Cytotoxicity - Definition, Identification, and Cytotoxic Compounds
Life is a short process between mortality and immortality. In fact, immortality is not as interesting as imagined. Together with the transition from unicellular cells to multicellular organisms, cytotoxicity has a different meaning. While cytotoxicity in

Effect of size, shape, and surface modification on cytotoxicity of gold nanoparticles to human Hep-2 and canine MDCK cells [PDF]
There have been increasing interests in applying gold nanoparticles in biological research, drug delivery, and therapy. As the interaction of gold nanoparticles with cells relies on properties of nanoparticles, the cytotoxicity is complex and still under

Fibril Fragmentation Enhances Amyloid Cytotoxicity [PDF]
Fibrils associated with amyloid disease are molecular assemblies of key biological importance, yet how cells respond to the presence of amyloid remains unclear. Cellular responses may not only depend on the chemical composition or molecular properties of

Cytotoxicity of etietinate and vindesine [PDF]
The effects of an aromatic retinoid, etretinate and a vinca alkaloid, vindesine were investigated by culture of malignant melanoma cells in vitro with these two agents; either separately or in combination. Etretinate inhibited growth of a murine melanoma but only minimal effects were recorded with two human melanomas.

Mechanism of cytotoxicity of paraquat [PDF]
Acute paraquat poisoning seems to be very complex because many possible mechanisms of paraquat cytotoxicity have been reported. Some may not be the cause of paraquat poisoning but the result or an accompanying phenomenon of paraquat action. The mechanism critical for cell damage is still unknown.
