Dehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone another aroylhydrazone iron chelator with high antioxidative potential ; Simunek et al., 2005a ; suggested that these chelators generally possess relatively short terminal half-lives of elimination Kovarikova et al., 2005 ; . This might be a limitation in the light of the relatively long stay of anthracyclines and their metabolites in myocardium Cusack et al., 1995 ; . Our results suggest that the chelator administered at the optimal dose may chelate the intracellular labile iron pool inside the cardiomyocytes and thereby afford meaningful cardioprotection. Nevertheless, further boosting of the cardioprotective efficacy might rather require a longer intracellular half-life instead of its higher peak concentrations; as in this case, some perturbations in the cellular iron metabolism in the cardiomyocytes already compromised with an anthracycline may appear. Recent studies suggest that anthracyclines and or their 13-OH metabolites ; are able to significantly impair cellular iron homeostasis Kwok and Richardson, 2004; Xu et al., 2005 ; . Kwok and Richardson 2003 ; demonstrated that anthracyclines are capable of causing marked perturbations in iron storage in ferritin and its subsequent release. It is plausible that very intensive chelation, such as that induced with ICL670 treatment Hasinoff et al., 2003 ; or with high doses of aroylhydrazones, might "overshoot" the optimal degree of chelation and subsequently contribute to the iron metabolism misbalance caused by anthracyclines. As this effect might be associated with the peak concentrations, perhaps it could be helpful to administer aroylhydrazones by longer infusions or in smaller doses before and possibly also after anthracyclines. Furthermore, even better might be to improve the pharmacokinetic properties of o-108 through mild modification of its chemical structure. In conclusion, the present study has shown that the novel iron chelator o-108 does not have any negative impact on the antiproliferative efficacy of daunorubicin. Moreover, the chelator itself has moderate antiproliferative effects that are additive to those of DAU. Furthermore, besides dexrazoxane, this study is the first to support the iron chelation concept as an effective cardioprotective strategy against chronic type of anthracycline cardiotoxicity; administration of o-108 10 mg kg ; was able to completely overcome the daunorubicin-induced mortality along with marked improvement in cardiac function and morphology. However, the surprising dose dependence experienced in this study suggests that the role of iron in this process might be more complex than originally supposed. Hence, further studies of iron chelation-based cardioprotection are needed to determine the potential of this approach and to obtain deeper insight into the pathogenesis of the anthracycline cardiotoxicity.
Contact e-mail: Gotthard ifert chemie.tu-dresden It is one of the urgent problems in microelectronics to develop insulating materials with dielectric constants of less than 2 for future applications in semiconducting circuits.Here we predict a new class of interlayer dielectrics based on fluorinated carbon nanotubes using density-functional theory based methods. A chemical derivatization of single wall carbon nanotubes SWNT ; may open possibilities for tailoring the electronic properties of nanotubes. An ethylene like decoration pattern of carbon nanotubes can open a rather large gap and reduce also the dielectric constant considerably. In this way it is proposed that fluorination of carbon nanotube based material may be used for ultralow-k materials.

