Spatane diterpinoids isolated from the brown marine algae Stoechospermum marginatum were known to have cytotoxic effects in human cancerous cell lines and murine melanoma cells; underling apoptotic mechanism of still remains unclear so far. Thus, present study, a spatane diterpinoid, 5(R), 19‐diacetoxy‐15,18(R S), dihydro spata‐13, 16(E)‐diene (DDSD) was investigated mainly B16F10 cells because they most susceptible DDSD than THP1, U937, COLO205, HL60 cells. The treatment B6F10 with resulted...

A series of 3-[3-[4-(Substituted)-1-cyclicamine]propyl]thio-5-substituted[1,2,4]triazoles (8a-j) were synthesized with good yields starting from corresponding carboxylic acids. The cytotoxicity studies these derivatives studied against five different human cancer cell lines. Three compounds had shown anticancer activity. triazole derivatives, 8i and 8j most potent particularly U937 HL-60 cells. cytotoxic potency the varied between lines suggesting that a structural property as possible...

Proper cell division relies on the coordinated regulation between a structural component, mitotic spindle, and regulatory anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C). Hematopoietic PBX-interacting protein (HPIP) is microtubule-associated that plays pivotal role in proliferation, migration, tumor metastasis. Here, using HEK293T HeLa cells, along with immunoprecipitation immunoblotting, live-cell imaging, protein-stability assays, we report HPIP expression oscillates throughout cycle its...

Constitutively activated tyrosine kinase JAK3 is implicated in the pathogenesis of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL). The mechanisms constitutive activation are unknown although a mutation was reported small portion CTCL patients. In this study, we assessed oncogenic roles newly identified JAK3-INSL3 fusion transcript CTCL. Total RNA from malignant T-cells 33 patients with Sézary syndrome (SS), leukemic form CTCL, examined for new by RT-PCR followed Sanger sequencing. expression levels were...

We have shown that membrane-associated guanylate kinase with inverted domain structure-1 (MAGI1), a scaffold protein six PSD95/DiscLarge/ZO-1 (PDZ) domains, is involved in the regulation of endothelial cell (EC) activation and atherogenesis mice. In addition to causing acute respiratory disease, influenza A virus (IAV) infection plays an important role triggers coronary syndromes fatal myocardial infarction. Therefore, aim this study investigate function MAGI1 IAV-induced EC activation....

Abstract Mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS) are two most common types of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Despite advances in understanding the pathogenesis MF SS, effective treatments remain limited. CC chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) is highly expressed on CTCL cells serves as a great therapeutic target. Mogamulizumab, an FDA-approved anti-CCR4 antibody, has shown efficacy treating MF/SS; however, its side effects have raised concerns, underscoring need for more less toxic...
