Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), the most common form of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, is a progressive, irreversible, and typically lethal disease characterized by an abnormal fibrotic response involving vast ...
Greensporone C, a Freshwater Fungal Secondary Metabolite Induces Mitochondrial-Mediated Apoptotic Cell Death in Leukemic Cell Lines
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2018 , Article)
Therapeutic agents used in the treatment of cancer are known to develop resistance against cancer cells. Hence, there is a continuing need to investigate novel agents for the treatment and management of cancer. Antitumor ...
Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (PTP) 1B Inhibition Improves Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-Induced Apoptosis and Impaired Angiogenic Response in Endothelial Cells
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Insulin is not only important for glucose homeostasis, but also plays a critical role in the activation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) to synthesize nitric oxide (NO) and keeping the endothelium functional. ...
The effect of surface-modified gold nanorods on the early stage of embryonic development and angiogenesis: Insight into the molecular pathways
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Gold nanorods have been implicated in several biomedical applications. Herein, the effect of two surface-modified gold nanorods on the early stages of embryogenesis and angiogenesis was investigated using avian embryos at ...
Novel 1,5-diphenyl-6-substituted 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones induced apoptosis in RKO colon cancer cells
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2015 , Article)
Novel 1,5-diphenyl-6-substituted-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones were synthesized and characterized. All compounds were screened for their anti-proliferative activities in five different cancer cell lines. The results ...
In vivo and in vitro studies evaluating the chemopreventive effect of metformin on the aryl hydrocarbon receptor-mediated breast carcinogenesis
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Metformin (MET) is a clinically used anti-hyperglycemic agent that shows activities against chemically-induced animal models of cancer. A study from our laboratory showed that MET protectes against 7, 12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene ...
Anticancer activity of Neosetophomone B, A Fungal Secondary Metabolite, against Hematological Malignancies
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Cancer is one of the most life threatening diseases, causing nearly 13% death in the worldwide. Leukemia, cancer of the hematopoetic cells is the main cause of cancer death in adults and children. Therapeutic agents used ...
Chemokine-cytokine networks in the head and neck tumor microenvironment
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article Review)
Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) are aggressive diseases with a dismal patient prognosis. Despite significant advances in treatment modalities, the five-year survival rate in patients with HNSCC has improved ...
Sanguinarine mediated apoptosis in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer via generation of reactive oxygen species and suppression of JAK/STAT pathway
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Effective treatment of lung cancer remains a significant clinical challenge due to its multidrug resistance and side effects of the current treatment options. The high mortality associated with this malignancy indicates ...
Molecular Evidence of Anticancer Activity of Camel Milk Combined with Camel Urine
(
Austin Publishing Group
, 2021 , Article)
Camel Milk (CM) and Camel Urine (CU) is a traditional practice in the
Middle East and other countries as an alternative treatment against cancer. We
hypothesized that a combination of CM and CU (CM+CU), used at ...
