β-Lapachone (β-Lap), morphine (Mor), and electromagnetic field (EMF) generate reactive oxygen species. The goal of the present study was to examine the effects of Mor and EMF, in combination with β-Lap on the cell growth inhibition and expression of several antioxidant genes. The 0.50 mT intensity of 50 Hz EMF and two exposure conditions (“15 min field-on/15 min field-off” and “30 min field-on continuously”) on SH-SY5Y cells were used. The effects of Mor and EMF, in combination with β-Lap on cell growth inhibition and the expression levels of several antioxidant genes ( NQO1, NQO2, SOD1, SOD2, CAT, GSTO1, GSTM2, GSTM3, GSTP1, MGST1, MGST3) in SH-SY5Y cells were measured. The relative mRNA levels were calculated according to the \({{\text{2}}^ - }^{{\Delta \Delta {{\text{C}}_{\text{t}}}}}\). Whereas NQO1 mRNA level decreased in the “15 min field-on/15 min field-off” condition, the expression level of NQO2 was increased. Both NQO1 and NQO2 expressions increased in Mor treated cells. IC 50 values of β-Lap in combination with Mor, EMF, and “Mor?+?EMF” were higher than cells treated only with β-Lap. The NQO1 expression level in the cells treated with β-Lap was higher than the other treatments, indicating that β-Lap induces the expression of NQO1. Moreover, multiple linear regression analysis indicated that NQO1 mRNA levels were associated positively with β-Lap and negatively with EMF. At least in part, the mRNA levels of NQO1 were associated with IC 50 values of β-Lap in designed treatments. There is a negative association between mRNA levels of NQO1 and IC 50 values of β-Lap but not NQO2. 相似文献

A number of epidemiological studies have suggested that exposure to environmental and occupational electromagnetic fields (EMFs) contribute to the induction of brain tumors. The aim of this study was to investigate the mutagenetic effects of co-exposure to 50-Hz, 10-mT EMFs and bleomycin (BLM) using an ex vivo newborn rat astrocyte micronucleus assay. We also investigated whether the mutagenetic effects of EMFs were related to active oxygen species by using 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl piperidine-1-oxyl (tempol), a superoxide radical scavenger. Three-day-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were co-exposed to 50-Hz EMFs and BLM (5 or 10mg/kg body weight (BW)) in each group (n=6; total 6 group), and were co-exposed to 50-Hz EMFs and 10mg/kg BW BLM with administration of 200μmol/kg BW tempol in each group (total 4 group). Brain cells were dissociated into single cells, cultured for 96h, incubated with an antibody against glial fibrillary acidic protein, and stained with acridine orange. The frequency of micronucleated astrocytes was determined using a fluorescence microscope. The frequency of micronucleated astrocytes in the 10mg/kg BW bleomycin plus EMF exposure group (Mean±SD: 19.8±5.2‰) was 1.6 times higher than that in the 10mg/kg BW bleomycin plus sham-exposure group (Mean±SD: 12.7±3.3‰) (p<0.05). Analysis of the frequency of micronuclei in astrocytes after co-exposure to EMF and bleomycin for 72h and administration of tempol revealed that, in the EMF exposure group, the frequency of micronuclei in rats administered with 10mg/kg BW bleomycin and treated with tempol (Mean±SD: 11.2±1.9‰) was 40% of that in rats administered with the same dose of bleomycin and physiological saline (Mean±SD: 28.0±15.0‰) (p<0.01). Results of the current study suggested that the mechanism responsible for the elevated frequency of micronuclei in astrocytes of rats co-exposed to BLM and EMFs is related to active oxygen species. 相似文献

