        Nowadays apphcanon of nanotubes in biology and medicinal science is more investigated. Nanotubes can passthroueh cell walls and transport and release drugs in special tissues. The purpose of this paper is to investigatethe interaction of a nanotube having hydroxyl functional groups (OH) with an anticancer agent. In this worktransporting of an anticancer drug named 2-(2-amino 6,7-dimethyl Pteridine 4-ylammo)-ethanol by a zigzagnanotube with 60 C atoms (5,0) is investigated. The methods used are quantum mechanics and seroiemphical.Two composites of the drug and nanotube are under studying: I-compose of drug and nanotubes wall 2-compose of drug and one of the two heads of nanombe. At first some hydroxylic functional groups are put onthe head of nanotube and then an etheric bond formed between agents. The results show that the composite ismore stable than the single agent. Also binding of drug with the head of the nanotube is more stable than thewall. In the other case the Interaction between a carbon nanotube (9,0) and Levothyroxine as a drug isinvestigated. All of above composites art investigated by semiempincal methods and MolecularMechanicsiMolecular Ilymunics simulation in body temperature (310 K) and their heat capacities are obtainedin water, methanol and ethanol solutions separately. The results show that by increasing initial temperature inmost of the cases heat capacity increase& Also it can be seen that by increasing of solvent molecular mass, theheat capacity increases too. تفاصيل المقالة

        The requirement for abiding by strict environmental protection regulations has caused many researchers during the past decades to go after using green and cheap compounds available from renewable sources like plant metabolites (bioactive compounds). Improving the corrosion prevention effect of various plant extracts is of utmost importance in this regard, for which a novel nanoemulsion-based strategy is proposed in the present paper. The corrosion inhibitors that participated in this study included Amaranthus, Althermanthea, and Cionura erecta (L.) Griseb, which was investigated against mild steel in 0.5 mol·L-1 HCl media. The presented data were obtained via electrochemical techniques (EIS andpolarization)and surface analyses (SEM). The researchers also used Dynamic light scattering to evaluate the particles’ sizes in nanoemulsion solutions. Nanoemulsions indicated hydrodynamic diameter below 500 nm, meanwhile having narrow particle size distribution.Findings presented that 100 mg/L of Amaranthus extract nanoemulsion resulted in an inhibition efficiency of 91%, denoting that a slight amount of Amaranthus inhibitor extract could produce greater efficiency. The SEM analysis results were decisive in proving that the absorption of Amaranthus molecules on the surface of metal decreased its dissolution rate substantially, producing a smooth and clean surface. One primary reason for the effective adsorption of extracts on metal surfaces via chelation with iron atoms refers to the presence of an abundant number of electron donor Oxygen- based atoms in the molecules of different aerial parts of the extracts. Further description for the extract inhibitory mechanism is the physical adsorption of the section on the surface layer of metal followed by the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The nanoemulsion Amaranthus extract in this process absorbs approx. -24.7 kJ·mol-1 of free energy. the cytotoxicity test through MTT assay on A172 and SHSY5Y cell lines was used, revealing the therapeutic impact on initiating cytotoxic response in neural cell lines, and anticancer activity. تفاصيل المقالة

        The tree Cryptocarya concinna Hance is largely distributed in southeast Asia and essentially used for its robust wood. Alcoholic extracts made from the leaves or roots of the plant have revealed anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties. The DNA-damaging dihydrochalcone derivative cryptocaryone accounts for the anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic activities observed with the extracts. Other bioactive products have been isolated, including &alpha;-pyrone derivatives such as cryptoconcatones A-L and flavonoids such as cryptoconones A-E. A structural analogy is underlined between cryptoconcatone D and two known compounds with an &alpha;,&beta;-unsaturated &delta;-lactone: pironetin and the styryl-lactone goniothalamin which targets the peroxisomal protein MFE2 (multifunctional enzyme type2). Pironetin is a potent &alpha;-tubulin binder with robust anticancer properties. By analogy, the binding of cryptoconcatone D to the pironetin-site of &alpha;-tubulin is proposed. The review shed light on the phytochemical constituents of Cryptocarya concinna and the biological properties of &alpha;,&beta;-unsaturated lactone compounds isolated from this little studied plant. تفاصيل المقالة

