Quantitative estimation of recovery parameters after combined action of ionizing radiation and chemical agents
Background: Treatment of ionizing radiation combined with chemical agents can enhance the inactivation of cells. The aim of this study was to determine the parameters involved in the inhibition of cell recovery. Materials and Methods: A mathematical model describing the process of recovery as a decrease in the effective radiation dose was used. The model includes two parameters, recovery consta...
متن کاملEnhancing the antitumor activity of adriamycin and ionizing radiation.
Overexpression of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), when combined with certain chemicals that inhibit peroxide removal, increases cancer cell cytotoxicity. Elevating MnSOD levels in cells enhances the conversion of superoxide (O(2)(*-)) to hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), combined with inhibiting the removal of H(2)O(2), further increases H(2)O(2) levels, leading to increased cytotoxicity. W...
متن کاملCooperative antitumor effect of multitargeted kinase inhibitor ZD6474 and ionizing radiation in glioblastoma.
PURPOSE Glioblastoma multiforme is an aggressive disease in which vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the EGF receptor (EGFR) are implicated in tumor growth, relapse, and resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The VEGF receptors VEGFR-1 (flt-1) and VEGFR-2 (KDR), typically present on endothelial cells, have also been identified in human glioblastoma tissues and cell lines. In ad...
متن کاملPotentiation of the antitumor effect of ionizing radiation by brief concomitant exposures to angiostatin.
Angiostatin, a proteolytic fragment of plasminogen, inhibits the growth of primary and metastatic tumors by suppressing angiogenesis. When used in combination with ionizing radiation (IR), angiostatin demonstrates potent antitumor synergism, largely caused by inhibition of the tumor microvasculature. We report here the temporal interaction of angiostatin and IR in Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) tum...
متن کاملThe olivacine S16020 enhances the antitumor effect of ionizing radiation without increasing radio-induced mucositis.
The combination of a novel topoisomerase II inhibitor, S16020, and ionizing radiation (IR) was investigated with the aim of assessing normal tissue tolerance using a mouse mucosal lip model and antitumor activity in a human carcinoma (HEP2) cell line. No increase of acute mucosal reactions was seen when combining S16020 with IR as compared with IR alone. Using clonogenic cell survival assay, a ...