The most widely used platinum-derived drug is cisplatin in neuroblastoma (NB) chemotherapy, which is severely neurotoxic.
Acetyl- l-Carnitine (ALC) is a natural occurring compound with a neuroprotective activity in several experimental paradigms. The aim
of this study was to determine the effects of ALC on cisplatin induced cytotoxicity and oxidative stress in NB cells. SH-SY5Y
(N-Myc negative) and KELLY (N-Myc positive) human NB cell lines were used. Cisplatin induced apoptosis was assessed by using
a Cell Death Detection ELISA PLUS kit. Lipid peroxidation levels were determined by HPLC analysis. Glutathione levels were determined spectrophotometrically.
ALC was used prophylactic or after cisplatin application. The level of cisplatin doses were determined in both type of NB
cells at which 50% cell death occurred along with synchronized apoptosis induced. Prophylactic 10 and 50 μmol of ALC concentrations
were decreased cisplatin induced lipid peroxidation compared to controls that normally exhibited apoptosis especially in SH-SY5Y
cells. Cisplatin caused oxidative stress through decreasing glutathione levels in both cell types. ALC were effectively inhibited
the increase in cisplatin induced oxidized glutathione and lipid peroxidation formation in NB cells. We suggested that prophylactic
ALC would be a useful agent for cisplatin induced toxicity in NB cells. 相似文献

Background: In breast cancers, calcium signaling is a main cause of proliferation and apoptosis of breast cancer cells. Although previous studies have implicated the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) cation channel, the synergistic inhibition effects of selenium (Se) and cisplatin in cancer and the suppression of ongoing apoptosis have not yet been investigated in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. This study investigates the anticancer properties of Se through TRPV1 channel activity in MCF-7 breast cancer cell line cultures when given alone or in combination with cisplatin. Materials: The MCF-7 cells were divided into four groups: the control group, the Se-treated group (200?nM), the cisplatin-treated group (40?μM) and the Se?+?cisplatin-treated group. Results: The intracellular free calcium ion concentration and current densities increased with TRPV1 channel activator capsaicin (0.01?mM), but they decreased with the TRPV1 blocker capsazepine (0.1?mM), Se, cisplatin, and Se?+?cisplatin incubations. However, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, apoptosis, and the caspase 3, and caspase 9 values increased in the Se-treated group and the cisplatin-treated group, although Western blot (procaspase 3 and 9) results and the cell viability levels decreased with the Se and Se?+?cisplatin treatments. Apoptosis and caspase-3 were further increased with the Se?+?cisplatin treatment. Intracellular reactive oxygen species production increased with the cisplatin treatment, but not with the Se treatment. Conclusion: This study’s results report, for the first time, that at a cellular level, Se and cisplatin interact on the same intracellular toxic cascade, and the combination of these two drugs can result in a remarkable anticancer effect through modulation of the TRPV1. 相似文献

The correlation between shape and concentration of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), their cytotoxicity and formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the presence of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) has been investigated. In addition, the bio-effects caused by the combination of EMFs and graphene nanoparticles (GrNPs) have been also assessed. The AgNPs of three shapes (triangular, spherical and colloidal) and GrNPs were added in high concentrations to the culture of human fibroblasts and exposed to EMF of three different frequencies: 900, 2400 and 7500 MHz. The results demonstrated the dependence of the EMF-induced cytotoxicity on the shape and concentration of AgNPs. The maximal cell killing effect was observed at 900 MHz frequency for NPs of all shapes and concentrations. The highest temperature elevation was observed for GrNPs solution irradiated by EMF of 900 MHz frequency. The exposure to EMF led to significant increase of ROS formation in triangular and colloidal AgNPs solutions. However, no impact of EMF on ROS production was detected for spherical AgNPs. GrNPs demonstrated ROS-protective activity that was dependent on their concentration. Our findings indicate the feasibility to control cytotoxicity of AgNPs by means of EMFs. The effect EMF on the biological activity of AgNPs and GrNPs is reported here for the first time. 相似文献

The baculovirus expression vector system is widely used for the production of recombinant proteins. However, the yield of membrane-bound or secreted proteins is relatively low when compared with intracellular or nuclear proteins. In a previous study, we had demonstrated that the co-expression of the human chaperones calreticulin (CALR) or β-synuclein (β-syn) increased the production of a secreted protein considerably. A similar effect was also seen when co-expressing insect translation initiation factor eIF4E. In this study, different combinations of the three genes were tested (CALR alone, β-syn?+?CALR, or β-syn?+?CALR?+?eIF4E) to further improve secretory protein production by assessing the expression level of a recombinant secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEFP). An additional 1.8-fold increment of SEFP production was obtained when cells co-expressed all the three “helper” genes, compared to cells, in which only CALR was co-produced with SEFP. Moreover, the duration of the SEFP production lasted much longer in cells that co-expressed these three “helper” genes, up to 10 dpi was observed. Utilization of this “triple-supporters” containing vector offers significant advantages when producing secreted proteins and is likely to have benefits for the production of viral vaccines and other pharmaceutical products. 相似文献

