Electron microscopic studies of sarcoma-180 ascites cells, which were treated with platinum-thymine at a concentration of 60 micrograms/ml, showed mitotic inhibition. The drug clumped the chromosomes into a compact mass at the center of the cell preventing them from separating during mitosis.
Mouse mammary sarcoma cells, line EMT6/Ro, were exposed for 1 min to 1 MHz continuous wave ultrasound over a range of intensities from 0.5 to 30 W/cm2 (spatial peak). The presence of thymine base damage (TBD) products of the 5,6-dihydroxydihydrothymine type was determined by an alkali degradation
Ultrastructural studies of the effects of the chemotherapeutic agent platinum-thymine, on the morphology of sarcoma-180 ascites cells were studied to elucidate the cancer cells immediate response to therapy and the possible mode of cancer cell regression. Sarcoma-180 ascites cells treated with
We synthesized five platinum (II) dinuclear complexes containing 1-alkylated thymines. Two of the 1-alkylated thymine, 1-MeThy and 1-EtThy, complexes afforded good crystals. The X-ray structures of these complexes were determined. The 1-MeThy complexes has a head-to-head (H-H) arrangement, while the
The actual nature of spindle cell carcinoma has been debated extensively because of its rarity. It carries a poor prognosis, even when early-stage disease is diagnosed and resected. In view of the rarity and the significance of the histological diagnosis, we report a patient with rapidly progressing
Mouse uterine tumors were examined for genetic alterations in the ras proto-oncogene and p53 tumor suppressor gene and for other biologically relevant immunohistochemical markers that may increase our understanding of the events that occur in uterine cancer. Fourteen dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced
BACKGROUND
The objective of this study was to determine whether specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from nucleotide excision repair (NER) and homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair pathways are associated with sensitivity to trabectedin in patients with soft tissue sarcoma
BACKGROUND
Familial soft tissue sarcomas are extremely rare. There is little information available on the clinical features and molecular findings of the hereditary occurrence of mesenchymal tumor.
METHODS
A woman and her younger brother had malignant fibrous histiocytoma (pleomorphic type) and
Background: Emergence of Kaposi's Sarcoma in the cases other than HIV, following the use of immunosuppressant drugs, demonstrates that it is related to weak immunity. The fact that this malignancy does not occur in every HIV-positive
Formation of ribothymidine by the ribose exchange reaction between thymine and uridine with the cell-free extract of mouse Ehrlich ascites tumor cells was demonstrated. Since phosphate ions appear to be not required for this reaction, perhaps it proceeds by the mechnism of direct exchange of
The antitumor activity of 1-(2-tetrahydrofuryl)-5-fluorouracil (FT-207) on sarcoma was enhanced by oral coadministration of uracil, thymine, or thymidine. The activity was enhanced equally by thymine and by uracil than by thymidine, but thymine caused loss in body weight. The antitumor activity of
Bleomycin (BLM) exclusively affects thymidine-containing compounds such as DNA and polydeoxyribonucleotides by releasing free thymine and leaving aldehyde functions. Molecular morphology and base sequence of the DNA strongly influence BLM activity. High BLM concentrations, besides modifying DNA into
Codon 257 of the p53 gene is an extremely rare target for somatic mutations (accounting for only two of 1600 published mutations). We report here two constitutional mutations both affecting the second nucleotide of codon 257. A thymine to adenine transversion resulting in an amino acid change from
Experimental investigations on the dimethyl-amino-stilbous carcino-sarcoma of the rat have led to a modified interstitial post-operative Curie-therapy of gliomas in the brain hemispheres following treatment with radio sensitizers. After treatment with the thymine-analogous radio-sensitizers
The [2',5'-bis-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)]-3'-spiro-5''-(4''-amino- 1'',2''-oxathiole-2'',2''-dioxide) (TSAO) derivatives of ribofuranosylthymine, uridine, 5-bromouridine, 5-methylcytidine, inosine, and adenosine are potent and selective inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) but
