Cancer cachexia is characterized by wasting of the lean tissue and profound changes in the body composition of the tumour host. These changes are partly explained by an inefficient energy production but other factors may also be important, such as deficiency of essential nutritional components. In
Human kidney cells in culture and cells of mouse sarcoma-180 were allowed to incorporate bromine into their DNA. Cultured cells with and without incorporated BUdR were irradiated with electromagnetic radiations ranging in energy from 12 keV X-rays to 60Co gamma-rays to find out whether or not there
The conceptual basis for the development of mitochondrial targeting as a novel therapeutic strategy for both chemotherapy and photochemotherapy of neoplastic diseases rests on the observation that enhanced mitochondrial membrane potential is a common tumor cell phenotype. The potential of this
2,4-Diamino-6-hydroxypyrimidines substituted in position 5 by an allyl, benzyl, cyanomethyl, ethoxycarbonylmethyl, phenyl, cyclopropyl, or methyl group were prepared either by C5-alkylation or by formation of the pyrimidine ring by cyclization. Their alkylation with
A series of halogen analogs of phosphoramide mustard, isophosphoramide mustard, and triphosphoramide mustard, the cytotoxic metabolites of the antitumor drugs cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide, and trofosfamide, respectively, was evaluated in vitro against human tumor cell lines and in vivo against
