The Chinese hamster ovary cell line xrs-1 is hypersensitive to yradiation. This sensitivity has been attributed to an inability of this cell line to efficiently repair T-ray induced double-strand breaks (DSBs). We have recently reported that xrs-1 is also sensitive to topoisomerase II inhibitors that stabilize the cleavable complex. In this study, we have investigated the basis of this sensitiv...
Internal tandem duplication of fms-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3-ITD) is frequent (30 percent) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and is associated with short disease-free survival following chemotherapy. The serine threonine kinase Pim-1 is a pro-survival oncogene transcriptionally upregulated by FLT3-ITD that also promotes its signaling in a positive feedback loop. Thus inhibiting Pim-1 represen...
The Chinese hamster ovary cell line xrs-1 is hypersensitive to gamma-radiation. This sensitivity has been attributed to an inability of this cell line to efficiently repair gamma-ray induced double-strand breaks (DSBs). We have recently reported that xrs-1 is also sensitive to topoisomerase II inhibitors that stabilize the cleavable complex. In this study, we have investigated the basis of this...
Topoisomerase II is an enzyme essential for DNA replication, chromosome condensation and chromosome segregation. Inhibitors of topoisomerase II are important drugs used
About 95,000 compounds were screened by the anucleate cell blue assay. Fifty-one of the hit compounds had various structures and showed inhibitory activity against DNA gyrase and/or topoisomerase IV. Moreover, the compounds exhibited antibacterial activity against a fluoroquinolone- and novobiocin-resistant strain of Staphylococcus aureus. The anucleate cell blue assay is therefore a useful too...
The cytotoxicity of topoisomerase inhibitors is thought to result from the induction of enzyme-mediated DNA breaks. The fact that these breaks reverse rapidly in cells programmed to die, led us to investigate further the cytotoxic mechanisms of topoisomerase I (camptothecin) and topoisomerase II inhibitors (VP-16 and amsacrine) in Chinese Hamster lung fibroblasts (DC3F). Exposures (30 min) to c...
Candida albicans topoisomerase II, encoded by the TOP2 gene, mediates chromosome segregation by a double-strand DNA break mechanism and is a potential target for anti-fungal therapy. In this paper, we report the characterization of the C. albicans TOP2 gene and its use to develop a yeast system that allows the identification and study of anti-fungal topoisomerase II inhibitors in vivo. The gene...
treatment with intensification of chemotherapy using alkylating agents and topoisomerase ii inhibitors and radiotherapy has improved the outcome of patients with solid tumors such as ewing’s sarcoma. however, there are several reports of secondary malignancy following treatment of these tumors. in this article, we describe a 12 years old girl with all who had ewing’s sarcoma when she was 8 year...
Topoisomerase I inhibitors are a new class of anticancer agents with a mechanism of action aimed at interrupting DNA replication in cancer cells, the result of which is cell death. Most if not all Topoisomerase I inhibitors are derivatives of the plant extract camptothecin. Irinotecan (CPT-11), a semi-synthetic derivative of camptothecin, is approved in the United States for the treatment of co...
