Of 48 cases of phenothiazine poisoning that were analyzed, 34 were attributed to suicide attempts, nine to accidental ingestion, and five to drug reactions.As outpatient treatment of schizophrenia increases, cases of over-dose with phenothiazine drugs may be expected to increase also.The prescribing of multiple phenothiazines and antidepressants is probably contributory to the occurrence of mixed drug ingestions.The symptoms and signs of phenothiazine poisoning are largely predictable if the atropine-like, alpha-blocking, quinidine-like, and extrapyramidal actions of phenothiazines are appreciated. Unexplainable tachypnea and paradoxical miosis were noted in severe cases.In one case in the study phenothiazine intoxication was present in the newborn infant of a schizophrenic mother. 相似文献

The ability of difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), a specific polyamine synthesis inhibitor, to interact with various biological modifiers to inhibit the colony-forming growth of human melanoma cells was determined by using the median effect principle to computer model the strength of two agent interactions. Either alpha- or gamma-IFN (interferon) in combination with DFMO resulted in a synergistic inhibition on human melanoma colony formation. For human melanoma cells which were not resistant to 13-cis RA (retinoic acid), an additive suppression on colony formation was obtained with the retinoid-DFMO combination. Dexamethasone (DEX) interacted with DFMO to yield a synergistic reduction in melanoma colony number on glucocorticoid sensitive cells and no growth enhancement with DFMO on glucocorticoid resistant melanoma lines. Human melanoma cells displayed differential long-term growth sensitivity to DFMO treatment. C8146C human melanoma cells were terminally growth-inhibited by a 96 h exposure to DFMO, in a manner which was concentration and time dependent. The proliferation of C82-7A melanoma cells was inhibited by 95% in presence of DFMO, but upon removal of DFMO the cells regained their ability to proliferate and form colonies. The simultaneous addition of DEX plus alpha-IFN plus 13-cis-RA with DFMO caused most of the human melanoma cells in these lines to become permanently growth arrested. Pre-treatment with DEX plus alpha-IFN plus 13-cis RA, but without DFMO, did not have any long term effect on the ability of melanoma cells to recover and proliferate in soft agar.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We demonstrated previously that c-Jun, JunB and c-Fos RNA were dysregulated in metastatic melanoma cells compared with normal human melanocytes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the distribution in composition of AP-1 dimers in human melanoma pathogenesis. We investigated AP-1 dimer pairing in radial growth phase-like (RGP) (w3211) and vertical growth phase-like (VGP) (w1205) human melanoma cells and metastatic cell lines (cloned from patients, c83-2c, c81-46A, A375, respectively) compared with melanocytes using electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA), Western blot and transfection analyses. There are progressive variations in AP-1 composition in different melanoma cell lines compared with normal melanocytes, in which c-Jun, JunD and FosB were involved in AP-1 complexes. In w3211, c-Jun, JunD and Fra-1 were involved in AP-1 binding, while in w1205, overall AP-1 binding activity was decreased significantly and supershift binding was detected only with JunD antibodies. In metastatic c81-46A and A375 cells, only JunD was involved in AP-1 binding activity, but in a third (c83-2c) c-Jun, JunD and Fra-1 were present. Western blot evaluation detected c-Jun in melanocytes and w3211, but this component was decreased significantly or was not detectable in w1205, c81-46A and A375 cells. In contrast, JunD protein was elevated in c81-46A and c83-2c cells compared with melanocytes and RGP and VGP cell lines. Normal melanocytes and c83-2c cells (which have c-Jun involved in AP-1 binding), transfected with c-Jun antisense and treated with cisplatin, showed higher viability compared with untransfected cells, while in c81-46A cells (in which only JunD is detectable) no change in cell viability was observed following treatment with cisplatin and c-jun antisense transfection. A dominant-negative c-Jun mutant (TAM67) significantly increased the soft agar colony formation of w3211 and c83-2c cells. These results suggest that components of AP-1, especially c-Jun, may offer a new target for the prevention or treatment of human melanoma progression. 相似文献

Metastatic melanomas are typically resistant to radiation and chemotherapy. The underlying basis for this phenomenon may result in part from defects in apoptotic pathways. Nuclear factor kappa B (NFkappaB) has been shown to control apoptosis in many cell types and normally functions as an immediate stress response mechanism that is rigorously controlled by multiple inhibitory complexes. We have previously shown that NFkappaB binding is elevated in metastatic melanoma cells relative to normal melanocytes. In the current study, Western blot analysis showed that, compared with normal melanocytes, melanoma cell lines have higher nuclear levels of the NFkappaB subunits p50 (7-fold) and RelA (5-10-fold). In response to tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha), both melanocytes and melanoma cells showed increased nuclear p50 and RelA levels, but levels in melanoma cells remained higher than in melanocytes. We also found that melanoma cells expressed higher cytoplasmic levels of RelA, p105/p50 and the inhibitory protein, inhibitor of kappa B alpha (IkappaBalpha) than melanocytes. To directly test whether RelA expression has an impact on melanoma cell survival, we used antisense RelA phosphorothioate oligonucleotides and found that melanoma cell viability was significantly decreased compared with untreated or control cultures. The constitutive activation of NFkappaB in metastatic melanoma cell cultures may, therefore, support an inappropriate cell survival pathway that can be therapeutically manipulated. 相似文献

The inhibitory effect of various prostaglandin analogues on the anchorage independent growth of murine and human melanoma cells was measured. PGA analogues (which were modified at C-16 and C-18) did not demonstrate any major improvement in activity over PGA alone. These included 16, 16-dimethyl PGA1, 16,16-dimethyl-PGA2, 16,16-dimethyl-18-oxa-PGA2 and trans-δ-2-15-α acetoxy-16,16-dimethyl-18-oxa-11-deoxy-PGE1-methylester. The thromboxane synthetase inhibitor, U51605, demonstrated weak anti-proliferative activity. PGD2 (with a ketone at C-11 versus C-9 for PGA and PGE) was the most potent prostaglandin tested. Cells from melanoma lines displayed species differences in their sensitivities. PGA1 and PGE1 were the most potent inhibitors of the anchorage independent growth of murine melanoma cells. On human melanoma cells PGD2 was the most active prostaglandin, 2–3 times more potent than PGA1; PGE1 was a very weak inhibitor. 相似文献

Zinc inhibited the colony formation of Cloudman S-91 murine melanoma cells in a dose dependent manner with an ID50 of 3.4 ug/ml. Total inhibition of the melanoma colony-forming units occurred at a zinc concentration of 4.42 ug/ml. In the presence of dexamethasone the ID50 for zinc inhibition was reduced by 49% and total inhibition of anchorage-independent growth occurred at the achievable in vivo zinc concentration of 3.0 ug/ml. Dexamethasone and zinc in combination effected a greater than additive inhibition of the murine melanoma colony-forming units. Statistical evaluation of these results showed that zinc and dexamethasone interacted synergistically to inhibit the formation of murine melanoma colonies. 相似文献
