Adriamycin/cyclophosphamide and adriamycin/melphalan in advanced L1210 leukaemia

Uptake and metabolism of myo-inositol by L1210 leukaemia cells.

The initial rate of uptake of [3H]myo-inositol by L1210 murine leukaemia cells is directly proportional to the extracellular concentration and unaffected by several analogues of myo-inositol even at millimolar concentrations. Scyllitol, a geometric isomer of myo-inositol, partially inhibited the uptake of myo-inositol (40% at 0.1 mM). A portion of the uptake of myo-inositol was not inhibited ev...

assessment of deep word knowledge in elementary and advanced iranian efl learners: a comparison of selective and productive wat tasks

testing plays a vital role in any language teaching program. it allows teachers and stakeholders, including program administrators, parents, admissions officers and prospective employers to be assured that the learners are progressing according to an accepted standard (douglas, 2010). the problems currently facing language testers have both practical and theoretical implications but the first i...

Carnitine prevents the early mitochondrial damage induced by methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) in L1210 leukaemia cells.

We previously found that the anti-cancer drug methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) (mitoguazone) depresses carnitine-dependent oxidation of long-chain fatty acids in cultured mouse leukaemia cells [Nikula, Alhonen-Hongisto, Seppänen & Jänne (1984) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 120, 9-14]. We have now investigated whether carnitine also influences the development of the well-known mitochondrial d...

A comparison of the Antileukaemic Effects of Recombinant Human Tumour Necrosis Factor-α and its Muteins on Leukaemia L1210 and Leukaemia P388 in Mice

We investigated the influence of recombinant human tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and its derivatives termed muteins III, V, VI-in which the first 3 to 7 amino acids of native TNF-alpha have been replaced-on the survival time of mice inoculated with leukaemia L1210 or leukaemia P338. TNF-alpha prolonged the survival of mice with leukaemia L1210 but did not have any therapeutic activit...
