Some determinants of camptothecin responsiveness in leukemia L1210 cells.

چکیده

The antineoplastic alkaloid camptothecin inhibits nucleic acid synthesis in leukemia LI 210 cells; this inhibition is initially reversible, but becomes irreversible when exposure to the drug is prolonged. A drug-resistant subline, L1210/CN, can overcome camptothecin-induced inhibition of nucleic acid biosynthesis before this becomes irreversible. Unlike actinomycin D-resistant cell lines, L1210/CN was not characterized by a drug permeability barrier nor by altered levels of cell surface glycoprotein.

DNA topoisomerase I-mediated DNA cleavage and cytotoxicity of camptothecin analogues.

20(S)-Camptothecin, the 20(S)-camptothecin sodium salt, and 12 analogues with substituents on the A ring differ widely in their effectiveness in the treatment of murine L1210 lymphoblastic leukemia in vivo. The drugs were screened in the following systems: System 1, the cleavage of DNA in the presence of purified topoisomerase I; System 2, drug-induced trapping of topoisomerase I in a covalent ...

Diverse effects of camptothecin, an inhibitor of topoisomerase I, on the cell cycle of lymphocytic (L1210, MOLT-4) and myelogenous (HL-60, KG1) leukemic cells.

Exposure of mouse lymphocytic L1210 cells to 0.02-0.5 micrograms/ml of camptothecin (CAM) causes a slowdown in the rate of cell progression through S and G2 phases of the cell cycle; the "terminal" point of CAM action is about 1 h prior to mitosis. Some cells also enter higher DNA ploidy and progress through the cycle at that ploidy. CAM exerts similar effects (S- and G2-phase arrest, entrance ...

Cell-kill kinetics of several S-phase-specific drugs.

SUMMARY The drugs [1-ß-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine (ara-C), hy-droxyurea (HU), 5-hydroxy-2-formylpyridine thiosemicar-bazone (5-HP), and camptothecin sodium salt (camptothecin)] considered in this paper markedly inhibit DNA synthesis and are maximally cytotoxic to cells in S phase. In these studies, high-specific-activity thymidine-3H (HSA-TdR-3H) was used as a control compound which killed cel...

The effect of dose interval on the survival of L1210 leukemic mice treated with DNA synthesis inhibitors.

The survival of L1210 leukemic C57BL/6 X DBA2 F! mice has been studied as a function of the time interval between two i.p. doses of DNA synthesis inhibitors (1-0-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine, hydroxyurea, sodium camptothecin, and 5-hydroxy-2-formylpyridine thiosemicarbazone). In general, life-span increases that were observed with single doses of these agents (i.e., a time interval of zero) were ...
