Radiosensitization effect of ZnO nanoparticles in lung cancer cells at clinically relevant megavoltage energy
Introduction: Radiation therapy is one of the major modalities that have long been used in cancer treatment. Radiotherapy is often accompanied by early and late toxicity and side effects and narrow therapeutic window. Similarity in radiation absorption properties of tumors and neighboring healthy tissues is often the reason for low specificity of radiation therapy. Development ...
متن کاملReevaluation of the microsomal metabolism of montelukast: major contribution by CYP2C8 at clinically relevant concentrations.
According to published in vitro studies, cytochrome P450 3A4 catalyzes montelukast 21-hydroxylation (M5 formation), whereas CYP2C9 catalyzes 36-hydroxylation (M6), the primary step in the main metabolic pathway of montelukast. However, montelukast is a selective competitive CYP2C8 inhibitor, and our recent in vivo studies suggest that CYP2C8 is involved in its metabolism. We therefore reevaluat...
متن کاملDetection of Adriamycin–DNA adducts by accelerator mass spectrometry at clinically relevant Adriamycin concentrations
Limited sensitivity of existing assays has prevented investigation of whether Adriamycin-DNA adducts are involved in the anti-tumour potential of Adriamycin. Previous detection has achieved a sensitivity of a few Adriamycin-DNA adducts/10(4) bp DNA, but has required the use of supra-clinical drug concentrations. This work sought to measure Adriamycin-DNA adducts at sub-micromolar doses using ac...
متن کاملAlternative angiotensin II formation in rat arteries occurs only at very high concentrations of angiotensin I.
Contrary to previous reports, recent enzymatic assays showed the predominance of chymase-like activity in rat arteries. We determined the existence and significance of such alternative pathways in rat carotid arteries by measuring contraction of arterial rings in organ baths and blood pressure in conscious rats. Hamster aorta served as a positive control for chymase. Temocapril (30 micromol/L) ...
متن کاملAcetaldehyde at clinically relevant concentrations inhibits inward rectifier potassium current I(K1) in rat ventricular myocytes.
Considering the effects of alcohol on cardiac electrical behavior as well as the important role of the inward rectifier potassium current I(K1) in arrhythmogenesis, this study was aimed at the effect of acetaldehyde, the primary metabolite of ethanol, on I(K1) in rat ventricular myocytes. Acetaldehyde induced a reversible inhibition of I(K1) with IC(50) = 53.7+/-7.7 microM at -110 mV; a signifi...
