Dinitroazetidines Are a Novel Class of Anticancer Agents and Hypoxia-Activated Radiation Sensitizers Developed from Highly Energetic Materials [PDF]
Abstract In an effort to develop cancer therapies that maximize cytotoxicity, while minimizing unwanted side effects, we studied a series of novel compounds based on the highly energetic heterocyclic scaffold, dinitroazetidine. In this study, we report the preclinical validation of 1-bromoacetyl-3,3-dinitroazetidine (ABDNAZ), a ...

Cross-sensitivity to DNA-damaging agents in radiation-sensitive mutants of murine leukemia cells. [PDF]
Two independently isolated radiation-sensitive mutants, M10 and LX830, of mouse L5178Y cells were compared for their sensitivity to various DNA-damaging agents. These two mutants share hypersensitivity to gamma rays, bleomycin, arabinofuranosyl cytosine (Ara-C) and aphidicolin.
