Spaces and places in Zakes Mda : two novesl
… is a ubiquitous concern in the novels of Zakes Mda. It is surely not by chance that Mda's interest in the novelistic form, which materialised in the publication of Ways of Dying in 1995, was roughly coincident with South Africa's fledgling democracy a year earlier. The end of apartheid meant the …

Electrical stimulation effects on cell cycle and autophagy markers in MCF7 and MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells
… and MCF7 breast cancer cells. EPS of MCF7 and MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells revealed alterations in cellular signaling that suggest cell cycle arrest by autophagy. An Akt inhibitor was used to identify the role of Akt in the EPS response on breast cancer cells. This adds to a working model of …

URSOLIC ACID INHIBITED PROLIFERATION AND INVASION OF MDA-MB-231 HUMAN BREAST CANCER CELLS VIA REGULATING CELLULAR SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION PATHWAYS
… that UA inhibits proliferation and invasion of MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells via regulating cellular signal transduction pathways. Specific objectives are designed as: a) to investigate anti-proliferation and anti-invasion effects of UA in MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells; b) To …

The regulation of LIV-1 mRNA in MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells and its association with E-cadherin (CDH1)
… of LIV-1 and its relationship to CDH1 in MDA-MB-231 ER<sup>-</sup> breast cancer cells. Cells were treated with insulin and EGF for 24 hours and the mRNA concentrations of LIV-1 and CDH1 were analyzed by RT-PCR. EGF treatment induced LIV-1 mRNA by about 2-fold whereas insulin had minor …

The Effects Of Curcumin On The Expression Of P53 And Bcl-2 Oncoproteins On The Human Breast Carcinoma Cell Line MDA-MB 468
… curcumin on the proliferation and viability of MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells and its effects on the expression ofBcl-2 and p53 proteins in these cells. Based on previous studies, we predicted a dose-dependent increase in p53 (tumor suppressor) expression, and a decrease in Bcl-2 (anti-apoptotic …
