glioma/zea mays

Gliomas are one of the most common types of primary brain tumors, characterized by rapid proliferation and infiltration into normal brain tissue. Corncob is the most plentiful byproducts of Zea mays L., of which anti-cancer effect has not been reported. Therefore, we aimed to examine the

2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is one of the most potent environmental immunomodulating agents identified so far. Historically, mice have been used to model mammalian immunobiology and most of the data gathered on the immunotoxicity of TCDD has been obtained from studies with mice.

4-Hexylresorcinol, which is used as an anthelmintic and antiseptic, was nominated by the National Cancer Institute for study. Toxicology and carcinogenesis studies were conducted by administering 4-hexylresorcinol (greater than 99% pure) in corn oil by gavage to groups of F344/N rats and B6C3F1 mice
