Differential response of human healthy lymphoblastoid and CCRF-SB leukemia cells to sulforaphane and its two analogues: 2-oxohexyl isothiocyanate and alyssin.
Journal Title: Pharmacological Reports - Year 2007, Vol 59, Issue 1
Abstract
The chemopreventive effect of sulforaphane and two of its analogues on human B-lymphocytes derived cells was evaluated in this study. Two cell lines used in the experiments were: human lymphoblastoid cells and human B-leukemia CCRF-SB. Both cell lines were treated with three structurally related isothiocyanates: sulforaphane, 2-oxohexyl isothiocyanate and alyssin. The viability of cells, induction of a phase II enzyme-quinone reductase, apoptosis induction, GSH content and ROS formation were evaluated. The results indicate the differences between the chemopreventive properties and apoptosis-inducing activity of three isothiocyanates. The significant differences in response to these compounds were observed between healthy lymphoblastoid and leukemia CCRF-SB cells.

7-Nitroindazole enhances dose-dependently the anticonvulsant activities of conventional antiepileptic drugs in the mouse maximal electroshock-induced seizure model.
7-Nitroindazole (7NI, a nitric oxide synthase [NOS] inhibitor) administered intraperitoneally (ip), 30 min before the test, at doses ranging between 50-200 mg/kg, raised the threshold for electroconvulsions in mice. Line...

Activity of essential phospholipids (EPL) from soybean in liver diseases.
Essential phospholipids (EPL) contain a highly purified extract of polyenylphosphatidylcholine (PPC) molecules from soybean. The main active ingredient is 1,2-dilinoleoylphosphatidylcholine (DLPC), which differentiates i...
Effects of new antiepileptic drugs and progabide on the mitogen-induced proliferative activity of mouse splenocytes.
Classical antiepileptic drugs are known to affect immune system activity, although the effects of new generation anticonvulsants on T- and B-cell-mediated immunity remain unknown. Therefore, in the present study, we comp...
