  • Inhibition of tumor cell growth by monoterpenes in vitro : Evidence of a Ras-independent mechanism of action
  • 1996
  • Ingår i: Anti-Cancer Drugs. - : Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health). - 0959-4973 .- 1473-5741. ; 7:4, s. 422-429

    • (+)-Limonene (d-limonene) and related monoterpenes show chemopreventive activity against rodent mammary carcinoma and inhibit the growth of cancer cells in vitro, One suggested mechanism for the anti-tumorigenic effect of (+)-limonene is inhibition of the post-translational isoprenylation of growth controlling Pas oncoproteins. We have here examined the growth inhibitory effects of (+)-limonene and other related monoterpenes on PANC-1 pancreas carcinoma cells (carrying a K-ras mutation) and on 12V-H-ras-transformed rat fibroblasts, (+)- and (-)-perillyl alcohol, 7-methyl-perillyl alcohol, (+)-limonene oxide and (+)-perillic acid methyl ester were all found to efficiently inhibit cell growth at 1 mM, whereas (+)-limonene caused an approximately 50% growth reduction at 5 mM, Whereas BZA-BB, an inhibitor of Ras farnesyl transferase, was found to induce morphological reversion of 12v-H-ras-transformed cells, (+)-perillyl alcohol and (+)-limonene did not induce reversion. Furthermore, monoterpenes did not decrease MAP kinase enzyme activity or collagenase promoter activity in PANC-1 cells, two functions known to be down-stream from Pas, We conclude that although effective in inhibiting the growth of tumor cells harboring activated res oncogenes, limonene and (+)-perillyl alcohol are unlikely to act by inhibiting Ras function.

  • Cisplatin at clinically relevant concentrations enhances interleukin-2 synthesis by human primary blood lymphocytes
  • 1999
  • Ingår i: Anti-Cancer Drugs. - 0959-4973. ; 10:2, s. 219-227
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Cytotoxic drugs influence the expression of certain genes in cancer cells. Cisplatin has recently been shown to modulate interleukin (IL)-1 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α production in macrophages. In this study, we wanted to investigate whether cisplatin interferes with the IL-2, IL-2 receptor (IL-2R), interferon (IFN)-γ, and TNF-α expression in phytohemagglutin-stimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes. IL-2 was analyzed in a bioassay, while IFN-γ and TNF-α were measured by ELISA. Northern blots were performed to quantify steady-state cytokine mRNA levels. Furthermore, T cell subsets and IL-2R surface expression were analyzed by means of flow cytometry. A maximum stimulatory effect on IL-2 production (1.8-fold increase) was observed with cisplatin at 5-10 μM while IFN-γ and TNF-α synthesis and IL-2R density were unaffected. However, cisplatin-treated cells displayed enhanced IL-2, IL-2R, IFN-γ and TNF-α mRNA levels compared to drug-free controls. Cisplatin did not prolong cytokine mRNA half-life as revealed with the transcriptional inhibitor actinomycin D. In contrast to an inhibited growth of CD4+ T lymphocytes, CD3+CD8+ cell density was unaffected at intermediate cisplatin concentrations (10 μM). Bleomycin, carboplatin, doxorubicin, novobiocin or etoposide, which were included for comparison, did not interfere with IL-2 expression. Our data imply that cisplatin most likely stimulated cytokine transcription via a putative stress induced signaling pathway.

  • Necrosis of malignant gliomas after intratumoral injection of 201Tl in vivo in the rat
  • 1995
  • Ingår i: Anti-Cancer Drugs. - 0959-4973. ; 6:1, s. 109-114
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Fourteen adult Fischer 344 rats were inoculated in vivo unilaterally in the caudate nucleus in the brain with malignant RG 2 glioma cells. By 3 weeks a tumor with a diameter of 3-6 mm normally develops. Ten animals which survived the repeated periods of anesthesia and thallium (Tl) injections (intratumorally three times of 201Tl, 15-23 days after inoculation) showed a prolonged retention of radioactivity at the site of injection with no uptake in other organs except for the kidneys. Singular circumscribed necroses were found post-mortem at the site of injection, comprising malignant glioma tumor tissue, which in six animals was absent, in three animals was markedly reduced in size compared with controls and in one animal had the expected size. In four animals metastases were found in distant locations in the brain; in three of these cases there was a retention of radioactivity in the tumor. The selective necrotizing effect on the tumor cells is interpreted as mainly due to emission of Auger electrons from intracellularly accumulated 201Tl, giving rise to very high energy deposition in the vicinity of the cell nucleus. The results should also have implications for the treatment of human malignant gliomas.

  • Navoban (tropisetron) alone and in combination with dexamethasone in the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting : the Nordic experience. The Nordic Antiemetic Trial Group
  • 1995
  • Ingår i: Anti-Cancer Drugs. - : Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health). - 0959-4973 .- 1473-5741. ; 6:Suppl 1, s. 6-31
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Navoban (tropisetron) three different Nordic multicentre trials were conducted during the period 1988-92. In all, 1050 patients were recruited from 15 centres. In the first study, Navoban monotherapy was compared with a high-dose metoclopramide cocktail. In the second, Navoban +/- dexamethasone was evaluated for those patients not fully protected by Navoban alone. In the third trial, Navoban was evaluated for various chemotherapy regimens, for long-term efficacy, and for various risk groups of patients. Spontaneous intercycle variations were also evaluated. Navoban was found to be as effective as the antiemetic cocktail but with a more favourable spectrum of side effects and a simpler schedule of administration. Navoban was more effective during the acute than the delayed phase. Addition of dexamethasone significantly improved prevention of both acute and delayed emesis. Long term efficacy seemed to be stable up to 10 cycles of chemotherapy. Patients treated with noncisplatin regimens showed significantly higher protection rates than patients treated with cisplatin. Various cancer diagnoses and cytostatic agents were also evaluated. Gender and age were important risk factors. Navoban was found to be an efficacious antiemetic agent, especially regarding acute nausea and vomiting. Addition of a corticosteroid significantly improved the effect during highly emetogenic chemotherapy. The role of Navoban for delayed emesis must be evaluated in future trials. The two most common side effects were headache and constipation. Overall, Navoban was well tolerated and patient compliance with the drug was high.
