Exposure to anticancer drugs can result in transgenerational genomic instability in mice.
The genetic effects of human exposure to anticancer drugs remain poorly understood. To establish whether exposure to anticancer drugs can result not only in mutation induction in the germ line of treated animals, but also in altered mutation rates in their offspring, we evaluated mutation rates in the offspring of male mice treated with three commonly used chemotherapeutic agents: cyclophospham...
متن کاملChromatography of Anticancer Drugs
Chromatographic techniques have been developed and successfully applied for the analysis of a considerable of number of organic and inorganic compounds present at trace level in sometimes complicated accompanying matrices. The rapid development of new chromatographic instrumentation and separation strategies resulted in the increase of the number of chromatographic technologies with higher sepa...

متن کاملPotentiation of Anticancer Drugs: Effects of Pentoxifylline on Neoplastic Cells
The drug efflux activity of P-glycoprotein (P-gp, a product of the mdr1 gene, ABCB1 member of ABC transporter family) represents a mechanism by which tumor cells escape death induced by chemotherapeutics. In this study, we investigated the mechanisms involved in the effects of pentoxifylline (PTX) on P-gp-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) in mouse leukemia L1210/VCR cells. Parental sensitive ...
متن کامل[Basic investigation for classification of anticancer drugs by pharmacological effects].
The most effective drugs based on the type of cancer are chosen for chemotherapy. Tumor cells can be targeted at the DNA, RNA or protein level, and most of the classical anticancer drugs interact with tumor DNA in a time-dependent manner or a concentration-dependent manner. However, it has been unclear to date whether a combination therapy is carried out by using exact classification. Thus it i...
