The influence of different expression of CYP3A4 izoenzymes on metabolic pathway derivatives in human hepatoma cells
PublicationCelem przeprowadzonych badań było określenie różnic w metabolizmie pochodnych C-857 i C-1748 w komórkach ludzkiego nowotworu wątroby HepG2 oraz określenie wpływu na ich biotransformację w podwyższonej ekspresji izoenzymu CYP3A4 w tejże linii. Uzyskane wyniki wskazały, że związek C-857, jak również C-1748 metabolizuje w komórkach HepG2 oraz Hep3A4 do wielu reaktywnych, niestabilnych metabolitów. Różnice w biotransformacji były bardzo...

Wavelet transform analysis to assess oscillations in pial artery pulsation at the human cardiac frequency
PublicationPial artery adjustments to changes in blood pressure (BP)may last only seconds in humans. Using a novelmethod called near-infrared transillumination backscattering sounding (NIR-T/BSS) that allows for the non-invasive measurement of pial artery pulsation (cc-TQ) in humans, we aimed to assess the relationship between spontaneous oscillations in BP and cc-TQ at frequencies between 0.5 Hz and 5 Hz. We hypothesized that analysis of...

Human UDP-Glucuronosyltransferases: Effects of altered expression in breast and pancreatic cancer cell lines.
PublicationIncreased aerobic glycolysis and de novo lipid biosynthesis are common characteristics of invasive cancers. UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are phase II drug metabolizing enzymes that in normal cells possess the ability to glucuronidate these lipids and speed their excretion; however, de-regulation of these enzymes in cancer cells can lead to an accumulation of bioactive lipids, which further fuels cancer progression. We hypothesize...

Immunophenotyping and transcriptional profiling of in vitro cultured human adipose tissue derived stem cells
PublicationAdipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have become an important research model in regenerative medicine. However, there are controversies regarding the impact of prolonged cell culture on the ASCs phenotype and their differentiation potential. Hence, we studied 10 clinical ASCs replicates from plastic and oncological surgery patients, in six-passage FBS supplemented cultures. We quantified basic mesenchymal cell surface marker transcripts...

Design, synthesis and high antitumor potential of new unsymmetrical bisacridine derivatives towards human solid tumors, specifically pancreatic cancers and their unique ability to stabilize DNA G-quadruplexes
PublicationNew promising unsymmetrical bisacridine derivatives (UAs), have been developed. Three groupsincluding 36 compounds were synthesized by the condensation of 4-nitro or 4-methylacridinone, imi-dazoacridinone and triazoloacridinone derivatives with 1-nitroacridine compounds linked with anaminoalkyl chain. Cytotoxicity screening revealed the high potency of these compounds against severaltumor cell lines. Particularly, imidazoacridinone-1-nitroacridine...

PARP inhibition potentiates the cytotoxic activity of C-1305, a selective inhibitor of topoisomerase II, in human BRCA1-positive breast cancer cells
PublicationTwo cellular proteins encoded by the breast and ovarian cancer type 1 susceptibility (BRCA1 and BRCA2) tumor suppressor genes are essential for DNA integrity and the maintenance of genomic stability.Approximately 5-10% of breast and ovarian cancers result from inherited alterations or mutations in these genes.Remarkably, BRCA1/BRCA2-deficient cells are hypersensitive to selective inhibition of poly(ADPribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1),...

A new dilution-enrichment sample preparation strategy for expanded metabolome monitoring of human breast milk that overcomes the simultaneous presence of low- and high-abundance lipid species
PublicationThe complex nature of human breast milk (HBM) makes samples difficult to analyze, requiring several extraction techniques and analytical platforms to obtain high metabolome coverage. In this work, we combined liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) and solid-phase extraction (SPE) techniques to prepare HBM samples to overcome the challenge of low- and high-abundance lipid species, enabling the semiquantitative analysis of total HBM lipids...

The Effect of Marginal Zn2+ Excess Released from Titanium Coating on Differentiation of Human Osteoblastic Cells
PublicationComposite coatings based on chitosan and zinc nanoparticles (ZnNPs) were successfully produced on Ti13Zr13Nb substrates by cathodic electrophoretic deposition (EPD). The unfavorable phenomenon of water electrolysis-induced nonuniformity was reduced by applying a low voltage (20 V) and a short deposition time (1 min). Surface analysis (roughness and hydrophilicity) reveals the potential of these coatings for enhancing cell attachment...

ABC transporters Cdr1p, Cdr2p and Cdr3p of a human pathogen Candida albicans are general phospholipid translocators
PublicationFluoryzujące analogi fosfolipidów NBD-PE, NBD-PC i NBD-PS zostały wykorzystane w celu wykazania, że białko Cdr1p i jego inne homologi, Cdr2p i Cdr3p, należące do grupy białek zawierających tzw. kasetę wiążącą ATP (ABC), zachowują się jak ogólne przenośniki lipidów. Wyniki badań pokazują, że transportery typu ABC występujące w C. albicans są przenośnikami fosfolipidów i aktywność ta może być jedna z fizjologicznych funkcji białek.

Derivatives of 1-nitroacridine induce apoptosis only in a limited number of human colon adenocarcinoma cells
PublicationPraca dotyczy indukcji apoptozy w komórkach ludzkich raków okrężnicy HT29 i HCT8 pod wpływem pochodnych 1-nitroakrydyny: C-857 i C-1748. Wykazano, że związki te w stężeniach biologicznie istotnych (EC90) indukują apoptozę tylko w części populacji komórek. Efekt ten uzależniony był od czasu inkubacji komórek ze związkiem, a nie zależał od stężenia związku.
