Cytofluorescence localization of adriamycin and daunorubicin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The characteristic orange-red fluorescence of adriamycin or daunorubicin is easily detectable in tissues of drug-treated hamsters when examined by fluorescence microscopy. Fluores cence was seen intracellularly as early as 0.5 min postinjection. Drug fluorescence was localized primarily in nuclei although some cytoplasmic drug fluorescence was detected in liver and kidney cells. No difference between adriamycin and daunoru bicin was observed with this technique.

Cytofluorescence localization of anthracycline antibiotics.
Previous fluorescence microscopic studies have shown daunorubicin (DNR) and Adriamycin (ADR) are localized in cell nuclei, whereas trifluoroacetyladriamycin-14-valerate is local ized in the cytoplasm. Using cultured cells, we correlated structural characteristics of a series of anthracycline antibiotics with cellular disposition and metabolic response. When ob served under fluorescence microsco...
متن کاملA differential interaction of daunomycin, adriamycin, and N-trifluoroacetyladriamycin 14-valerate with mouse peritoneal macrophages.
The interaction of three anthracycline drugs, daunomycin, Adriamycin, and N-trifluoroacetyladriamycin 14-valerate, with mouse peritoneal macrophages was explored. As assessed by drug-specific cytofluorescence, Adriamycin and daunomycin accumulated slowly within macrophages, first staining the nucleus and then the cytoplasmic inclusions that were induced by the drug treatment. N-Trifluoroacetyla...
متن کاملDifferences in cellular uptake and cytofluorescence of adriamycin and N-trifluoroacetyladriamycin-14-valerate.
Adriamycin-specific fluorescence appears slowly in living cells and is localized in nuclei and chromosomes. N-Trifluoroacetyladriamycin-14-valerate, a recently synthesized adriamycin analog, differs from the parent anthracycline in the rapid appearance of its fluorescence in the cytoplasm of living cells and the lack of any fluorescent binding to nuclei and chromosomes.
متن کاملComparative mammalian metabolism of adriamycin and daunorubicin.
Both Adriamycin and daunorubicin undergo carbonyl reduction and glycosidic cleavage. We have investigated kinetic parameters of these reactions with several mam malian species including humans. Adriamycin and daunorubicin showed similar K values for reduction in all organs studied except those from rabbits. Both rabbit liver and kidney have a much lower K for Adriamycin reduction. In contrast t...
متن کاملClinical evaluation of adriamycin, a new antitumour antibiotic.
Adriamycin, a new antitumour antibiotic of the anthracycline group with a structural formula very similar to daunorubicin, has proved to have potent tumour-growth-inhibiting properties, and to be particularly effective in childhood malignancies. Though adriamycin produces a higher percentage of side-effects than daunorubicin-namely, stomatitis and alopecia-a lower dosage may be used for therapy.
