Brief description of the research
- The molecular mechanisms of the influence of some OSC (organo selenium compounds) on the redox status of immortalized colon cancer cell lines HCT-116 and breast cancer MDA-MB-231 were investigated.
- The effects of OSC on the migratory potential of HCT-116 and MDA-MB-231 cells were tested using the Transwell migration test.
- The effects of OSC on the expression of mRNA target genes for seleno-enzymes in HCT-116 cells were determined, using the method of quantitative PCR.
- The effects of OSC on the activity of Nrf2, HIF, Nf-kB transcription factors and their interrelationships were investigated, using fluorescent methodology, transfection of pTRAF vector in single cell resolution and analysis by the Operreta system.
