Therapeutic efficacy of endostatin exhibits a biphasic dose-response curve.
We show here that recombinant endostatin protein has a biphasic effect on the inhibition of endothelial cell migration in vitro. In tumor-bearing animals, there is a similar biphasic effect on the inhibition of tumor growth and on circulating endothelial cells after once-daily s.c. injections. This biphasic effect is revealed as a U-shaped curve in which efficacy is optimal between very low and...
متن کاملA Hypothesis Concerning the Biphasic Dose-response of Tumors to Angiostatin and Endostatin
This manuscript proposes a hypothesis to explain the U-shaped dose-response observed for angiostatin and other high-molecular-weight drugs in various anti-cancer bio-assays. The dose-response curves for angiostatin and endostatin (measured as suppression of tumor growth) go through an optimum (i.e., minimum tumor growth) and then becomes less effective at higher doses. The literature suggests t...
متن کاملConstruction of a dose – response curve by induction of premature chromosome condensation for biological dosimetry
Premature Chromosome Condensation (PCC) appears to have a possible utility for biological dosimetry purposes. The PCC technique may be adapted for cases of suspicion of overexposure where sampling is performed at least one day after an accident. For this purpose, human blood samples were exposed in vitro to 60Co up to 10 Gy and the PCC technique was performed immediately after irradiation. Anal...
متن کاملMutagen Sensitivity Exhibits a Dose-Response Relationship in Case-Control
We have been quantitating, as a marker of cancer susceptibility, induced chromatid breaks in lymphocyte cultures exposed to chemical mutagens. This report highlights the consistency of the results from two casecontrol studies, using different methods of presenting the data. In both the lung cancer case-control study, which used bleomycin, a radiomimetic agent, as the test mutagen, and the melan...
متن کاملDose estimation with the calibration of dose-response curve of micronucleus in human peripheral lymphocytes induced by 50MeV proton beams
Background: The purpose of this paper is to establish an easy and reliable biodosimeter protocol to evaluate the biological effects of proton beams. Materials and Methods: Human peripheral blood lymphocytes were irradiated using proton beams (LET: 34.6 keV μm−1), and the chromosome aberrations induced were analyzed using cytokinesis-blocked (CB) micronucleus (MN) assay. To determine th...
