Clinical and experimental data suggest that erythrocyte (RBC) polyamine (PA) levels are markers of tumor proliferation during total parenteral nutrition (TPN). The purpose of this experiment was to determine whether the inhibition of PA synthesis during TPN was greater in tumors than in normal host
This study examines the effects of a combined modality regimen of long duration-low temperature whole body hyperthermia (6 h at 40.0 degrees C; LL-WBH), recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) and carboplatin (CBDCA) on a transplantable fibrosarcoma as well as normal tissue. We compare
A syndrome of acquired immunodeficiency has been identified in a group of rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) which died at the California Primate Research Center. Clinical evaluation of these animals revealed that 50% or more had lymphadenopathy, weight loss, and diarrhea. At least 30% had
Ovarian cancer (OC) is ranked as the eighth most common gynecological malignancy and is the leading cause of gynecological cancer-related deaths in women worldwide. The response to platinum- and taxane-based chemotherapy is very often poor, and targeted-therapeutics are currently being tested in
We studied: (a) the adverse effects of tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) given during whole body hyperthermia (WBH) on mean arterial pressure (MAP) and gut mucosa in anaesthetized rats; (b) the potential protective effect of NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMA), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase;
OBJECTIVE
Irinotecan is a novel antineoplastic agent that works by inhibiting the enzyme, topoisomerase 1. Although not extensively studied in children, preclinical studies and several phase I trials indicate activity against a variety of relapsed solid tumors when administered on a protracted
BACKGROUND
Rat sarcoma (RAS)/rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma (RAF)/mitogen-activated protein kinase activation (mutational or nonmutational) is a key pathway for survival and proliferative advantage of leukemic cells. Salirasib (Concordia Pharmaceuticals) is an oral RAS inhibitor that causes
Twenty previously treated patients with advanced bone sarcomas received thrice weekly im 50 X 10(6) IU/m2 doses of human alfa-interferon (interferon alfa-2a, recombinant; Roche). Seventeen patients had metastatic osteosarcomas and one each had fibrosarcoma, mesenchymal chondrosarcoma, and malignant
A syndrome of acquired immunodeficiency within a group of outdoor-housed rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) with unusually high mortality has been identified at the California Primate Research Center. The cause of death for most of the affected animals included septicemia and/or chronic diarrhea with
