The aromatic N-heterocyclic 7H-dibenzo(c,g)carbazole (DBC), like polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, is a potent inducer of local sarcomas, papillomas, and respiratory tumors, but unlike such compounds it also induces hepatomas. The N-methyl derivative of DBC, N-methyl-dibenzo(c,g)carbazole (MeDBC),
The potent multitissue carcinogen 7H-dibenzo[c,g]carbazole and nine methylated derivatives, synthesized on the basis of the positions in the parent compound that are involved in metabolism, were tested for their ability to induce sarcomas and hepatic tumors in XVIInc/Z mice. In addition, the
7H-Dibenzo[c,g]carbazole (DBC) has carcinogenic effects on mouse subcutaneous fibroblasts and liver; the N-methyl derivative (N-MeDBC) induces only sarcomas; 3-methyl- and 5,9-dimethyldibenzo[c,g]carbazole (3-MeDBC and 5,9-DMeDBC) are specific, potent hepatocarcinogens in mice. The mutagenicity in
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) follows a different clinical course in Mediterranean and immunodeficiency related cases and has a poorer prognosis in the latter. We investigated 40 patients with Mediterranean and eight with immunodeficiency related KS by histomorphology and immunohistology in comparision to
Thirteen 5,11-dimethyl-6H-pyrido[3,2-b]carbazoles, structurally related to the antitumour drug ellipticine, were tested for their cytotoxicity against the L1210 murine leukaemia cell line and their antitumour activity against both leukaemias and solid tumours. Most of them showed an interesting
As part of a series of studies to discover new topoisomerase II inhibitors, novel pyrimidoacridones, pyrimidophenoxadines, and pyrimidocarbazoles were synthesized, and in vitro and in vivo antitumor activities and DNA-protein and/or DNA-topoisomerase II cross-linking activity as an indicator of
The binding modes and binding constants for the complexes of forty types of pyridocarbazole derivatives 1-40 with double stranded DNAs (dsDNAs) were reported. The binding modes were determined by a combination of a deflection spectroscopy and orientation of the corresponding molecule in the
Preliminary screening of the antitumor properties of selected azacarbazoles revealed that of all the compounds tested only 2,7-diazacarbazole (compound IX) and 3,6-diazacarbazole (compound XI) caused the inhibition of Sarcoma 180 growth up to 70%. beta- and gamma-Carbolines and their derivatives in
