Design, Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel acridine-polyamine conjugates against prostate cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Prostate cancer is the most common cause of cancer death in men, aged 85 and over. Androgen receptor, a single polypeptide with three functional domains is very important during initiation and progression of the disease.

SAT1-Induced Spermidine Depletion Potentiates Food Allergy. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Spermidine depletion, driven by upregulated spermidine/spermine N1‐acetyltransferase (SAT1), potentiates food allergy by promoting mast cell degranulation through autophagy suppression. SAT1 physically interacts with the long noncoding RNA Cdk19os to inhibit Atg5 and Atg7, disrupting autophagic flux.

Polyamine pathway inhibition as a novel therapeutic approach to treating neuroblastoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2012
Polyamines are highly regulated essential cations that are elevated in rapidly proliferating tissues, including diverse cancers. Expression analyses in neuroblastomas suggest that upregulation of polyamine pro-synthetic enzymes and downregulation of ...

Antitumor potential of polyamines in cancer

open access: yesActa Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica
The dysregulation of polyamines in tumors has made polyamine metabolism an appealing target for cancer therapy. Gene mutations drive the reprogramming of polyamine metabolism in tumors, presenting promising opportunities for clinical treatment.

Structure-activity relationship of polyamine conjugates for uptake via polyamine transport system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
High toxicity of anticancer drugs led to development of targeted drug delivery directly to the specific organs. Polyamine transport system (PTS) of mammalian cells is one of the targets for a cell-selective drug delivery of polyamine-drug conjugates into

Polyamine-Modified Gold Nanoparticles Readily Adsorb on Cell Membranes for Bioimaging

open access: yes, 2019
The surface modification of nanoparticles (NPs) can enhance cellular and intracellular targeting. A new type of polyamine-modified gold NPs (AuNPs) are designed and synthesized, which can be selectively absorbed onto the cell membrane.

The mechanisms by which polyamines accelerate tumor spread

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2011
Increased polyamine concentrations in the blood and urine of cancer patients reflect the enhanced levels of polyamine synthesis in cancer tissues arising from increased activity of enzymes responsible for polyamine synthesis. In addition to their de novo
