Journal ArticleDOI

Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using fresh water green alga Pithophora oedogonia (Mont.) Wittrock and evaluation of their antibacterial activity

TL;DR: In this paper, the aqueous extract of Pithophora oedogonia was used to produce silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by reduction of silver nitrate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Histone deacetylases: a saga of perturbed acetylation homeostasis in cancer.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge of HDACs in tumorigenesis and tumor progression as well as their contribution to the hallmarks of cancer and discusses the potential role of histone deacetylase inhibitors as emerging epigenetic drugs to cure cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

An insight into the various regulatory mechanisms modulating human DNA methyltransferase 1 stability and function

TL;DR: This review aims to provide a comprehensive account of the various regulatory mechanisms and interactions of DNMT1 so as to elucidate its function at the molecular level and understand the dynamics of DNA methylation at the cellular level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression profiling of DNA methylation-mediated epigenetic gene-silencing factors in breast cancer

TL;DR: The epigenetic modulators AZA, TSA, SFN, and SAM may provide opportunities for cancer prevention by regulating the components of epigenetic gene-silencing machinery especially DNMTs and MBDs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of DNA methyltransferase-inhibitor interactions: Procyanidin B2 shows new promise for therapeutic intervention of cancer.

TL;DR: In vitro analysis demonstrates the efficiency of procyanidin B2 in attenuating DNMT activity at IC50 of 6.88±0.647 μM and offers platform for pre-clinical trial and an insight to the treatment of cancer.
