  4. Aerosolized BC-819 inhibits primary but not secondary lung cancer growth.
Despite numerous efforts, drug based treatments for patients
suffering from lung cancer remains poor. As a promising
alternative, we investigated the therapeutic potential of BC-819
for the treatment of lung cancer in mouse tumor models. BC-819 is a
novel plasmid DNA which encodes for the A-fragment of Diphtheria
toxin and has previously been shown to successfully inhibit tumor
growth in human clinical study of bladder carcinoma. In a first set
of experiments, we examined in vitro efficacy of BC-819 in human
lung cancer cell-lines NCI-H460, NCI-H358 and A549, which revealed
>90% reduction of cell growth. In vivo efficacy was examined in
an orthotopic mouse xenograft lung cancer model and in a lung
metastasis model using luminescent A549-C8-luc adenocarcinoma
cells. These cells resulted in peri- and intra-bronchiolar tumors
upon intrabronchial application and parenchymal tumors upon
intravenous injection, respectively. Mice suffering from these lung
tumors were treated with BC-819, complexed to branched
polyethylenimine (PEI) and aerosolized to the mice once per week
for a period of 10 weeks. Using this regimen, growth of
intrabronchially induced lung tumors was significantly inhibited
(p = 0.01), whereas no effect could be observed in mice suffering
from lung metastasis. In summary, we suggest that aerosolized
PEI/BC-819 is capable of reducing growth only in tumors arising
from the luminal part of the airways and are therefore directly
accessible for inhaled BC-819.

Deine Privatkopie der Folgen, die du nicht verlieren willst.

Podcast-Folgen verschwinden. Feeds werden auf die letzten Episoden gekürzt, Hoster räumen alte Dateien ab, Formate wechseln den Anbieter und lassen ihr Archiv zurück. Mit „Mein Archiv“ sichert podcast.de die Folgen deiner Podcasts für dich — angefangen bei den ältesten, denn die sind zuerst weg.

  • Deine gesicherten Folgen bleiben hörbar, auch wenn das Original offline geht.
  • Auch Folgen, die im heutigen Feed gar nicht mehr stehen — podcast.de kennt sie noch.
  • Herunterladen bleibt möglich, solange die Folge beim Podcaster liegt. Der zählt seine Abrufe wie bisher.
