Abstract Cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity is related to an increase in oxidative stress the kidney. Lycopene, a carotenoid found tomatoes, potent dietary antioxidant. In present study, we investigated effect of tomato lycopene complex against cisplatin-induced lipid peroxidation and rats. Male Wistar rats (n = 28, 8 wk old, between 200–215 g) were divided into 4 groups: (a) control, (b) (6 mg/kg, daily; consisting 6% lycopene, 1.5% tocopherols, 1% phytoene phytofluene, 0.2% β-carotene), (c)...

PFKFB3 (6-phosphofructose-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 3) is a enzyme involved in glycolysis, the process by which cells convert glucose into energy. known to be overexpressed many types of cancer, including glioblastoma, highly aggressive brain tumour. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) biological mechanism linked cancer growth and enhanced invasion metastasis. Inhibition glioblastoma seen as potential therapeutic strategy target EMT inhibit progression. Various small...

Abstract Resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs is a critical problem in cancer therapy, but the underlying mechanism has not been fully elucidated. TP53‐induced glycolysis regulatory phosphatase (TIGAR), an important and apoptosis regulator, plays crucial role cell survival by protecting cells against oxidative stress‐induced apoptosis. In present study, we investigated whether TIGAR involved epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) doxorubicin (DOX)‐resistant human non‐small lung (NSCLC),...