Gambogic acid (GA) is the dry resin of Garcinia hanburyi (Guttiferae) with potent anti-tumor activity, various bioactivities, including detoxification, homeostasis, anti-inflammatory, and parasiticide, whereas the effect of this natural compound on cancer cells has not been clearly clarified. Here, we examined cellular cytotoxicity by cell viability assay and DNA fragmentation by DNA-ladder assay. Activation of different protein expressions were detected by western blot analyses. We first demonstrated that GA reduces the human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell viability with IC 50 of 1.28 μM at 6 h which has less toxicity in fibroblast cells. However, lower concentration GA significantly downregulated the expression of anti-apoptotic protein including Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, and Mcl-1, which also dramatically activated cleaved caspase-9 and -3 in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Consequently, GA-induced cytotoxicity was not mediated by the Fas/FasL and PI3 K/AKT/GSK-3β signaling pathway. In addition, GA-induced cells showed damage morphology which had become cell rounding, neurite retraction, membrane blebbing and shrunken in a dose- and time-dependent manner that clearly indicates this morphological change might be due to the process of apoptosis which shows fragmented DNA. Therefore, the findings presented in this study demonstrate that apoptotic effects of GA on SH-SY5Y cells are mediated by intrinsic mitochondrion-dependent caspase pathway which suggests this natural compound might be effective as an anti-cancer agent for neuroblastoma malignancies. 相似文献

Deregulation of apoptosis alters the balance of cell proliferation and cell death, resulting in a variety of diseases, including cancer. In recent studies, sulforaphane (SFN) has demonstrated potent anti-tumor and chemopreventive activities. A possible signal transduction pathway has also been elucidated for SFN-induced apoptosis in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. The present study further investigates the anti-proliferation activities of SFN through induced apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells. We found that treating SH-SY5Y cells with SFN resulted in the depletion of mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψ), which in turn increased caspase 9, caspase 3, and the up-regulation of phosphorylated MEK/ERK without generating reactive oxygen species. Results were confirmed by MTT assay, which demonstrated the cytotoxic activity of SFN against SH-SY5Y cells (IC 50 values of 20 μM). 相似文献

Spondias pinnata, a commonly distributed tree in India, previously proven for various pharmacological properties and also reported for efficient anti-oxidant, free radical scavenging and iron chelating activity, continuing this, the present study is aimed to investigate the role of 70 % methanolic extract of S. pinnata bark (SPME) in promoting apoptosis in human lung adenocarcinoma cell line (A549) and human breast adenocarcinoma cell line (MCF-7). These two malignant cell lines and a normal cell line were treated with increasing concentrations of SPME and cell viability is calculated. SPME showed significant cytotoxicity to both A549 and MCF-7 cells with an IC 50 value of 147.84 ± 3.74 and 149.34 ± 13.30 μg/ml, respectively, whereas, comparatively no cytotoxicity was found in normal human lung fibroblast cell line (WI-38): IC 50 932.38 ± 84.44 μg/ml. Flow cytometric analysis and confocal microscopic studies confirmed that SPME is able to induce apoptosis in both malignant cell lines. Furthermore, immunoblot result proposed the pathway of apoptosis induction by increasing Bax/Bcl-2 ratio in both cell types, which results in the activation of the caspase-cascade and ultimately leads to the cleavage of Poly adeno ribose polymerase. For the first time this study proved the anticancer potential of SPME against human lung and breast cancer by inducing apoptosis through the modulation of Bcl-2 family proteins. This might take S. pinnata in light to investigate it for further development as therapeutic anticancer source. 相似文献

