Targeted toxins

Journal of Oncology Pharmacy Practice, 1999
Objective. Current modalities used in the treatment of cancer often cause unacceptable damage to normal tissue. Toxins targeted toward tumor cells by antibodies or growth factors have the potential to selectively kill tumor cells while leaving normal tissue intact.

Clinical trials of targeted toxins

Seminars in Cancer Biology, 1995
Immunotoxins (monoclonal antibodies chemically coupled to peptide toxins) and fusion toxins (peptide ligands fused genetically to peptide toxins) have been used to treat a variety of malignancies over the last 20 years. Problems with normal tissue toxicities (vascular leak syndrome, hepatotoxicity, and neurotoxicities), poor penetration to tumor ...

Diphtheria toxin-based targeted toxins that target glioblastoma multiforme

Toxin Reviews, 2014
AbstractTargeted toxins (TTs) are compounds that bind cell surface receptors overexpressed on cancer cells. After the molecule enters the cell, the toxin component migrates to the ribosomes where it blocks protein synthesis killing the cell. Most of these proteins are recombinant and contain a carrier ligand or antibody attached to a modified bacterial

Targeted Toxins

Current Protocols in Neuroscience, 2001
AbstractMolecular neurosurgery can be used to make selective neural lesions by targeting cytotoxins to specific populations of neurons based on their common expression of a particular surface molecule. The targeted toxins employed in this unit consist of a targeting moiety (vector) and an effector moiety (cytotoxin). In all cases discussed in this unit,

Targeted toxins in pain

Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2003
Although only recently applied to the study of nociception, 'molecular neurosurgery', producing highly selective neural lesions using targeted cytotoxins, has proven a valuable tool for analysis of nociceptive systems and promises to yield much more information on the role of specific types of neurons in pain perception and possibly new pain therapies.

Targeting Bacterial Toxins

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2012
AbstractProtein toxins constitute the main virulence factors of several species of bacteria and have proven to be attractive targets for drug development. Lead candidates that target bacterial toxins range from small molecules to polymeric binders, and act at each of the multiple steps in the process of toxin‐mediated pathogenicity.

Diphtheria toxin-based targeted toxin therapy for brain tumors

Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 2013
Targeted toxins (TT) are molecules that bind cell surface antigens or receptors such as the transferrin or interleukin-13 receptor that are overexpressed in cancer. After internalization, the toxin component kills the cell. These recombinant proteins consist of an antibody or carrier ligand coupled to a modified plant or bacterial toxin such as ...
