Chromosomal aberrations induced by 5-azacytidine combined with VP-16 (etoposide) in CHO-K1 and XRS-5 cell lines
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2003-01-01)
A cytogenetic study was carried out with 5-azacytidine (5-azaC) and etoposide (VP-16) in CHO-K1 and XRS-5 (mutant cells deficient for double-strand break rejoining) cell lines to verify the interaction effects of the drugs ...
Chromosome damage induced by 5-azacytidine under the influence of caffeine or cytosine arabinoside in CHO-K1 (wild-type) and XRS-5 (mutant) cell lines
(2001-07-14)
5-azacytidine (5-azaC) treatment combined with cytosine arabinoside (ara-C) or caffeine were performed in vitro in Chinese hamster cells, CHO-K1 (wild-type) and xrs-5 (mutant) cell lines, in order to compare the cell ...
DNA methylation, ageing and ribosomal genes activity
(Kluwer Academic Publ, 2000-01-01)
DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism controlling of gene expression. We studied the effect of a demethylation agent 5-azacytidine, on ribosomal gene activity observed by Nucleolus Staining Giemsa in the chromosomes ...
Chemomodulation of human dendritic cell function by antineoplastic agents in low noncytotoxic concentrations
(Biomed Central Ltd., 2009-07-10)
The dose-delivery schedule of conventional chemotherapy, which determines its efficacy and toxicity, is based on the maximum tolerated dose. This strategy has lead to cure and disease control in a significant number of ...
Identification, Selection, and Enrichment of Cardiomyocyte Precursors
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2013-01-01)
The large-scale production of cardiomyocytes is a key step in the development of cell therapy and tissue engineering to treat cardiovascular diseases, particularly those caused by ischemia. the main objective of this study ...
