9-Nitrocamptothecin liposome aerosol treatment of melanoma and osteosarcoma lung metastases in mice.
The response rates of relapsed osteosarcoma and melanoma pulmonary metastases to traditional i.v. chemotherapeutic regimens have been disappointing. Direct drug delivery of chemotherapy to the lungs could increase the drug concentration in the tumor area and may offer a new therapeutic approach for these patients. Previous studies demonstrated that drugs delivered to the respiratory tract in li...
متن کاملIL-12 plasmid delivery by in vivo electroporation for the successful treatment of established subcutaneous B16.F10 melanoma.
Interleukin-12 (IL-12) has been used in numerous immunotherapy protocols against melanoma. However, delivery of IL-12 in the form of recombinant protein can result in severe toxicity, and gene therapy has had limited success against B16.F10 murine melanoma. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of in vivo electroporation for the delivery of plasmid DNA encoding IL-12 as an ...
متن کاملCombination of vasostatin gene therapy with cyclophosphamide inhibits growth of B16(F10) melanoma tumours.
Angiogenesis, i.e. formation of new blood vessels out of pre-existing capillaries, is essential to the development of tumour vasculature. The discovery of specific antiangiogenic inhibitors has important therapeutic implications for the development of novel cancer treatments. Vasostatin, the N-terminal domain of calreticulin, is a potent endogenous inhibitor of angiogenesis and tumour growth. I...
متن کاملPrenyl Ammonium Salts – New Carriers for Gene Delivery: A B16-F10 Mouse Melanoma Model
PURPOSE Prenyl ammonium iodides (Amino-Prenols, APs), semi-synthetic polyprenol derivatives were studied as prospective novel gene transfer agents. METHODS AP-7, -8, -11 and -15 (aminoprenols composed of 7, 8, 11 or 15 isoprene units, respectively) were examined for their capacity to form complexes with pDNA, for cytotoxicity and ability to transfect genes to cells. RESULTS All the carriers...
متن کاملPaullinia cupana Mart var. sorbilis, guaraná, reduces cell proliferation and increases apoptosis of B16/F10 melanoma lung metastases in mice.
We showed that guaraná (Paullinia cupana Mart var. sorbilis) had a chemopreventive effect on mouse hepatocarcinogenesis and reduced diethylnitrosamine-induced DNA damage. In the present experiment, we evaluated the effects of guaraná in an experimental metastasis model. Cultured B16/F10 melanoma cells (5 x 10(5) cells/animal) were injected into the tail vein of mice on the 7th day of guaraná tr...
