The growth of supportive tissue during the progression of solid tumors is an absolute requirement for the nourishment of the tumor. The blockade of this proliferative response of normal tissues to the growing tumor should hence inhibit tumor progression. We have shown earlier, that the heparinoid
BACKGROUND
Pentosan polysulfate (Elmiron); (Alza Pharmaceuticals, Mountain View, CA) is the only Food and Drug Administration-approved oral therapy for interstitial cystitis (IC). Women with IC and breast cancer are often in the same age range; therefore, we hypothesize that pentosan polysulfate may
The mechanism by which DL-alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) inhibits angiogenesis is generally thought to involve the inhibition of the rate-limiting enzyme, ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), leading to polyamine depletion in cells and the ultimate cytostatic effect on proliferating endothelial
Progression of breast cancer from an estrogen-dependent, slowly growing tumor amenable to tamoxifen treatment to an aggressive, metastatic, estrogen-independent phenotype has been mimicked by the transfection of MCF-7 breast carcinoma cells with fibroblast growth factors 1 or 4. FGF-transfected
