چکیده
We previously demonstrated the doxorubicininduced expression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), interleukin-8 (IL-8), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and tumor necrosis factor-· in human RCK8 lymphoma cells and NCI-H69 small cell lung carcinoma cells in which reactive oxygen species might be involved. Amurubicin hydrochloride (AMR), a novel derivative drug of doxorubicin, was recently introduced to clinical practice for treatment of lung cancer in Japan. Therefore, we investigated the effects of AMR on the expression of uPA and chemokines in NCI-H69 cells. AMR and its active form, amurubicinol hydrochloride (AMROH), both induced the expression of uPA, IL-8 and MCP-1 in H69 cells in a dose-dependent manner. When the cultured supernatant obtained from AMRtreated H69 cells was subcutaneously injected into rabbits, migration of a significant number of eosinophils was observed around the injected site. Antigen levels of eotaxin-3, a major migration-factor of eosinophils, were increased in AMROHtreated cells in parallel with the mRNA levels. The induction was observed below the clinically achievable concentration of AMR or AMROH. Thus, the simultaneous induction of uPA, IL-8, MCP-1 and eotaxin-3 may play a role in the pharmacological action of AMR through induction of the interaction between proinflammatory cells and lung carcinoma cells.

متن کاملLack in effects of therapeutic concentrations of dexmedetomidine and clonidine on the neuromuscular blocking action of rocuronium in isolated rat diaphragms.
BACKGROUND We investigated the effects of the alpha-2 adrenoceptor agonists clonidine and dexmedetomidine on the neuromuscular blocking effect of rocuronium in vitro. METHODS Isometric twitch tensions of rat nerve-hemidiaphragm preparations elicited by indirect (phrenic nerve) supramaximal stimulation at 0.1 Hz were evaluated. RESULTS Clonidine and dexmedetomidine 50 microM (n = 6 each), bu...

In planning educational technology initiatives, the concerns of many stakeholders are typically taken into account, including the concerns of administrators, teachers, parents, and employers. The perspective of students are recognized as valuable, but not often queried or considered. This paper explores the opinions of K-12 students about a one-to-one laptop programme implementation through con...

In an open study the clinical efficacy of milk serum (whey) protein (Immunocal; cysteine content: 7.6-fold higher than that of casein) isolated from fresh milk and purified without heating was evaluated in 25 patients with chronic hepatitis B or C. Immunocal (12 g as protein) food (mousse) was given twice a day, in the morning and evening, for 12 weeks (test period). Casein (12 g as protein) fo...
