Differential effects of quercetin and its two derivatives (isorhamnetin and isorhamnetin-3- glucuronide) in inhibiting proliferation of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells [PDF]
Quercetin (Que) has consistently been reported to be useful cytotoxic compound in vivo and in vitro, but little is known on its metabolites. Here we examined and compared cytotoxic effect of Que and its water-soluble metabolites, isorhamnetin (IS) and ...

Overexpression of microRNA-16 declines cellular growth, proliferation and induces apoptosis in human breast cancer cells [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNA) are a large family of small single-stranded RNA molecules found in all multicellular organisms. Early studies have been shown that miRNA are involved in cancer development and progression, and this role can be done by working as an ...
