Triazoloacridone C-1305 abrogates the restriction checkpoint in cells lacking functional p53 and promotes their accumulation in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle
PublicationTriazoloakrydon C-1305, nowy inhibitor topoizomerazy II, wykazuje wysoką aktywość cytotoksyczną wobec komórek wielu typów nowotworów. Komórki mysie pozbawione genu PARP-1 wykazywały nadwrażliwość na działanie tego związku. W pracy testowaliśmy działanie związku wobec dwóch różnych komóek nowotworowych różniących się statusem p53: komórkami białaczki myelocytarnej HL-60 i raka sutka MCF-7.

Dual inhibition of PI3K/Akt signaling and the DNA damage checkpoint in p53-deficient cells with strong survival signaling: implications for cancer therapy
PublicationOporność komórek nowotworowych na leki uszkadzjące DNA związana jest ściśle ze zdolnością do utrzymywania blok z fazie G2 cyklu komórkowego. Blok ten regulowany jest przez mechanizmy punktu kontrolnego G2/M oraz szlaki przeżycia komórkowego. W pracy badaliśmy rolę szlaku kinazy PI3K/Akt w funkcjonowaniu punktu kontrolnego cyklu komórkowego i wpływ na przeżycie komórek traktowanych lekiem przeciwnowotworowym - cisplatyną. Nasze...

Femtosecond laser ablated trench array for improving performance of commercial solid oxide cell
PublicationThe performance of electrode-supported solid oxide cells (SOCs) is limited adversely by gas diffusion impedance in thick and porous support. This work focuses on the improvement of gas transport properties of commercial Ni-YSZ anode-supported SOFC by femtosecond laser-based micromachining where micro-holes of identical depth but different hole separations pitches with minimal heated affected zones were imposed. The polarization...

Mutagenic and Carcinogenic Compounds in Food
PublicationFood is a major environmental human cancer risk factor. One of the reasons for this is that food products contain substances that exhibit mutagenic and carcinogenic potential which may induce the transformation of normal somatic cells into cancerous cells. These compounds occur in food as a result of microbial contaminations (mycotoxins produced by molds), are generated from natural food components upon processing (e.g. heterocyclic...

Corrosion Study of Ceria Protective Layer Deposited by Spray Pyrolysis on Steel Interconnects
PublicationSingle fuel cells and electrolysis cells are assembled into stacks using interconnects in order to increase power and gas production capacity. The most common choice for the interconnect material is stainless steel. It has good electrical and mechanical properties and is also cost effective. One of the problems when using steel is the formation of a thermally grown oxide scale during use which has a lower electrical conductivity...

PublicationCelem pracy było określenie roli wybranych enzymów frakcji mikrosomalnej komórek wątroby w metabolizmie pochodnej triazoloakrydonu, związku C-1305. Wykazano, że badana pochodna ulega transformacji wobec frakcji enzymów izolowanych z hepatocytów szczurzych i ludzkich oraz jest metabolizowana przez komórki linii HepG2. Badania wykazały ponadto, że enzymami odpowiedzialnymi za obserwowane przemiany były monooksygenazy flawinowe, FMO1...
