Polyamines prevent DFMO-mediated inhibition of angiogenesis

Cancer Letters, 1994
Tumor growth mainly depend on formation of new blood vessels. DFMO (alpha-difluoromethylornithine), an inhibitor of polyamine biosynthesis, inhibits tumor growth in many animal tumors. Our investigation was to evaluate the requirement of polyamines for induction of angiogenesis by tumor cells and spleen lymphocytes from tumor-bearing mice.

Chemoprevention in prostate cancer: The role of difluoromethylornithine (DFMO)

Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 1992
The polyamines are normal cell constituents considered to have an important role in the regulation of proliferation and differentiation. DFMO is an irreversible, enzyme-activated, suicide inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), the enzyme responsible for the first and rate-limiting step in mammalian polyamine synthesis.

Delayed, Reversible Hearing Loss Caused by Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO)

Laryngoscope, 2001
AbstractObjectives/Hypothesis Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) is an anticancer experimental drug that is ototoxic. The objectives of these three experiments were to: 1) determine a dose and dosing schedule of DFMO that produces significant hearing loss (HL) in newborn gerbils; 2) compare the HL level for control and newborn gerbils receiving daily ...

Chemoprevention of Prostate Carcinogenesis by DFMO and/or Finasteride Treatment in Male Wistar Rats

Tumori, 2002
In the present study the chemopreventive activities of DFMO, the irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase, and finasteride, the inhibitor of prostatic 5a-reductase, against the development of chemically induced prostate adenocarcinoma by methylnitrosourea/testosterone propionate in male Wistar rats were investigated.

Sensitivity of Trypanosomatid Protozoa to DFMO and Metabolic Turnover of Ornithine Decarboxylase

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2000
alpha-Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), the specific and irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), was able to induce the arrest of proliferation in Leishmania mexicana and ODC-transformed Trypanosoma cruzi cultures grown in a semi-defined medium essentially free of polyamines.

Combination treatment of TRAIL, DFMO and radiation for malignant glioma cells

Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 2015
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has shown potent and cancer-selective killing activity and drawn considerable attention as a promising therapy for cancer. Another promising cancer therapy is difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase, which is oraly administered and well tolerated ...

DFMO Carbon Dots for Treatment of Neuroblastoma and Bioimaging

ACS Applied Bio Materials, 2022
Neuroblastoma (NB) is a pediatric malignancy affecting the peripheral nervous system. Despite recent advancements in treatment, many children affected with NB continue to submit to this illness, and new therapeutic strategies are desperately needed. In recent years, studies of carbon dots (CDs) as nanocarriers have mostly focused on the delivery of ...

Inhibition of DFMO-induced audiogenic seizures by chlordiazepoxide

Life Sciences, 1993
Mice given 1% alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) in the drinking water for 5 weeks developed a hyperactive behavior characterized by uncontrolled running upon stimulation with noise. The running was followed by seizures and sometimes death. These behaviors are characteristic of audiogenic seizures. Strain differences in susceptibility to DFMO-induced
