The effects of PGA2 on cell cycle progression in oesophageal carcinoma cells
(University of the Western Cape, 2003)The molecular mechanisms causing anti-mitotic and cytotoxic effects of prostaglandin .A2 [PGA2 (CzoHroOa)] treatment of human oesophageal carcinoma (WHCO3) cells were investigated. WHCO3 cells, incubated with cytotoxic ... -
Functional analysis of the mouse RBBP6 gene using Interference RNA
(University of the Western Cape, 2007)The aim of this thesis was to investigate the cellular role of the mouse RBBP6 gene using the interference RNA (RNAi) gene targeting technology and also to understand the relevance of two promoters for the RBBP6 gene. -
The in vitro effects of pure and street methamphetamine on the proliferation and cell cycle of mouse brain endothelial (bend5) cells
(2012)The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is an interface between the brain parenchyma and the circulating system. This barrier plays a vital role in protecting the CNS by restricting free paracellular diffusion of molecules from the ... -
The modulating effect of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on cancer cell survival in vitro
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) are geometrical and positional isomers of n-6 octadecadenoic acid (linoleic acid, LA, 18:2n-6), which form part of a family of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). There are 28 ...