Human SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells maintain their potential for differentiation and regression in culture conditions. The induction of differentiation could serve as a strategy to inhibit cell proliferation and tumor growth. Previous studies have shown that differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells can be induced by all- trans-retinoic-acid (RA) and cholesterol (CHOL). However, signaling pathways that lead to terminal differentiation of SH-SY5Y cells are still largely unknown. The goal of this study was to examine in the RA and CHOL treated SH-SY5Y cells the additive impacts of estradiol (E 2) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on cell morphology, cell population growth, synaptic vesicle recycling and presence of neurofilaments. The above features indicate a higher level of neuronal differentiation. Our data show that treatment for 10 days in vitro (DIV) with RA alone or when combined with E 2 (RE) or CHOL (RC), but not when combined with BDNF (RB), significantly ( p < 0.01) inhibited the cell population growth. Synaptic vesicle recycling, induced by high-K + depolarization, was significantly increased in all treatments where RA was included (RE, RC, RB, RCB), and when all agents were added together (RCBE). Specifically, our results show for the first time that E 2 treatment can alone increase synaptic vesicle recycling in SH-SY5Y cells. This work contributes to the understanding of the ways to improve suppression of neuroblastoma cells’ population growth by inducing maturation and differentiation. 相似文献

The flavonoid quercetin 3-glucoside (Q3G) protected SH-SY5Y, HEK293, and MCF-7 cells against hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress. cDNA microarray studies suggested that Q3G-pretreated cells subjected to oxidative stress up-regulate the expression of genes associated with lipid and cholesterol biosynthesis. Q3G pretreatment elevated both the expression and activation of sterol regulatory element-binding protein-2 (SREBP-2) only in SH-SY5Y cells subjected to oxidative stress. Inhibition of SREBP-2 expression by small interfering RNA or small molecule inhibitors of 2,3-oxidosqualene:lanosterol cyclase or HMG-CoA reductase blocked Q3G-mediated cytoprotection in SH-SY5Y cells. By contrast, Q3G did not protect either HEK293 or MCF-7 cells via this signaling pathway. Moreover, the addition of isopentenyl pyrophosphate rescued SH-SY5Y cells from the inhibitory effect of HMG-CoA reductase inhibition. Last, Q3G pretreatment enhanced the incorporation of [(14)C]acetate into [(14)C]cholesterol in SH-SY5Y cells under oxidative stress. Taken together, these studies suggest a novel mechanism for flavonoid-induced cytoprotection in SH-SY5Y cells involving SREBP-2-mediated sterol synthesis that decreases lipid peroxidation by maintaining membrane integrity in the presence of oxidative stress. 相似文献

Quercetin, the plant-derived phenolic compounds, plays a pivotal role in controlling hemostasis, by having potent antioxidant and free-radical scavenging properties. This flavonoid in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs improves the efficacy of these agents in induction of apoptosis in cancer cells. This study investigated the role of nano-quercetin (phytosome) in doxorubicin-induced apoptosis. Nanoparticles were characterized for particle size, zeta potential, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetric assessments. Anti-proliferative effect of formulations was evaluated by MTT assay. mRNA expression levels of target genes were measured by real time RT-PCR. The mean size of nanoparticles was 85 ± 2 nm with nearly narrow size distribution which was confirmed by SEM analysis. Our results showed that co-treatment of MCF-7 breast cancer cells with nano-quercetin and doxorubicin increased the percentage of apoptosis from 40.11 ± 7.72–58 ± 7.13 (p < 0.05). Furthermore, mRNA expression levels for downstream genes including NQO1 and MRP1 showed a marked decrease (p < 0.05). Taken together, our results suggest that phytosome technology can elevate the efficacy of chemotherapeutics by increasing the permeability of tumor cells to chemical agents. Our findings introduce a novel phytosome-dependent strategy to improve delivery of doxorubicin to the breast cancerous tissues. 相似文献

