Oncolytic adenovirus vectors for nitroreductase suicide gene therapy of prostate cancer [PDF]
Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer in the UK and USA, with a 1/13 chance of diagnosis and a 1/30 lifetime risk of death from the disease. Current treatment options include radiotherapy, surgery and hormone therapy, however 1/3 patients escape

Activation of 1-nitropyrene by nitroreductase increases the DNA adduct level and mutagenicity [PDF]
1-Nitropyrene (1-NP) is a mutagenic nitro compound in the environment. We studied correlations between the mutagenicity of 1-NP for three strains of Salmonella typhimurium, the activity of bacterial nitroreductases and the amount of 1-NP-derived DNA ...

Fast analysis of nitrobenzene by nitroreductase modified electrode
Nitroreductase (NR) was modified on glass carbon electrode and used in nitrobenzene analysis. Both cyclic voltammetry (CV) and triple potential step chronocoulometry (TPSC) with a narrow potential step interval were used.

The gene suicide system NTR/CB1954 causes ablation of differentiated 3T3L1 adipocytes by apoptosis
The feasibility of ablating differentiated adipocytes and the mechanism of cell ablation with a suitable prodrug activating system is described. The system is based on the use of E. coli nitroreductase (NTR) enzyme that activates certain nitro compounds,
