Excessive alcohol consumption leads to liver disease. Extensive evidence suggests that C-phycocyanin(C-PC), a chromophore phycocyanobilin derived from Spirulina platensis, exerts protective eff ects against chemical-i...
Age related cataract is the leading cause of blindness associated with accumulation of oxidative stress in the eye lens.The present investigation reveals the rational of the beneficial effects of the natural compound ...
Influence of Hg(II) and Pb(II) ions on C-Phycocyanin (C-PC) from cyanobacteria Spirulina platensis was investigated using Fluorescence spectroscopy. Fluorescence measurements demonstrate quenching of C-PC emission by ...
The aim of this study was to investigate the pro-apoptotic mechanism of C-phycocyanin (C-PC)-mediated photody- namic therapy (PDT) in a murine tumor model and cul- tured MCF-7 cells. The mice were divided into fo...
