Radiosensitivity of drug-resistant L1210 leukemia.
نویسنده
چکیده
The radiation response of murine L1210 leukemia was exam ined. Radiation dose-survival curves demonstrated that nondividing (resting) leukemic cells and logarithmically proliferating leukemic cells were equally radiosensitive. A radiosensitive state was also demonstrated for 2 drug-altered leukemia cell lines, 1 strain being markedly resistant to antimetabolite therapy and the other having a decreased growth rate following exposure to an alkylating agent. These studies indicate that cross-resistance does not exist in this experimental system under conditions where drug resistance is present.

Potential role of transforming growth factor 1 in drug resis- tance of tumor cells
Acquired drug resistance of tumor cells is frequently observed in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. We studied murine leukemia L1210 cells sensitive and resistant to the cytotoxic action of cisplatin and showed that cisplatin-resistant leukemia cells were also refractory to TGF 1-dependent growth inhibition and apoptosis. Addressing the question about the mechanisms responsible for the c...

متن کاملSome determinants of camptothecin responsiveness in leukemia L1210 cells.
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...

D-resistant sublime of mouse leukemia L1210 has been described (3). In view of its biologic stability and other characteristics, it was of interest to inquire into reasons for the failure of this subline to respond to this agent. The present experiments were designed to affirm or eliminate one possible mechanism of resistance (cf. Ref. 4), i.e., reduced uptake of Miracil D by the resistant cell...
متن کاملResponse of drug-sensitive and -resistant L1210 leukemias to high-dose chemotherapy.
Alkylating agent-sensitive and -resistant L1210 leukemia cell lines were used to determine the tumor response to dose levels of drugs that exceeded conventional doses up to a factor of 10. Since those dose levels were lethal to the host mice, tumor response was based on the results of in vivo bioassays of spleen and/or tumor from drug-treated and control mice. When mice bearing about 10(8) drug...
