The antitumor efficacy of calcitriol: preclinical studies.
Studies in our laboratory demonstrate that vitamin D (1,25 dihydroxycholecalciferol or calcitriol) has significant antitumor activity in vitro and in vivo in murine and human squamous cell, prostate, lung, pancreatic and myeloma model systems. Calcitriol induces G0/G1 arrest, modulates p27 and p21, the cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) inhibitors implicated in G1 arrest, and induces cleavage of cas...
متن کاملPreclinical Antitumor Efficacy of the Polyamine Analogue
Certain N-abkylated analogues of the natural polyamine spermine have been found to disrupt pobyamine pool homeostasis and inhibit tumor cell growth. The most effective of these analogues, N’,N”-diethybnorspermine (DENSPM), apparently depletes intracellular pobyamine pools primarily by inducing the polyamine acetylating enzyme spermidine/ spermine N’-acetyltransferase, which contributes to polya...
متن کاملTesting disinfectants for efficacy.
Testing under laboratory conditions is undoubtedly useful in assessing the activity of disinfectants. However, such testing must be regarded as no more than a preliminary to field trials. This not only indicates the unreliability of laboratory tests, but also poses the wider problem of how any laboratory evaluation can be correlated with the field requirements. Many attempts have therefore been...

متن کاملSterically stabilized liposomes: improvements in pharmacokinetics and antitumor therapeutic efficacy.
The results obtained in this study establish that liposome formulations incorporating a synthetic polyethylene glycol-derivatized phospholipid have a pronounced effect on liposome tissue distribution and can produce a large increase in the pharmacological efficacy of encapsulated antitumor drugs. This effect is substantially greater than that observed previously with conventional liposomes and ...
