Purpose: In the following work, we investigated the effect of matcha green tea extract (MTE) on MCF-7 breast cancer cell viability and estrogen receptor-beta expression (ERβ).
Methods: MCF-7 cells were stimulated with MTE at concentrations of 5 and 10 µg/ml. Cell viability was assessed using a water-soluble tetrazolium assay (WST-1 assay) after an incubation time of 72 h.
Purpose: In the following work, we investigated the nuclear peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ)-dependent proliferation behavior of breast cancer cells after stimulation with matcha green tea extract (MTE).
Methods: T47D cells were stimulated with MTE at concentrations of 5, 10 and 50 µg/ml. Cell viability was assessed using a WST-1 assay after an incubation time of 72 h.
Article Synopsis
- The study examined kidney transplant outcomes from donors aged 65 and older to evaluate the impact of surgeon assessments of donor arteriosclerosis on allograft function.
- Results indicated that while macroscopic donor arteriosclerosis affected kidney function at various time points post-transplant, it did not influence graft survival or mortality rates.
- The findings highlight the need for larger studies and standardized evaluation methods to better understand the role of surgeon evaluations in kidney transplants.
