Tanshinone IIA reduces SW837 colorectal cancer cell viability via the promotion of mitochondrial fission by activating JNK-Mff signaling pathways.
doi:10.1186/s12860-018-0174-z ·PMID:30253740

BackgroundMitochondrial homeostasis has been increasingly viewed as a potential target of cancer therapy, and mitochondrial fission is a novel regulator of mitochondrial function and apoptosis. The aim of our study was to determine the deta…

In vitro three-dimensional modeling of fallopian tube secretory epithelial cells.
doi:10.1186/1471-2121-14-43 ·PMID:24070420

BackgroundFallopian tube secretory epithelial cells (FTSECs) have been implicated as a cell-of-origin for high-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer. However, there are relatively few in vitro models of this tissue type available for use i…

Musashi1 expression cells derived from mouse embryonic stem cells can be enriched in side population isolated by fluorescence activated cell sorter.
doi:10.1186/1471-2121-12-47 ·PMID:22026428

BackgroundPurifying stem cells is an inevitable process for further investigation and cell-therapy. Sorting side population (SP) cells is generally regarded as an effective method to enrich for progenitor cells. This study was to explore wh…
