L-Asparaginase produced by Streptomyces strain isolated from Egyptian soil: Purification, characterization and evaluation of its anti-tumor

TL;DR: In conclusion, L-asparaginase from S. halstedii showed anti-tumor activity and cytotoxic effect against cancer cell line in vitro and in vitro, and the reduction of tumor size in albino mice may be attributed to the elevation of CAT and SOD activities as well as the diminishing of MDA.
Journal ArticleDOI

TKTL1 expression and its downregulation is implicated in cell proliferation inhibition and cell cycle arrest in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

TL;DR: TKTL1 as a key prognostic factor may be a novel target for therapy of the patients with ESCC and its underlying biological functions in ESCC are preliminarily elucidated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fenofibrate enhances radiosensitivity of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma by suppressing hypoxia-inducible factor-1α expression.

TL;DR: The data suggest that fenofibrate may be a potential radiosensitive drug, and the inhibition of HIF-1α and VEGF expression in ESCC cells contributed to the radiosensitive effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compounds that Combine Aldose Reductase Inhibitory Activity and Ability to Prevent the Glycation (Glucation and/or Fructation) of Proteins as Putative Pharmacotherapeutic Agents

TL;DR: The data that will be presented will aim to support the notion that compounds which combine aldose reductase inhibitory activity and ability to prevent the glycation of proteins posses' pharmacotherapeutic potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antitumor activity of new enantiopure pybox-ruthenium complexes.

TL;DR: ruthenium complexes containing enantiopure 2,6-bis[4'(R)-phenyloxazolin-2'-il-pyridine] and water soluble 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) or N-substituted PTA phosphanes have been synthesized in high yields and fully characterized and their cytotoxic activity against the human cervical cancer HeLa cell line is reported.
