OBJECTIVE
Bruceantin has been shown to induce cell differentiation in a number of leukemia and lymphoma cell lines. It also down-regulated c-MYC, suggesting a correlation of down-regulation with induction of cell differentiation or cell death. In the present study, we focused on multiple myeloma,
Bruceantin was first isolated from Brucea antidysenterica, a tree used in Ethiopia for the treatment of cancer, and activity was observed against B16 melanoma, colon 38, and L1210 and P388 leukemia in mice. Phase I and II clinical trials were then initiated, but no objective tumor regressions were
BACKGROUND
The process of translation occurs at a nexus point downstream of a number of signal pathways and developmental processes. Modeling activation of the PTEN/AKT/mTOR pathway in the Emu-Myc mouse is a valuable tool to study tumor genotype/chemosensitivity relationships in vivo. In this model,