In the present study, monitoring of the CDRE response and Ca2 levels in pmc1 and vcx1 cells revealed that Pmc1 had a major effect on the kinetics of Ca2 -induced gene expression and intracellular Ca2 , whereas Vcx1 had little or no effect on these signals in fission yeast. These results are quite different from the results seen in S. cerevisiae, indicating that Vcx1 but not Pmc1 has a major effect on the dynamics of the Ca2 signal Miseta et al., 1999 ; . Calcineurin inhibits Vcx1 in S. cerevisiae Cunningham and Fink, 1996 ; , as well as in S. pombe our unpublished observation ; , and calcineurin activates the transcription of Pmc1 in both yeasts Matheos et al., 1997; Stathopoulos and Cyert, 1997; Hirayama et al., 2003 ; . Together, our present results may explain why inhibition of calcineurin activity causes tolerance to CaCl2 in S. cerevisiae Cunningham and Fink, 1994, 1996 ; and hypersensitivity to CaCl2 in S. pombe Hirayama et al., 2003 ; . This is also the first report on the existence of two distinct calcium-dependent pathways for the activation of calcineurin in fission yeast cells. One is the pathway that is activated by extracellular Ca2 as described above and is not dependent on the Yam8 Cch1 channel. Knockout of the components of the Yam8 Cch1 channel or the MAPK pathway did not affect calcineurin activation. The other is the pathway that is Yam8 Cch1-dependent and is regulated by Pck2 and Pmk1 MAP kinase pathway. Notably high extracellular NaCl and KCl, but not MgCl2 or sorbitol, caused the Yam8 Cch1-dependent activation of calcineurin as shown in Table 4. These results suggest that high osmotic pressure is not the reason for the activation but that another mechanism, which remains to be determined, caused the Yam8 Cch1-dependent activation of calcineurin. Although the molecular mechanism remains unclear, these two pathways may coordinately regulate Ca2 homeostasis under the stress conditions. In budding yeast, high extracellular Ca2 as well as ER stress have been reported to stimulate calcineurin Stathopoulos and Cyert, 1997; Bonilla et al., 2002 ; . In addition, Denis and Cyert 2002 ; measured the Ca2 response triggered by hypertonic shock and compared it with that caused by high extracellular Ca2 . Their results observed with NaCl and CaCl2 addition were similar to those observed by us in terms of the differences in magnitude and in the timing of the gene expression response under the same conditions. These results suggest that there may exist two distinct mechanisms of Ca2 regulation in budding yeast as well. In budding yeast, ER stress activates the cell integrity MAP kinase cascade, and the activation of Pkc1 and Mpk1 is necessary for the stimulation of the Mid1 Cch1 Ca2 channel Bonilla and Cunningham, 2003 ; . Here, in fission yeast, we showed that knockouts of the genes encoding the components of Pck2-Pmk1 MAP kinase pathway markedly diminished the Yam8 Cch1-dependent activation of calcineurin. Furthermore, we showed that the activation of Pmk1 MAP kinase pathway by the overexpression of Pek1DD, a constitutively active form of an upstream MAP kinase kinase of Pmk1, caused 45Ca2 accumulation and that the activation of calcineurin is possibly mediated by Ca2 influx through the Yam8 Cch1 channel. Interestingly, the activation of calcineurin caused by Pek1DD overexpression showed a marked synergistic effect with the stimulation by high extracellular NaCl, but not with the stimulation by high extracellular CaCl2. With reference to the findings on Mid1 Cch1 channel complex in budding yeast Kanzaki et al., 1999; Bonilla and Cunningham, 2003 ; , and together with our findings, these results suggest that the opening of the Ca2 permeable channel requires the channel complex to be phosMolecular Biology of the Cell.

Ablation of eosinophils leads to a reduction of allergen-induced pulmonary pathology. J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 284: L169L178, 2003. First published September 13, 2002; 10.1152 ajplung.00260.2002.--A strategy to deplete eosinophils from the lungs of ovalbumin OVA ; -sensitized challenged mice was developed using antibody-mediated depletion. Concurrent administration [viz. the peritoneal cavity systemic ; and as an aerosol to the lung local ; ] of a rat anti-mouse CCR3 monoclonal antibody resulted in the abolition of eosinophils from the lung such that the airway lumen was essentially devoid of eosinophils. Moreover, perivascular peribronchial eosinophil numbers were reduced to levels indistinguishable from saline-challenged animals. This antibody-mediated depletion was not accompanied by effects on any other leukocyte population, including, but not limited to, T cells and mast cells basophils. In addition, no effects were observed on other underlying allergic inflammatory responses in OVA-treated mice, including OVA-specific immunoglobulin production as well as T cell-dependent elaboration of Th2 cytokines. The ablation of virtually all pulmonary eosinophils in OVA-treated mice i.e., without concurrent effects on T cell activities ; resulted in a significant decrease in mucus accumulation and abolished allergen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness. These data demonstrate a direct causative relationship between allergen-mediated pulmonary pathologies and eosinophils. mouse; lung; inflammation; transgenic knockout; interleukin-5.

All patients were admitted to hospital during the first course of chemotherapy. Chemotherapy consisted of cisplatin 25 mg m2 ; on days 1, 8 and 15 and docetaxel 20 mg m2 ; on days 1, 8 and 15 every 4 weeks. Docetaxel was infused over 30 min with 16 mg dexamethasone and 3 mg granisetron administered just before the docetaxel infusion. Ninety minutes after the completion of the docetaxel infusion, 25 mg m2 cisplatin were administered over 15 min with 1500 ml normal saline over 3.5 h. The prophylactic administration of G-CSF was not permitted. Administration of G-CSF was permitted in patients with grade 4 neutropenia and or leukopenia or grade 3 febrile neutropenia. The administration of both cisplatin and docetaxel were skipped on day 8 and or day 15 if the patients met the following criteria: WBC 2000 mm3 and or platelets 50 000 mm3. No dose modifications were carried out on days 8 and or day 15 of the cisplatin and docetaxel administrations. Treatment was carried out for at least two courses, unless unacceptable toxicity or disease progression occurred.