        Essential oils (EOs) are concentrated liquids extracted from various parts of plants and can be classified based on their phytochemical compounds. Terpenes and terpenoids have a wide range of biological activities, including anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antiallergic properties. Terpenes are plant-based compounds commonly used in the pharmaceutical, food, biofuel, and chemical industries by humans. In synthetic biology, genomic resources and emerging tools facilitate the production of high-quality terpenoids in plants and microbes. Terpenoids, however, are difficult to produce in large quantities due to their complex chemical structures and the limited amounts found in plants. The regulation of terpenoid biosynthesis has gradually emerged as a research priority. This review presents an overview of the biological activities, synthesis pathways, and key enzymes involved in the biosynthetic pathways and regulation of terpenes or terpenoids. This review will also include references for further research on molecular regulation, biological advancements, and increasing the content of terpenes or terpenoids in plants. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this research, some of the inorganic complexes of uranyl with N- donor ligandswere synthesized. Complexes were characteriezed by FT-IR and UV spectra, &sup1;HNMR,&sup1;&sup3;CNMR and some physical properties. The uranyl unit (UO2) is composed of a center ofuranium atom with the charge (+6) and two oxygen atom by forming two U=O double bonds.The structure is linear (O=U=O, 180) and usually stable. So other ligands often coordinate tothe U atom in the plane perpendicularly to the O=U=O axis. The antitumor activity of some ofligand and their complexes against a panel of human tumor cell lines (HT29: Haman colonadenocarcinoma cell line T47D: human breast adenocarcinoma cell line) were determined byMTT(3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide) assay. These datasuggest that some of these compounds provide good models for the further design of potentantitumor compounds. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this study, a single-step method for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Aloe Vera gel extract and sunlight was investigated. The Aloe Vera gel extract is composed of pectins, lignin, and hemicellulose, which can be used in the reduction of silver ions to produce colloidal silver nanoparticles (AgNPs-AV). The preliminary preparation of silver nanoparticles was observed by an immediate color change to brown. The prepared silver nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and zeta potential measurements. Additionally, the cytotoxicity and antimicrobial activity of AgNPs-AV was tested. Results indicated the formation of stable spherical 90±40nm with a strong absorption peak appears between 400 and 500 nm. 28.7 ±0.781% of breast cancer cells survived after incubation with AgNPs-AV invitro for 72 hrs. In addition to AgNPs-AV inhibited the growth of the most important human skin pathogens (candida albicans, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus). The largest inhibition zone was observed for candida albicans. This method for synthesis is very fast, produces spherical colloidal silver nanoparticles having an excellent antioxidant activity, high anticancer therapeutic index and very promising antibacterial activity. This greenly synthesized nano-formulation has a great potential to be explored in many different aspects. تفاصيل المقالة

        Curcumin is the effective constituents of Curcuma longa, which inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Prevention of breast cancer, as one of the common cancer type with serious health problem, is an area of interest in breast cancer research. In this study, we have evaluated the effects of curcumin on the cell proliferation of human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) compared to non-cancer line (MCF-10A). The cell lines were subjected to increasing doses of curcumin ranging from 0 to 30 μg/ml. Cell viability was quantified by MTT assay. In vitro clonogenic survival assay was performed on MCF-7 cells.  Curcumin inhibited the growth of malignant cells in a time and dose-dependent manner. Calculated IC50 value for MCF-7 cells in 48 h was 12 μg/ml.  Overall, 45%–70% decrease in colony formation was observed in MCF-7 cells treated by 30-60 μg/ml curcumin respectively. The result of our study confirms the potential cytotoxic effects of curcumin in breast cancer cell line. It could be considered as a potential chemopreventive agent in breast cancer treatment. تفاصيل المقالة

