Polyphenols enhance the activity of alkylating agents in leukaemia cell lines. [PDF]

open access: yesOncotarget, 2019
Polyphenols have been shown to sensitize solid tumours to alkylating agents such as cisplatin, and induce apoptosis and/or cell-cycle arrest. Here, we assess the effects of five polyphenols alone and in combination with three alkylating agents: cisplatin,

Polymorphism in glutathione S-transferase P1 is associated with susceptibility to chemotherapyinduced leukemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) detoxify potentially mutagenic and toxic DNA-reactive electrophiles, including metabolites of several chemotherapeutic agents, some of which are suspected human carcinogens.

Balancing repair and tolerance of DNA damage caused by alkylating agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Alkylating agents constitute a major class of frontline chemotherapeutic drugs that inflict cytotoxic DNA damage as their main mode of action, in addition to collateral mutagenic damage.

TDP1 deficiency sensitizes human cells to base damage via distinct topoisomerase I and PARP mechanisms with potential applications for cancer therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Base damage and topoisomerase I (Top1)-linked DNA breaks are abundant forms of endogenous DNA breakage, contributing to hereditary ataxia and underlying the cytotoxicity of a wide range of anti-cancer agents.

Restoration of Sensitivity in Chemo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive brain tumor in adults. Despite multimodal treatments including surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy the prognosis remains poor and relapse occurs regularly.

Microsomal superoxide anion production and NADPH-oxidation in a series of 22 aziridinylbenzoquinones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Several 2,5-bis(1-aziridinyl)-1,4-benzoquinones (BABQs) can be activated to alkylating species by reduction of the quinone moiety. On the other hand, cytotoxicity of these compounds can be induced by redox cycling.

The first-in-class alkylating deacetylase inhibitor molecule tinostamustine shows antitumor effects and is synergistic with radiotherapy in preclinical models of glioblastoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: The use of alkylating agents such as temozolomide in association with radiotherapy (RT) is the therapeutic standard of glioblastoma (GBM).

Poly(thioether) vitrimers via transalkylation of trialkylsulfonium salts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Vitrimers are permanently cross-linked organic polymers that can be reshaped, molded, and recycled without loss of network integrity. Herein, we report poly(thioether) networks, prepared through a straightforward thiol-ene photopolymerization, that can ...

The Genetic Basis of Mutation Rate Variation in Yeast. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mutations are the root source of genetic variation and underlie the process of evolution. Although the rates at which mutations occur vary considerably between species, little is known about differences within species, or the genetic and molecular basis ...
