Comparative studies of the cytostatic action and metabolism of 5-azacytidine and 5,6-dihydro-5-azacytidine.
5,6-Dihydro-5-azacytidine hydrochloride, a chemically stable, soluble analog of 5-azacytidine, has cytostatic activity against mouse leukemic L1210 cells grown in culture, but concentrations on the order of 10 micronM, 10-fold higher, than the parent drug, are necessary to inhibit cell growth. The addition of either cytidine or uridine protected against growth inhibition by 5-azacytidine and 5,...
متن کاملIn vitro neuronal induction of adipose-derived stem cells and their fate after transplantation into injured mouse brain.
The effect of substances known as inducers of neuronal differentiation on cultured human and mouse adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) and their fate after transplantation into the injured and ischemic mouse brains were studied. ASCs were isolated from the human and mouse adipose tissue. Inducers of neuronal differentiation included β-mercaptoethanol, glial cell line-derived neurotrop...
متن کاملAzacytidine Enhances Exogenous Gene Expression in Skeletal Muscle
DNA methylation is one of the mechanism for regulating gene expression. Transfected cells in tissue culture are a mosaic of expression of the exogenous gene. 5’ azacytidine (Aza C), inhibiting nuclear DNA methyltransferase, causes an increase of expression of E.coli a-galactosidase (LacZ) in transfected CHO cells. Murine muscle cell lines G8 and C2C12 were transfected by biolistic technique wit...
متن کاملSelection of strongly immunogenic "tum-" variants from tumors at high frequency using 5-azacytidine
Highly immunogenic "tum-" (non-tumorigenic in normal syngeneic hosts) clonal variants can be selected from a variety of poorly immunogenic and highly tumorigenic mouse cell lines at very high frequencies (e.g., greater than 80%) after treatment in vitro with chemical mutagens such as ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) or N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). We herein demonstrate that the same...
متن کاملThe effect of 5-azacytidine and its analogues on blast cell renewal in acute myeloblastic leukemia.
Blast cells from patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia were exposed to 5-azacytidine (5-aza) and its analogues 5-aza 2'-deoxycytidine (5-aza-dr) and 6-azacytidine (6-aza). Simple negative exponential survival curves were obtained for the three drugs, but the sensitivity varied; 5-aza-dr was most toxic, 6-aza was least toxic, and 5-aza was intermediate. Colonies surviving drug exposure were ...
