Herein we report the use of ultrasonic irradiation (US) in synthesis six new semi-synthetic selenium-containing chrysin derivatives by a simple and effective methodology utilizing CuI as catalyst, good to excellent yields (60-89%). It was observed that US accelerates reaction compared conventional heating with selectivity for diselenylated products. Compounds were tested their antioxidant anticancer activities vitro it presence selenium A-ring enhanced both properties. Semi-synthetic...
ABSTRACT Cancer cells have heterogeneous fitness, and this heterogeneity stems from genetic epigenetic sources. Here, we sought to assess the contribution of asymmetric mitosis (AM) time on variability fitness in sister cells. Around one quarter sisters had differences assessed as intermitotic (IMT), 330 510 min. Phenotypes related such ERK activity (herein referring ERK1 ERK2, also known MAPK3 MAPK1, respectively), DNA damage nuclear morphological phenotypes were at or turned over course...
Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) represents the most frequent type of bladder cancer. Recently, studies have focused on molecular tumor classifications in order to diagnose subtypes and predict future clinical behavior. Increased expression HER1 HER2 receptors TTC is related advanced stage tumors. Lapatinib an important alternative treat tumors that presents this phenotype due its ability inhibit tyrosine kinase residues associated with receptors. This study evaluated cytotoxicity induced...
Several phenotypes that impact the capacity of cancer cells to survive and proliferate are dynamic. Here we used number in colonies as an assessment fitness devised a novel method called Dynamic Fitness Analysis (DynaFit) measure dynamics over course colony formation. DynaFit is based on variance growth rate population founder compared with different sizes. revealed cell lines, primary cells, fibroblasts under unhindered conditions Key cellular mechanisms such ERK signaling cell-cycle...
The study of gene expression in maize varieties represents a powerful tool aiming to increase vitamin A precursors. However, the isolation RNA from different is challenging because these show levels polysaccharides, and most methods available for are inappropriate grain samples. polysaccharides co-purify co-precipitate with during isolation, resulting low-quality RNA, compromising use subsequent applications. Thus, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-based method was adapted this compared...
Abstract This article discloses the synthesis and biological in vitro activity of a novel class compounds derived from 5′‐arylchalcogenyl‐3‐(phenylselanyl‐triazoyl)‐thymidine as antitumor agents 5637 bladder carcinoma. The new molecules obtained good yields proved to be efficient. property, which was presented by series these unpublished compounds, demonstrates importance presence nucleoside portion chalcogenium atom molecule.
High-throughput time-lapse microscopy has allowed researchers to monitor individual cells as they grow into colonies and react treatments, but a deeper understanding of the data obtained after image analysis is still lacking. This partly due biological computational challenges related long-running experiments single-cell tracking. In this work, we present Clonal Variability Simulator (CloVarS), Python tool for generating synthetic lineage trees model experiments. After colony initialization,...
