Abstract:
Vincristine is used in the clinical treatment of colon cancer, especially in patients diagnosed in the advanced phase of cancer development. Unfortunately, similar to other agents used during antitumor therapy, vincristine might induce chemoresistance. Studies of this process focus mainly on the analysis of the molecular mechanisms within cancer, usually ignoring the role of stromal cells. Our present findings confirm that vincristine stimulates the secretion of tumor growth factors class beta and interleukin-6 from cancer-associated fibroblasts as a result of paracrine stimulation by cancer c

Abstract Introduction Vincristine, a vinca alkaloid, is one of the most widely used and effective medications for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Vincristine exerts its cytotoxic effects by interfering with microtubule formation and mitotic spindle dynamics, leading to mitotic arrest and cell death. However its use often causes neuropathy characterized by abdominal pain, sensory and motor dysfunctions. To date, various candidate gene studies have failed to identify consistent genetic variants associated with an increased risk of vincristine-induced neuropathy. Methods Vincristine-induced n

Indolizidine alkaloids such as anticancer drugs vinblastine and vincristine are exceptionally attractive due to their widespread occurrence, prominent bioactivity, complex structure, and sophisticated involvement in the chemical defense for the producing organisms. However, the versatility of the indolizidine alkaloid biosynthesis remains incompletely addressed since the knowledge about such biosynthetic machineries is only limited to several representatives. Herein, we describe the biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) for the biosynthesis of curvulamine, a skeletally unprecedented antibacterial in

Abstract:
Apoptosis is a fundamental process of cell regulation whereby cells execute one or more biochemical programs leading to cell death. Several mechanisms have been evaluated and suggested to play roles in the regulation of apoptosis, including the activation of phospholipase A2 (PLA2), usually measured as release of 3H-labelled arachidonic acid (AA) from prelabelled cells. The current study was aimed at examining the role of PLA2 in regulating apoptosis in response to several inducers (such as vincristine and etoposide) in lymphoid cell lines. Cells were labelled with [3H]fatty acids and the rele

Introduction: Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common non-Hodgkin lymphoma and standard frontline treatment is carried out with R-CHOP chemotherapy. However, DLBCL remains an extremely heterogenous disease and refractory/relapse events are common. Recent sequencing experiments have found 18% of relapsed DLBCL contains Fas mutations, an increase from mutations seen at initial diagnosis. Fas receptor (FasR) is a transmembrane protein encoded by the Fas gene that is critical for the induction of extrinsic apoptosis. Once FasR is bound by Fas Ligand expressed on cytotoxic T cells,

At equal doses, these two different cell lines incurred equivalent DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) upon irradiation as measured by pulse-field electrophoresis, and showed nearly identical bulk DSB repair capacity and efficiency, suggesting that the resistence phenotype is not due to a reduction in DSBs.

Leukemia stem cells (LSCs) comprise a largely quiescent, highly chemotherapy-resistant cell population and are believed to initiate and maintain AML, as well as contribute to its poor prognosis.

Abstract Background and hypothesis: CD25 (IL2RA, interleukin 2 receptor α chain) is a transmembrane protein with a 13aa cytoplasmic tail. CD25 cooperates with β- and γ-chains in binding IL-2, but does not contribute to cytokine signaling. During normal B cell development, CD25 is specifically upregulated on the surface of IL7-dependent pre-B cells and is also expressed on the surface of a subset of human pre-B ALL cases. CD25-expressing ALL is typically associated with poor clinical outcome. For these reasons, we studied the functional significance of CD25 expression on human pre-B ALL cells.
