  • Title: [Effect of cyclophosphane on polyamine excretion in rats with Guérin's carcinoma and Pliss' lymphosarcoma].
    Author: Berdinskikh NK, Draga NV, Zaletok SP.
    Journal: Eksp Onkol; 1989; 11(3):69-72. PubMed ID: 2752948.
    Abstract:
    Polyamines were determined in the urine of rats with the Guerin carcinoma and Pliss lymphosarcoma treated with cyclophosphamide. Alterations in polyamine distribution and rise of the spermidine/putrescine ratio were caused by the tumor regression or partial inhibition of the tumor growth. Regression of the Guerin carcinoma was accompanied by a rise of spermidine concentration in urine. Delay of the Pliss lymphosarcoma growth led to the putrescine level stabilization. Exposition of the rat normal tissues and cells to the cytostatic caused the alteration in the urinary polyamine excretion. These data suggests that the polyamine test may be useful to evaluate the efficiency of the anticancer treatment soon after its beginning.