Enzastaurin, an oral serine threonine kinase inhibitor, targets the protein kinase C and phosphoinositide-3 kinase protein kinase B pathways, inducing tumor cell apoptosis, inhibiting proliferation, and suppressing tumor-induced angiogenesis. Preclinical data have suggested that combining enzastaurin and pemetrexed could produce synergistic antitumor activity in vivo. There is no significant pharmacokinetic interaction between the two drugs, and the combination seems well tolerated [69]. A study of pemetrexed plus carboplatin with or without enzastaurin versus docetaxel plus carboplatin as first-line treatment in patients with advanced NSCLC is currently recruiting. Its aims are to investigate the safety, response, time to progression, and survival with these regimens, with analyses planned to correlate effects with various genetic and patient characteristics [70]. Vinflunine is a vinca alkaloid and a novel derivative of vinorelbine that has demonstrated antitumor activity superior to that of vinorelbine. There have been trials using vinflunine as a single-agent second-line treatment in advanced NSCLC. A phase II trial reported a response rate of 7.9% in the intent-to-treat analysis and 8.3% in the evaluable population. Disease control was achieved in 35 of evaluable patients 58.3% ; . The median duration of response was 7.8 months, median PFS time was 2.6 months, and median survival time was 7.0 months. Toxicity was manageable and reversible [71]. An open-label, multicenter, randomized, phase III study compared vinflunine with docetaxel. The results for vinflunine versus docetaxel, respectively, included a median PFS time of 2.3 versus 2.3 months, response rates of 4.4% versus 5.5%, stable disease in 36.0% versus 39.6%, disease control in 40.4% versus 45.1%, and median overall survival times of 6.7 versus 7.2 months. These data suggest that vinflunine and doral.

Determining the maximum tolerated dose our group performed a phase i trial of docetaxel and cyclophosphamide in 45 patients with advanced solid tumors to determine the maximum tolerated dose in patients who had prior therapy for metastatic disease, and in patients with untreated metastatic disease with and without g-csf support ; , as well as to characterize the toxicity of this combination regimen and dovonex.
The number of patients to be enrolled was planned using a modified multistage Fleming design [24] based on an expected docetaxel response rate of 15% and a non-response rate of 5%, with error of 0.05 one-tailed ; and error of 0.2. The required number of patients was 44. An interim analysis was planned when 2024 patients were enrolled. If none of the first 2024 patients had a partial or complete response, the trial was to be stopped. If a major objective response was confirmed in any of the first 2024 patients studied, accrual was to be continued to a total of 44. Overall survival was measured from the start of the treatment to the date of death or the last confirmed date of survival. The KaplanMeier method was used to estimate the overall survival curves. Survival time was censored at the last confirmation date if the patients were alive and docetaxel.

Peptide MHC, and causes the T cell to enter the cell cycle. The second ``costimulatory'' signal involves the interaction of a costimulatory molecule [such as B7.1 CD80 ; ] expressed on antigen-presenting cells, with its ligand on the T cell the ligand for B7.1 is CD28 and CTLA4; refs. 24 26 ; . have recently reported the results of two phase II prostate cancer clinical trials where we administered rV-PSA mixed with a recombinant vaccinia containing the T-cell costimulatory molecule B7.1 along with booster vaccinations of avipox-PSA. In the first study, 30 patients with localized prostate cancer were randomized in a 2: fashion to receive radiation therapy with vaccination or radiation therapy alone 27 ; . There were eight monthly vaccine injections administered to the patients randomized to the combination therapy in this study. Seventeen of 19 patients assigned to the vaccine arm received all eight doses. Thirteen of these 17 patients had enhanced increases in PSA-specific T cells compared with none in the radiation alone group. This study showed that the vaccine could be given safely and that specific T-cell responses were achieved in the majority of patients 27 ; . In the second study, 42 patients with nonmetastatic hormonerefractory prostate cancer were randomized to receive either vaccination or antiandrogen therapy with nilutamide. If, after 6 months of treatment, the patients had no metastasis and their PSA continued to increase, they could then receive a combination of both treatments. Three patients who had received nilutamide had been removed from the study due to side effects. No significant side effects were observed among the patients treated with vaccine. The patients on the vaccine arm had a 9.9-month time to treatment failure versus 7.6 months in the nilutamide treated group not statistically significant ; . After 6 months, eight of the patients in the nilutamide group had vaccine added to treatment, which resulted in an additional time to treatment failure of 5.2 month resulting in a median time to treatment failure of 15.9 months from onset of nilutamide. Twelve patients in the vaccine group received nilutamide with a median time to treatment failure of 13.9 months and a median of 25.9 months from initiation of vaccine 28 ; . Thus, there is precedent for combining this vaccine strategy with other standard therapies for prostate cancer. In the study reported here, we have employed this vaccine regimen in the metastatic setting to determine the effect of docetaxel on immunologic activity as well as the safety and clinical efficacy of this vaccine. The administration of cytotoxic chemotherapy can result in bone marrow suppression and has been traditionally perceived to have a negative effect on immune function. Recent data suggest, however, that taxane-based chemotherapy may actually exert beneficial immunomodulatory effects through a variety of mechanisms, including cytokine production and T-cell infiltration of tumor cells 29, 30 ; . In the study reported here, we examine the effect of combining docetaxel and vaccine therapy and their combined effect on immunologic activity as well as the safety and clinical efficacy of treatment strategy in patients with metastatic androgen-independent prostate cancer and doxorubicin.
