Efficacy of Deguelin and Silibinin on Benzo(a)pyrene-Induced Lung Tumorigenesis in A/J Mice
We evaluated deguelin and silibinin in A/J mice treated with the tobacco-specific carcinogen benzo(a)pyrene (BP) for their ability to inhibit pulmonary adenoma formation and growth. Animals were treated with either deguelin (5.0 or 10.0 mg/kg body weight,

BAD, a Proapoptotic Protein, Escapes ERK/RSK Phosphorylation in Deguelin and siRNA-Treated HeLa Cells. [PDF]
This study has been undertaken to explore the therapeutic effects of deguelin and specific siRNAs in HeLa cells. The data provided clearly show the silencing of ERK 1/2 with siRNAs and inhibition of ERK1/2 with deguelin treatment in HeLa cells ...

Mitochondrial DNA mutations in ageing and cancer
Mitochondrial DNA mutations are a common feature of ageing tissues and a number of human cancers. They can affect essential mitochondrial functions such as oxidative phosphorylation, redox balance, apoptosis, and numerous biosynthetic pathways. These are important mechanisms which reportedly impact tumour growth, though data are often contradictory ...

Ligands selectively targeting DNA G‐quadruplexes (G4s) represent valuable targeted anticancer drugs. Aiming at speeding the identification of G4‐targeting ligands, the affinity chromatography‐based assay named G‐quadruplex on Oligo Affinity Support (G4‐OAS) was developed, by synthesizing G4‐forming sequences on commercial polystyrene OAS.

Abstract Seed inoculation with beneficial microorganisms has gained importance as it has been proven to show biostimulant activity in plants, especially in terms of abiotic/biotic stress tolerance and plant growth promotion, representing a sustainable way to ensure yield stability under low input sustainable agriculture. Nevertheless, limited knowledge