        گیاه ارس (Juniperus polycarpos) دارای ترکیبات طبیعی زیست فعالی است که برای تولید داروهای ضد التهابی و ضد سرطانی استفاده می شود. هدف این مطالعه بررسی خواص آنتی اکسیدانی و ضدسرطانی عصاره میوه درخت ارس بر روی سلول سرطانی پستان MCF7 می باشد. برای این منظور،جهت عصاره گیری، میوه درخت ارس به مدت 7 روز خشک و سپس به آن ترکیب متانول و HCL اضافه و با همزن مغناطیسی هم زده و پس از قرارگیری در دستگاه تقطیر از طریق کاغذ واتمن فیلتر شد. جهت ارزیابی فعالیت آنتی اکسیدانی عصاره میوه درخت ارس از روش DPPH استفاده و میزان جذب رادیکال های آزاد در طول موج 517 نانومتر خوانده شد. جهت تعیین مقدار IC50از ویتامین C به عنوان یک آنتی اکسیدان استاندارد استفاده شد. سلول سرطانی پستان MCF7 کشت و اثر سایتوتوکسیسیتی عصاره بعد از 48 ساعت به روش MTT assay محاسبه شد. برای تعیین سمیت عصاره از مدل موشی Balb/c استفاده و بعد از تیمار با دوزهای (25، 50 و 100 میلی گرم/کیلوگرم) خون گیری جهت بررسی تغییر تعداد سلول های خونی و جداسازی بافت های کبد، کلیه، روده، طحال جهت تغییرات مورفولوژیکی و بافت‌شناسی انجام شد. درصد مهارکنندگی آنتی اکسیدان عصاره میوه درخت ارس در غلظت300 میکروگرم در میلی لیتر، به ترتیب با دو روش DPPH وFRAP 25/2 &plusmn; 47/59 و 09/2&plusmn;19/63 درصد بوده و این مقادیر از میزان استاندارد‌ بکاررفته یعنی ویتامین C کمتر بود. 9/66 میکروگرم بر میلی لیتر از عصاره میوه توانست 50 درصد از رشد سلول های سرطانی پستان را در طی مدت زمان 48 ساعت مهار کند. آنالیز سلول های خونی و بافتی تغییرات معنی داری را در تعداد سلول های خونی و تغییرات مورفولوژیکی بافتی نشان نداد. یافته ها، اثر سایتوتوکسیسیتی عصاره برروی سلول های سرطان پستان را نشان داد. از طرفی عصاره باعث مسمومیت در مدل موشی نشده و برروی بافت های حیوان و سلول های خونی تاثیر معنی داری نداشته است. تفاصيل المقالة

        کنژوگه کردن نانوذرات فلزی با تیوسمی کاربازید یا مشتقات آن می توند منجر به بهبود پایداری و قابلیت ضدسرطانی آنان از طریق القاء آپوپتوزیس در سلول‌های سرطانی شود. بنابراین، هدف از این مطالعه سنتز نانوذرات اکسید روی عامل دار شده با گلوتامیک اسید کنژوگه شده با تیو سمی کاربازی أکثر
        کنژوگه کردن نانوذرات فلزی با تیوسمی کاربازید یا مشتقات آن می توند منجر به بهبود پایداری و قابلیت ضدسرطانی آنان از طریق القاء آپوپتوزیس در سلول‌های سرطانی شود. بنابراین، هدف از این مطالعه سنتز نانوذرات اکسید روی عامل دار شده با گلوتامیک اسید کنژوگه شده با تیو سمی کاربازید (Zn@Glu/TSC) و سپس ارزیابی قابلیت ضد سرطانی آنان از طریق سنجش سمیت سلولی و بیان ژن‌های دخیل در تنظیم آپوپتوزیس در سلول‌های آدنوکارسینومای معده (AGS) است. ویژگی‌های فیزیکی-شیمیایی نانوذرات سنتز شده از طریق آنالیزهای FT-IR، میکروسکوپ الکترونی نگاره و گذاره و اندازه‌گیری پتانسیل زتا تعیین گردید. میزان سمیت سلولی و دوز مهاری میانه نانوذرات بر سلول‌های AGS از طریق آزمایش MTT تعیین گردید. سپس میزان بیان ژن‌های caspase-3، bax و bcl-2 در سلول‌های مواجهه یافته با نانوذرات از طریق آزمایش Real time PCR مورد ارزیابی قرا گرفت. نتایج نشان داد که نانوذرات ساخته‌شده کروی بوده و دارای اندازه 10 تا 90 نانومتر بودند. ماهیت ذرات توسط طیف‌سنجی FT-IR تائید شد و مقدار پتانسیل زتا نیز mV 7/11- به دست آمد. نانوذرات ساخته‌شده در غلظت‌های &micro;g/mL 62/15 و بالاتر به‌طور چشمگیری باعث کاهش زنده‌مانی سلول‌های AGS شدند و مقدار دوز مهاری میانه &micro;g/mL 90 به دست آمد. همچنین، در سلول‌های مواجهه یافته با نانوذرات بیان ژن‌های caspase-3 و bax به میزان 67/1 و 80/1 برابر افزایش داشت درحالی‌که میزان بیان ژن bcl-2 به میزان 70/0 برابر در مقایسه با سلول‌های کنترل کاهش معنی‌دار داشت. تفاصيل المقالة
