The effect of heterogeneity on optimal regimens in cancer chemotherapy

Optimal drug regimens for cancer chemotherapy are determined when knowledge is only available on the behaviour of the tumour and the drugs used, over a population of patients. The case of two drugs is investigated where they are equivalent on average. Our calculations indicate that the optimal regimen has both drugs given initially but then sequences the two drugs. Our calculations also indicate that as tumour heterogeneity increases, the benefit to be gained from the optimal regimen can decrease in comparison to reasonable regimens. This has the effect of complicating the calculation of optimal regimens in a clinical setting, and may explain why results in experimental oncology fail to carry over to clinical oncology.     

Evaluation in rabbits of different anti-SHIV vaccine strategies based on DNA/fowlpox priming and virus-like particle boosting

Two different prime-boost immunization protocols were tested in rabbits and their immune response was evaluated and compared with the final aim of defining a vaccine strategy that might be able to protect non-human primates from infection with the pathogenic simian/human immunodeficiency virus, SHIV(89.6P). The two regimens were based on three priming immunizations with either an expression plasmid plus a fowlpox (FP) recombinant vector or with two FP recombinant vectors, each one expressing either the SIV(mac239) gag/pol or the HIV-1env(89.6P) genes. In both protocols, priming immunizations were followed by two boosts with SHIV-mimicking virus-like particles (VLP). A complete SHIV-specific response was observed in all animals. Interestingly, the DNA vaccine was three to 10 times more efficient than the FP recombinant in inducing an anti-gag humoral response. Real-time PCR confirmed the memory effect on T-cell subsets secreting interleukin-4 and interferon-gamma, as a consequence of stimulation of both arms of the immune system. Although both protocols were almost equally effective in eliciting homologous neutralizing antibodies and highlighted the efficacy of VLP administration for boosting, protocol A seemed to be more effective in promoting a balanced T-cell memory immune response and appears more promising for vaccine purposes.     

Free radicals,cytokines and nitric oxide in cardiac failure and myocardial infarction

Myocardial infarction is the most common cause of congestive cardiac failure. Free radicals, cytokines, nitric oxide (NO) and antioxidants play a major role both in atherosclerosis and myocardial damage and preservation. In the early stages of atherosclerosis, neutrophils and monocytes infiltrate the intima and generate free radicals which damage the endothelial cells. As a result, production of NO and prostacyclin by the endothelial cells declines, which have cardioprotective actions. This also has relevance to the beneficial action of aspirin since, it can modulate both prostanoid and l-arginine-NO systems and NF-kB translocation. In both acute myocardial infarction and chronic congestive cardiac failure, the plasma levels of various inflammatory mediators such as interleukins and tumour necrosis factor- (TNF) are elevated. TNF, produced by the inflammatory cells and the myocardium, can suppress myocardial contractility and induce the production of free radicals, which in turn can further damage the myocardium. Transforming growth factor (TGF), polyunsaturated fatty acids and the glucose-insulin-potassium regimen can antagonize the harmful actions of TNF and protect the myocardium. This explains why efforts made to reduce the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines have beneficial action and preserve the myocardium.     

The daily rhythms of melatonin and free fatty acids in goats under varying photoperiods and constant darkness

The purpose of the study was to explore parallel and divergent features of the daily rhythms of melatonin and plasma free fatty acids (FFA) in goats exposed to different lighting conditions. From these features, we attempted to analyze whether the endogenous melatonin rhythm plays any role in the maintenance of the FFA rhythm. Seven Finnish landrace goats were kept under artificial lighting that simulated the annual changes of photoperiod at 60°N (longest photoperiod, 18 h; shortest, 6 h). The ambient temperature and feeding regimen were kept constant. Blood samples were collected 6 times a year at 2 h intervals for 2 d, first in the prevailing light-dark (LD) conditions and then after 3 d in constant darkness (DD). In LD conditions, the melatonin levels always increased immediately after lights-off and declined around lights-on, except in winter (18 h darkness), when the low daytime levels were restored clearly before lights-on. The FFA levels also displayed a consistent rhythmicity, with low levels at night and a transient peak around lights-on. In DD conditions, the melatonin profiles were very similar to those found in the habitual LD conditions, but the rhythm tended to advance. The FFA rhythm persisted also in DD, and the morning peak tended to advance. There was an overall parallelism between the two rhythms, with one significant exception. In winter in LD conditions, the morning rise in FFA levels coincided with lights-on and not with the declining phase of melatonin, whereas in DD conditions, the FFA peak advanced several hours and coincided with the declining phase of melatonin. From this finding and comparisons of the calculated rhythm characteristics, i.e., phase-shifts, phase differences, and correlations, we conclude that the daily rhythm of FFA levels is most probably generated by an endogenous oscillator, primarily adjusted by dawn, whereas the melatonin rhythm in this species is regulated by an oscillator primarily adjusted by dusk. The results did not exclude a modulatory effect of melatonin on the daily FFA profiles, but melatonin secretion, alone, does not explain the patterns sufficiently.

Behavioral sensitization and tolerance to cocaine and the occupation of dopamine receptors by dopamine

Data from the authors’ laboratory on the neural substrates of Pavlovian conditioning and behavioral sensitization to psychomotor stimulants are reviewed. The findings of a recent experiment on the role of occupation of dopamine receptors by dopamine and its association to behavioral sensitization are reported. Daily intermittent injections of cocaine produced behavioral sensitization to the locomotor response in rats, whereas continuous cocaine infusions produced behavioral tolerance. Behavioral sensitization to cocaine was blocked by coadministration of nimodipine, anL-type calcium channel blocker. The increases in locomotion produced by cocaine was associated with an increase in the occupation of striatal dopamine D₁ and D₂ receptors, measured as the density of receptors protected from denaturation byN-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ). This association was not observed when rats were given a challenge injection of cocaine 10 d after withdrawal from similar treatment regimens. Rats given a cocaine challenge after withdrawal from either intermittent or continuous cocaine treatment regimens exhibited increased occupations of striatal D₁ and D₂ receptors. This increase was similar in magnitude to that observed in rats without a history of cocaine treatments after a challenge injection of cocaine. This suggests tnat the differences in occupancy of striatal dopamine receptors by dopamine observed in the prewithdrawal condition are likely the result of differences in brain levels of cocaine achieved by the two treatment regimens. Occupancy of striatals dopamine D₁ and D₂ receptors does not appear to be related to the development of sensitization to the motor-stimulating effects of cocaine.
