Article Synopsis
- Cyclophosphamide (CP) is an effective anticancer drug but can cause severe toxicity to the liver and other organs, limiting its use.
- This study aims to investigate the protective effects of selenium (Se) and boron (B) against liver damage caused by CP in experimental rats, comparing their efficacy.
- Results show that both Se and B can reverse the harmful effects of CP on liver health, with Se providing slightly better protection compared to B.

Targeting lung cancer stem cells (LC-SCs) for metastasis may be an effective strategy against lung cancer. This study is the first on epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) properties of boric acid (BA) in LC-SCs. LC-SCs were isolated using the magnetic cell sorting (MACS) method.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAstaxanthin (ASX) is one of the keto-carotenoids, which is biologically more active than other counterparts. Besides its variety of beneficial effects, it was reported to exert anticancer effects. Despite its utilization against different cancer types, the effect of ASX on mesothelioma has yet to be well-studied.
