Serum anti-(GalNAcβ) and anti-para-Forssman disaccharide (PF(di), GalNAcβ1--3GalNAcβ) IgG levels were earlier found to be related to histological grading and progression of gastrointestinal cancer.
OBJECTIVE
To study the relation of serum antibodies level to survival in patients with
Inflammation is the clinical expression of chemical mediators such as the pro-inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF-)-alpha produced by macrophages and other cells activated in the immune response. Hence, agents that can inhibit TNF-alpha may be useful in treating arthritis and other
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is a proinflammatory cytokine playing a part in various pathological states. Non-toxic inhibitors of TNF-alpha release are thought to be promising agents for cancer prevention. We found that the acetone fraction of the tobacco leaf surface lipid containing
In a recent study, the well-documented tumor targeting properties of the antitumor agent bleomycin (BLM) were studied in cell culture using microbubbles that had been derivatized with multiple copies of BLM. It was shown that BLM selectively targeted MCF-7 human breast carcinoma cells but not the
On the basis of a structure-activity study of a new series of anthracycline disaccharides, we recently identified a doxorubicin analogue (MEN 10755) with a promising antitumor activity. In the present study, to better support the pharmacological interest of MEN 10755, we extended the preclinical
The doxorubicin analogue MEN-10755 has been identified as a compound with promising antitumour activity based on structure-activity studies of a new series of anthracycline disaccharides. The high antitumour activity of MEN-10755 in human tumour xenografts, including doxorubicin-resistant
We have shown previously that the bleomycin (BLM) carbohydrate moiety can recapitulate the tumor cell targeting effects of the entire BLM molecule, that BLM itself is modular in nature consisting of a DNA-cleaving aglycone which is delivered selectively to the interior of tumor cells by its
The bleomycins (BLMs) are a family of antitumor antibiotics used clinically for anticancer chemotherapy. Their antitumor selectivity derives at least in part from their ability to target tumor cells, a property that resides in the carbohydrate moiety of the antitumor agent. In earlier studies, we
Heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) is part of the cholera toxin (CT) family and consists of a catalytic A subunit and a B pentamer that serves to recognize the oligosaccharide part of the GM1 ganglioside receptor. We report here the crystal structure of heat-labile enterotoxin in complex with the
A new class of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) inhibitors based on disaccharide nucleosides was identified. TDP1 plays an essential role in the resistance of cancer cells to currently used antitumour drugs based on Top1 inhibitors such as topotecan and irinotecan. The most effective
Chondroitin sulfate (CS)-Keel disaccharide (CSD) was produced by chondroitin AC lyase (PsPL8A) degradation of food grade CS-Keel polysaccharide isolated from chicken keel cartilage. PsPL8A showed specific activity, 340 ± 5.2 U mg-1 with CS-Keel polysaccharide. TLC showed CSD as the major
OBJECTIVE
The binding of hematogenously borne malignant cells that express the carbohydrate sialyl Lewis X (sLe(X)) to selectin adhesion receptors on leukocytes, platelets, and endothelial cells facilitates metastasis. The glycosylation inhibitor, per-O-acetylated
Clustered presentation of sialyl Lewis X (sLe(X)) on tumor cell mucins is thought to facilitate metastasis through binding to selectin adhesion receptors expressed on platelets, leukocytes and endothelial cells. Thus, interfering with sLe(X) assembly might provide a chemotherapeutic method for
Isolation and characterization of new biologically active substances affecting cancer cells is an important issue of fundamental research in biomedicine. Trehalose lipid was isolated from Rhodococcus wratislaviensis strain and purified by liquid chromatography. The effect of
In order to further determine the nature of structure-activity relationship on the cytotoxicities of saponins with 1-->2 and 1-->3 linkages of disaccharides, we isolated guaianin N, collinsonidin, kalopanaxsaponin A and hederoside D(2) as disaccharides, and patrinia glycoside B-II as a
