Cultured normal and Rous sarcoma virus-infected chicken fibroblasts do not differ in the concentrations of thymidine or of hypoxanthine that they require to proliferate in the presence of a methotrexate block. For maximal proliferation, thymidine is required at 10(-6) M, while hypoxanthine is
In various tumors, the hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and the epidermal growth factor-receptor (EGFR) have an impact on survival. Nevertheless, the prognostic impact of both markers for soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is not well studied. We examined 114 frozen tumor samples from adult
Adenosine phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.-) activity present in Sarcoma 180 cells grown in culture and in rat liver, is shown to be distinct from inosine-guanosine phosphorylase by several criteria: (a) treatment of Sarcoma 180 cell extract with p-chloromercuribenzoate inhibited the two activities to a
The effects of the chiral isomers of erythro- and threo-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenines (EHNA and THNA) on purine metabolism in Sarcoma 180 cells have been determined. At concentrations of 10-80 microM [10- to 1000-fold greater than their Ki values with adenosine deaminase (ADA)], all isomers
The growth-inhibitory effect of 6-methylmercaptopurine riboside (MMPR) against leukemia L1210 cells in culture was dramatically potentiated by the addition of guanine nucleosides to the medium. In the presence of either deoxyguanosine or guanosine, the concentration of MMPR that caused 50%
The combined effect of methotrexate (MTX) with dipyridamole, an inhibitor of nucleoside transport, was studied in ascitic Sarcoma 180 cells. It was determined that 10 microM MTX inhibits by greater than 90% deoxy[3H]uridine incorporation into DNA and that this MTX concentration inhibits DNA
The Harvey murine sarcoma virus has been cloned and induces focus formation on NIH 3T3 cells. Recombinants of this virus have been constructed which include the thymidine kinase gene of herpes simplex virus type 1 in a downstream linkage with the p21 ras gene of Harvey murine sarcoma virus. Harvey
In this study we show that recombinant adenovirus can augment hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) levels in the central nervous system (CNS) of HPRT-deficient mice. Recombinant adenovirus containing the cDNA for rat HPRT (rHPRT) expressed from the Rous sarcoma virus LTR (RSV LTR)
We used the mouse mammary tumor virus long terminal repeat to promote dexamethasone-regulated expression of the Moloney murine sarcoma virus (M-MSV) transforming gene, v-mos. A recombinant DNA vector containing the mouse mammary tumor virus long terminal repeat fused to the M-MSV 124 v-mos gene was
Mouse cells transformed by murine sarcoma virus were made resistant to 8-azaguanine. Resistant cells and cell clones isolated from them were deficient in hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT) activity. They did not grow in HATG medium, did not incorporate labeled hypoxanthine, and
The link between exposure to environmental mutagens and the development of cancer is well established. Yet there is a paucity of data on the relationship between gene-environment interactions and the mechanisms associated with the somatic mutational events involved with malignant transformation,
Four C(2')-substituted 2'-deoxyadenosines were examined as substrates for human erythrocytic adenosine deaminase and for formation of intracellular nucleotide analogs in human erythrocytes, lymphocytes and murine Sarcoma 180 cells: 9-(2'-deoxy-2'-fluoro-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)adenine,
The 5'-deoxy-5'-iodo-substituted analogs of adenosine and inosine are cytotoxic to tumor cells that have high activities of 5'-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase and purine nucleoside phosphorylase, respectively (Savarese, T.M., Chu, S-H., Chu, M.Y., and Parks, R. E., Jr. (1984) Biochem. Pharmacol.
The lipophilic diaminopyridopyrimidine BW 301U (2,4-diamino-6-(2,5-dimethoxybenzyl)-5-methylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine) is as active as methotrexate as an inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase and mammalian cell growth. This compound was selected from among related pyridopyrimidines and other
The mechanism of antitumor action of oxanosine was studied using a strain of rat kidney cells infected with a mutant Rous sarcoma virus, the src gene of which was temperature sensitive. Oxanosine inhibited cell growth in vitro, as well as nucleic acid synthesis in these cells, 10 times more strongly
