Artesunate shows potent anti-tumor activity in B-cell lymphoma
BACKGROUND Although chemo-immunotherapy has led to an improved overall survival for most B-cell lymphoma types, relapsed and refractory disease remains a challenge. The malaria drug artesunate has previously been identified as a growth suppressor in some cancer types and was tested as a new treatment option in B-cell lymphoma. METHODS We included artesunate in a cancer sensitivity drug screen...
متن کاملAnti-tumor effects of naked plasmid DNA using a hydrodynamics-based procedure.
High levels of foreign gene expression in mouse hepatocytes can be achieved by the rapid injection of a large volume of naked plasmid (pDNA) into animals via the tail vein, the so-called hydrodynamics-based procedure. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of hydrodynamics-based tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) transfer for tumor treatment, in which the naked pDNA encoding TNFalpha was ...
متن کاملAugmented anti-tumor effect of dendritic cells genetically engineered by interleukin-12 plasmid DNA.
The objective of this study was to genetically engineer dendritic cells (DC) for biological activation and evaluate their anti-tumor activity in a tumor-bearing mouse model. Mouse DC were incubated on the surface of culture dishes which had been coated with the complexes of a cationized dextran and luciferase plasmid DNA complexes plus a cell adhesion protein, Pronectin, for gene transfection (...
متن کاملUnusual plasmid DNA organization in an octopine crown gall tumor.
A cloned tobacco crown gall tumor, 1595501, incited by A. tumefaciens strain 15955 was studied. Molecular analysis of the organization of the T-DNA by means of Southern transfer and hybridization techniques indicated that the 1595501 tumor has about 10 copies of TL DNA, five of which are complete TL DNA, whereas most octopine tumors have only one to two copies of complete TL DNA. Hybridization ...
متن کاملProlonged in vivo expression and anti-tumor response of DNA-based anti-HER2 antibodies
Antibody gene transfer presents an appealing alternative to conventional antibody protein therapy. This pre-clinical study evaluates the impact of various parameters on the pharmacokinetics and efficacy of in vivo expressed DNA-based anti-HER2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), newly engineered and delivered via intramuscular electrotransfer in mice. Plasma concentrations of trastuzumab and 4D5, its...
