Biomonitoring of Toxic Effects of Pesticides in Occupationally Exposed Individuals
( Elsevier , 2016 , Article)Background Workers in pesticide manufacturing industries are constantly exposed to pesticides. Genetic biomonitoring provides an early identification of potential cancer and genetic diseases in exposed populations. The ... -
Carnosol induces ROS-mediated beclin1-independent autophagy and apoptosis in triple negative breast cancer
( Public Library of Science , 2014 , Article)Background: In this study we investigated the in vitro and in vivo anticancer effect of carnosol, a naturally occurring polyphenol, in triple negative breast cancer.Results: We found that carnosol significantly inhibited ... -
DNA Damage/Repair Management in Cancers
( MDPI , 2020 , Article Review)DNA damage is well recognized as a critical factor in cancer development and progression. DNA lesions create an abnormal nucleotide or nucleotide fragment, causing a break in one or both chains of the DNA strand. When DNA ... -
DNA Damage/Repair Management in Cancers
( Routledge , 2021 , Book chapter)DNA damage can alter nucleotide sequences and lead to expression of dysfunctional proteins that impact normal cellular physiology. Sources of DNA damage can be endogenous or exogenous and include reactive oxygen species ... -
Mitotic Arrest and Apoptosis in Breast Cancer Cells Induced by Origanum majorana Extract: Upregulation of TNF-α and Downregulation of Survivin and Mutant p53
( Public Library of Science , 2013 , Article)Background: In the present study, we investigated the effect of Origanum majorana ethanolic extract on the survival of the highly proliferative and invasive triple-negative p53 mutant breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231. ... -
Salinomycin induces apoptosis and senescence in breast cancer: Upregulation of p21, downregulation of survivin and histone H3 and H4 hyperacetylation
( Elsevier , 2013 , Article)Background In the present study, we investigated the effect of Salinomycin on the survival of three human breast cancer cell lines MCF-7, T47D and MDA-MB-231 grown in adherent culture conditions. Methods Cell viability ... -
Targeting DNA Repair Pathways in Hematological Malignancies.
( MDPI , 2020 , Article Review)DNA repair plays an essential role in protecting cells that are repeatedly exposed to endogenous or exogenous insults that can induce varying degrees of DNA damage. Any defect in DNA repair mechanisms results in multiple ... -
Unmasking the interplay between mTOR and Nox4: novel insights into the mechanism connecting diabetes and cancer
( NLM (Medline) , 2019 , Article)Cancer was recently annexed to diabetic complications. Furthermore, recent studies suggest that cancer can increase the risk of diabetes. Consequently, diabetes and cancer share many risk factors, but the cellular and ...
