 1-17) were isolated from the n-hexane extract of Azadirachta indica (neem) seeds. The previously unidentified compound 16 was established by spectroscopy to be 17-defurano-17-oxosalannin. The effects of six compounds, 6 and 11-15, on melanogenesis in B16

A study of lipid components of melanosomes isolated from eye pigment tissues and pigmented melanoma type Bomirski line Ma of Syrian hamster by thin-layer chromatography is described. Tumor melanosomes contained 8-10% of total lipids, approximately one half of which were phospholipids. Eye

We explored the changes in viability and lipid profile occurring in cancer cells, murine melanoma cells (B16F10 cells) and human cervical carcinoma cells (HeLa cells), when exposed to 24 h-treatments with an n-3 PUFA-rich oil obtained by supercritical extraction with CO2 from Mugil cephalus