Docetaxel (Doc) and adriamycin (Adr) are two of the most effective chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of breast cancer. However, their efficacy is often limited by the emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR). The purpose of this study was to investigate MDR mechanisms through analyzing systematically the expression changes of genes related to MDR in the induction process of isogenic drug resistant MCF-7 cell lines. Isogenic resistant sublines selected at 100 and 200 nM Doc (MCF-7/100 nM Doc and MCF-7/200 nM Doc) or at 500 and 1,500 nM Adr (MCF-7/500 nM Adr and MCF-7/1,500 nM) were developed from human breast cancer parental cell line MCF-7, by exposing MCF-7 to gradually increasing concentrations of Doc or Adr in vitro. Cell growth curve, flow cytometry and MTT cytotoxicity assay were preformed to evaluate the MDR characteristics developed in the sublines. Some key genes on the pathways related to drug resistance (including drug-transporters: MDR1, MRP1 and BCRP; drug metabolizing-enzymes: CYP3A4 and glutathione S-transferases (GST) pi; target genes: topoisomerase II (TopoIIα) and Tubb3; apoptosis genes: Bcl-2 and Bax) were analyzed at RNA and protein expression levels by real time RT-qPCR and western blot, respectively. Compared to MCF-7/S (30.6 h), cell doubling time of MCF-7/Doc (41.6 h) and MCF-7/Adr (33.8 h) were both prolonged, and the cell proportion of resistant sublines in G1/G2 phase increased while that in S-phase decreased. MCF-7/100 nM Doc and MCF-7/200 nM Doc was 22- and 37-fold resistant to Doc, 18- and 32-fold to Adr, respectively. MCF-7/500 nM Adr and MCF-7/1,500 nM Adr was 61- and 274-fold resistant to Adr, three and 12-fold to Doc, respectively. Meantime, they also showed cross-resistance to the other anticancer drugs in different degrees. Compared to MCF-7/S, RT-qPCR and Western blot results revealed that the expression of MDR1, MRP1, BCRP, Tubb3 and Bcl-2 were elevated in both MCF-7/Doc and MCF-7/Adr, and TopoIIα, Bax were down-regulated in both the sublines, while CYP3A4, GST pi were increased only in MCF-7/Doc and MCF-7/Adr respectively. Furthermore, the changes above were dose-dependent. The established MCF-7/Doc or MCF-7/Adr has the typical MDR characteristics, which can be used as the models for resistance mechanism study. The acquired process of MCF-7/S resistance to Doc or Adr is gradual, and is complicated with the various pathways involved in. There are some common resistant mechanisms as well as own drug-specific changes between both the sublines. 相似文献

A novel curcumin mimic library (14a-14h and 15a-15h) possessing variously substituted benzimidazole groups was synthesized through the aldol reaction of (E)-4-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)but-3-en-2-one (7) or (E)-4-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)but-3-en-2-one (13) with diversely substituted benzimidazolyl-2-carbaldehyde (12a-12h). The MTT assay of the cancer cells MCF-7, SH-SY5Y, HEP-G2, and H460 showed that compound 14c with IC(50) of 1.0 and 1.9μM has a strong inhibitory effect on the growth of SH-SY5Y and Hep-G2 cells, respectively, and that compound 15h with IC(50) of 1.9μM has a strong inhibitory effect on the growth of MCF-7 cancer cells. 相似文献

Published data supports the neuroprotective effects of several phenolic-containing natural products, including certain fruit, berries, spices, nuts, green tea, and olive oil. However, limited data are available for phenolic-containing plant-derived natural sweeteners including maple syrup. Herein, we investigated the neuroprotective effects of a chemically standardized phenolic-enriched maple syrup extract (MSX) using a combination of biophysical, in vitro, and in vivo studies. Based on biophysical data (Thioflavin T assay, transmission electron microscopy, circular dichroism, dynamic light scattering, and zeta potential), MSX reduced amyloid β 1?42 peptide (Aβ 1?42) fibrillation in a concentration-dependent manner (50–500 μg/mL) with similar effects as the neuroprotective polyphenol, resveratrol, at its highest test concentration (63.5?% at 500 μg/mL vs. 77.3?% at 50 μg/mL, respectively). MSX (100 μg/mL) decreased H 2O 2-induced oxidative stress (16.1?% decrease in ROS levels compared to control), and down-regulated the production of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated inflammatory markers (22.1, 19.9, 74.8, and 87.6?% decrease in NOS, IL-6, PGE 2, and TNFα levels, respectively, compared to control) in murine BV-2 microglial cells. Moreover, in a non-contact co-culture cell model, differentiated human SH-SY5Y neuronal cells were exposed to conditioned media from BV-2 cells treated with MSX (100 μg/mL) and LPS or LPS alone. MSX-BV-2 media increased SH-SY5Y cell viability by 13.8?% compared to media collected from LPS-BV-2 treated cells. Also, MSX (10 μg/mL) showed protective effects against Aβ 1?42 induced neurotoxicity and paralysis in Caenorhabditis elegans in vivo. These data support the potential neuroprotective effects of MSX warranting further studies on this natural product. 相似文献

