Polyamine pathway inhibition as a novel therapeutic approach to treating neuroblastoma
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 ...

Putrescine, spermidine, and spermine were three main polyamines isolated from soybeans and partially characterized. Occurrence of polyamines in soybeans was established by separating trichloroacetic acid extracts of soybeans by cationic exchange column chromatography, identification with thin layer chromatography, paper electrophoresis, mass spectral ...

Polyamines in Halophytes [PDF]
Polyamines (PAs) are related to many aspects of the plant's life cycle, including responses to biotic and abiotic stress. On the other hand, halophytic plants are useful models for studying salt tolerance mechanisms related to the adaptive strategies that these plants present in adverse environments.

Antitumor potential of polyamines in cancer
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.

The mechanisms by which polyamines accelerate tumor spread
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
