Synthesis of cyclo-β-tripeptides and their biological in vitro evaluation as antiproliferatives against the growth of human cancer cell lines

Karl Gademann

A number of cyclo-β-tripeptides and their linear precursors were subjected to primary biol. evaluation for cancer-cell growth inhibition (one-dose, three-cell essay), and the five most active ones were then tested in the anti-tumor screen of the National C ...

Role of extracellular matrix assembly in interstitial transport in solid tumors

Melody Swartz

The extracellular matrix (ECM) may contribute to the drug resistance of a solid tumor by preventing the penetration of therapeutic agents. We measured differences in interstitial resistance to macromolecule (IgG) motion in four tumor types and found an une ...

Maternal inheritance of P cytotype in Drosophila melanogaster: a "pre-P cytotype" is strictly extra-chromosomally transmitted

Bruno Lemaitre

In Drosophila melanogaster, transposition of the P element is under the control of a cellular state known as cytotype. The P cytotype represses P transposition whereas the M cytotype is permissive for transposition. In the long-term, the P cytotype is dete ...