FK1706 is a novel non-immunosuppressive immunophilin ligand with neurotrophic activity and exerts its neurotrophic effect through NGF. The present study aimed to elaborate on the neurotrophic activity and the mechanism of action of FK1706 in end-to-side neurorrhaphy rats and SH-SY5Y cells. In the regenerating nerves of neurorrhaphy rats, FK1706 increased the thickness of myelin sheath and the level of nerve regeneration-related proteins. The mechanism of action of FK1706 on neurite regrowth was elucidated in vitro by incubating SH-SY5Y cells in different conditions (Control, NGF, FK1706, NGF?+?FK1706, NGF?+?FK1706?+?geldanamycin). Under the conditions where NGF was used, the phosphorylation level of major proteins (Raf-1 and ERK) in the Ras/Raf/MAPK/ERK signaling pathway related to SH-SY5Y cell proliferation was significantly enhanced following the application of FK1706. The number of viable cells, cell viability and neurite length of SH-SY5Y cells was maximal when NGF and FK1706 were used simultaneously. The binding level of HSP90 and Raf-1 in FK1706 group was the highest. These results indicated that FK1706 could significantly promote nerve regeneration after neurorrhaphy. The putative mechanism of action stated that FK1706 could promote the binding of HSP90 and Raf-1, make Raf-1 continue to be activated, thereby affecting key proteins in the Ras/Raf/MAPK/ERK signaling pathway related to the neurotrophic effects of NGF to promote the proliferation and neurite regrowth of nerve cells. 相似文献

Anti-convulsant effects of physical exercise and lipoic acid (LA), also referred to as thioctic acid with antioxidant activity, were investigated using chemical induced seizure model. We investigated the synergic effect of physical exercise and LA on kainic acid-induced seizure activity caused by oxidative stress. After 8 weeks of swimming training, body weight decreased and endurance capacity increased significantly compared to sedentary mice. Kainic acid (30 mg/kg, i.p.) evoked seizure activity 5 min after injection, and seizure activity peaked approximately 80 min after kainic acid treatment. Median seizure activity score in KA only treated group was 4.55 (range 0.5–5), 3.45 for “LA + KA” group (range 0.5–4.3), 3.12 for “EX + KA” group (range 0.05–3.4, p < 0.05 vs. “KA only” group), 2.13 for “EX + LA + KA” group (range 0.5–3.0, p < 0.05 vs. “EX + KA” group). Also, there was a synergic cooperation of exercise and LA in lowering the mortality in kainic acid treated mice (χ 2 = 5.45, p = 0.031; “EX + KA” group vs. “LA + EX + KA” group). In addition, the synergic effect of exercise and LA was found in PGx activity compared to separated treatment (“LA + EX + KA”: 37.3 ± 1.36; p < 0.05 vs. “LA + KA” and “EX + KA” group). These results indicate that physical exercise along with LA could be a more efficient method for modulating seizure activity and oxidative stress. 相似文献

Ten novel artemisinin derivatives containing fluorine atoms were synthesized and their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS technologies in this study. The in vitro cytotoxicity against U87MG, SH-SY5Y, MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, A549 and A375 cancer cell lines was evaluated by MTT assay. Compound 9j was the most potent anti-proliferative agent against the human breast cancer MCF-7 cells (IC 50?=?2.1?μM). The mechanism of action of compound 9j was further investigated by analysis of cell apoptosis and cell cycle. Compound 9j induced cell apoptosis and arrested cell cycle at G1 phase in MCF-7 cells. Our promising findings indicated that the compound 9j could stand as potential lead compound for further investigation. 相似文献
