A variety of anthracene- and anthraquinone-related derivatives, modified from three types of lead structures, including 9-acyloxy 1,5-dichloroanthracene (type I), 1,5-bisacyloxy-anthraquinones with O-linked substituents (type II) and 1,5-bisacyloxy-anthraquinones with S-linked substituents (type
OBJECTIVE
Malignant tumour arises due to abnormal cell proliferation, chronic inflammation, defect in apoptotic pathway and unwanted angiogenesis. The present study has investigated the modulating effect of apigenin on expression pattern of apoptotic (p53, Bcl-2, Bax, Caspase-3 and 9) cell
Investigation of expression pattern of molecular markers in oral epithelial tissues would help to assess the cell differentiation and proliferation as well as early diagnosis of precancerous and cancerous lesions of the oral cavity. Aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effect
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, such as 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA), are environmental pollutants that exert multiple toxic and carcinogenic effects. Studies showed that these effects are mediated by activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and modulated by allelic variants of
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin, celecoxib, and etoricoxib were studied as chemopreventive agents in lung cancer in mice induced by 9,10-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA). The animals were subjected to a single intratracheal instillation of DMBA by surgical intervention,
Interleukin (IL)-12 deficiency exacerbates tumorigenesis in ultraviolet (UV) radiation-induced skin. Here, we assessed the effects of IL-12 deficiency on 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced tumor promotion in 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA)-initiated mouse skin. Using this
The effects of prostaglandins (PG) E1, E2, F1 alpha and F2 alpha and some anti-inflammatory drugs such as acetylsalicyclic acid, flufenamic acid, indomethacin, and fluocinolone acetonide (FA) on the binding of [3H]7,12-demthylbenz[alpha]anthracene (DMBA) to DNA of murine epidermal cells have been
Exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) environmental contaminants has been associated with the development of mutations and cancer. 7,12-Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene ( DMBA), a genotoxic agent, reacts with DNA directly, inducing p53-dependent cytotoxicity resulting in cell death by apoptosis
Tumor-initiating properties of complete carcinogens such as 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) are well known but not the mechanism of DMBA-mediated tumor promotion. Our hypothesis is that interleukin (IL)-1alpha, an early proinflammatory cytokine that initiates a cascade of other cytokines and
In traditional Indian medicine, the plant Gmelina arborea Linn. (GA) is described to have the ability to relieve edema. The present study evaluates the anticancer property of GA stem bark against 7,12-dimethylbenz(a) anthracene (DMBA)-croton oil-induced skin tumorigenesis along with the evaluation
Grape seed proanthocyanidins (GSPs) possess anticarcinogenic activities. Here, we assessed the effects of dietary GSPs on 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced skin tumor promotion in 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-initiated mouse skin. Administration of dietary GSPs (0.2 and
Enicostemma littorale leaves are traditionally used for the treatment of several diseases, including inflammation and cancer. This study has taken effort to explore the antitumor initiating potential of E. littorale leaves (ElELet) by analyzing the expression pattern of apoptotic (p53, Bcl-2 and
We investigated the preventive potential of paeonol on 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) induced oral carcinogenesis. Oral tumors were developed in the buccal pouches of Syrian golden hamsters using topical application of 0.5% DMBA three times/week for 10 weeks. DMBA treated hamsters developed
The present study has investigated the modulating effect of carnosic acid on the expression pattern of cell proliferative (proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) cyclin D1 and a transcription factor c-fos), apoptotic (p53, Bcl-2, Bax caspase -3 and 9), inflammatory (Nuclear factor kappa B (NFκB)
Oral carcinogenesis, a multistep process with multifaceted etiology, arises due to accumulation of heterogeneous genetic changes in the genes involved in the basic cellular functions including cell division, differentiation, and cell death. These genetic changes in the affected cell progressively
