Distribution of Bcl-2 in Odontogenic Cyst and Tumours: Histochemical Study

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2015.579

ABSTRACT

Introduction: The Odontogenic Keratocyst is known for its aggressiveness, high recurrence rate and transformation of keratinized epithelia to non-keratinized squamous epithelium for which inflammation has been suggested to be responsible. bcl-2 an anti-apoptotic protein, prolongs the life span of epithelial cells and allows proliferation, differentiation and morphogenesis.

The Effect and Mechanisms of Proliferative Inhibition of Crocin on Human Leukaemia Jurkat Cells

Issue:

Vol 64, Issue 5: December (2015) – Special Issue on Health Sciences

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2016.053

Pages:

473–9

Synopsis:

Crocin promoted Jurkat cell apoptosis and inhibited cell growth in a dose-time-dependent manner. These results suggest that crocin can be used as a suitable clinical agent for the treatment of T-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.

Impact of L-carnitine and Selenium Treatment on Testicular Apoptosis in Rats Exposed to 2.45 GHz Microwave Energy

Issue:

Vol 64, Issue 2: March (2015)

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2014.205

Pages:

55–61

Synopsis:

Electromagnetic radiation by wireless device (2.45 GHz) induces testicular apoptosis. Effects of supplemental selenium and L-carnitine on testicular apoptosis by 2.45 GHz microwave energy were evaluated.

ABSTRACT

Objective: It has been suggested that electromagnetic radiation (EMR) by wireless devices (2.45 GHz) induces testicular apoptosis. We investigated if supplemental selenium (Se) and L-carnitine may reduce this adverse effect.

The Effect of Combining Interferon-a and Geﬁtinib in Human Colon Cancer Cell Lines

Issue:

Vol 60, issue 2 (2011)

Pages:

107–13

Synopsis:

Li Yang, Fang Wang, Fang He, LiYa HUANG Interferon-α promotes the antiproliferative effect of gefitinib on human colon cancer cell lines SW-480 and LOVO.

ABSTRACT

Background and Aims: Interferon-α (IFN-α) treatment is associated with up-regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression and marked growth inhibition of colon cancer cell lines. We aimed to determine the effect of combining IFN-α and gefitinib in the growth of human colon cancer cell lines.
