Effects of methotrexate and cytosine arabinoside on polyamine metabolism in a mouse L1210 leukemia.
The effects of methotrexate and cytosine arabinoside on polyamine metabolism were studied in a rapidly proliferating leukemic tumor (LI210) in C57BL/6 X DBA/2 (hereafter called BDP!) mice. Methotrexate, the most effective antileukemic drug in terms of increasing the median survival time also was the most effective, both in inhibiting the enzymes in the polyamine biosynthetic pathway and in decr...
متن کاملRelative abilities of bis(ethyl) derivatives of putrescine, spermidine, and spermine to regulate polyamine biosynthesis and inhibit L1210 leukemia cell growth.
It has been shown previously (Porter et al., Cancer Res., 45: 2050-2057, 1985) that the N1,N8-bis(ethyl) derivative of spermidine has significant antiproliferative activity which appears to derive from its regulatory effects on the polyamine biosynthetic pathway, particularly on ornithine decarboxylase activity. In the present study, N1,N4-bis(ethyl)putrescine (BEP) and N1,N12-bis(ethyl)spermin...
متن کاملCurative effect of DL-2-difluoromethylornithine on mice bearing mutant L1210 leukemia cells deficient in polyamine uptake.
The objective of the present investigation was to determine to what extent polyamine uptake from the host contributes to the ability of tumor cells in overcoming the antiproliferative effect of a polyamine synthesis inhibitor. A mutant L1210 leukemia cell line deficient in polyamine transport was isolated by selection for resistance to methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone), an extremely cytotoxic ...
متن کاملDual effects of pyrazofurin and 3-deazauridine upon pyrimidine and purine biosynthesis in mouse L1210 leukemia.
Pyrazofurin (NSC 143095) as the monophosphate derivative is a potent inhibitor of orotidine 5'-monophosphate (OMP) decarboxylase of the pyrimidine pathway and has been proposed to inhibit 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribotide (AICAR) transformylase (EC 2.1.2.3) of the purine pathway (J. F. Worzalla, and M. J. Sweeney, Pyrazofurin inhibition of purine biosynthesis via 5-aminoimidazole-4-carbox...
متن کاملA selective effect of methylglyoxal-bis(guanylhydrazone) on the synthesis of mitochondrial DNA of cultured L1210 leukemia cells.
Methylglyoxal-bis(guanylhydrazone) (MGBG) is a polycationic drug which is useful in the chemotherapy of lymphoid and myeloid proliferative disorders. The drug has recently been shown to produce selective ultrastructural damage to the mitochondria of proliferating cell populations. It is important to understand the molecular basis for this action, since it may be related to the known ability of ...
