Acquired tolerance of hepatocellular carcinoma cells to selenium deficiency: a selective survival mechanism?
(American Association for Cancer Research, 2003)Selenium is essential to human health, and its deficiency is associated with different diseases including liver necrosis. Selenium is protective against viral hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The underlying ... -
Attributed relational graphs for cell nucleus segmentation in fluorescence microscopy images
(IEEE, 2013)More rapid and accurate high-throughput screening in molecular cellular biology research has become possible with the development of automated microscopy imaging, for which cell nucleus segmentation commonly constitutes ... -
Genetics and epigenetics of liver cancer
(Elsevier, 2013)Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents a major form of primary liver cancer in adults. Chronic infections with hepatitis B (HBV) and C (HCV) viruses and alcohol abuse are the major factors leading to HCC. This deadly ... -
Nuclear exclusion of p33ING1b tumor suppressor protein: explored in HCC cells using a new highly specific antibody
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2009)Mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAb) were generated against p33ING1b tumor suppressor protein. 15B9 MAb was highly specific in recognizing a single protein band of ∼33 kDa endogenous p33ING1b protein from HCC cell lines and ... -
PPAR-alpha L162V polymorphism in human hepatocellular carcinoma
(Turkish Society of Gastroenterology, 2008)Background/aims: Several lines of evidence suggest that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha may be involved in hepatocarcinogenesis. L162V polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha ... -
Quantification of SLIT-ROBO transcripts in hepatocellular carcinoma reveals two groups of genes with coordinate expression
(BioMed Central, 2008)Background: SLIT-ROBO families of proteins mediate axon pathfinding and their expression is not solely confined to nervous system. Aberrant expression of SLIT-ROBO genes was repeatedly shown in a wide variety of cancers, ... -
Quinoides and VEGFR2 TKIs influence the fate of hepatocellular carcinoma and its cancer stem cells
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)Bioactivities of quinoides 1–5 and VEGFR2 TKIs 6–10 in hepatocellular cancer (HCC) and cancer stem cells (HCSCs) were studied. The compounds exhibited IC50 values in μM concentrations in HCC cells. Quinoide 3 was able to ... -
Synthesis and characterization of amino acid conjugates of oleanolic acid and their in vitro cytotoxic effect on HCC cell lines
(Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2014)Oleanolic acid (3β-hydroxy-olean-12-en-28-oic acid; OA-01), a pentacyclic triterpene, exhibit a wide range of pharmacological and biological activities. We have isolated oleanolic acid from methanolic extract of Periploca ...
