This study aims to evaluate the outcome of HDC/auto-SCT with topotecan–thiotepa–carboplatin and melphalan–etoposide–carboplatin (TTC/ MEC) regimens in pediatric brain tumors. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 33 children (median age 6 years) who underwent HDC/auto-SCT (18 tandem and 15 single) with uniform conditioning regimens. Results Eleven patients aged < 3 years at diagnosis were eligible for HDC/auto-SCT to avoid or defer radiotherapy. In addi- tion, nine patients with high-risk medulloblastoma (presence of metastasis and/or postoperative residual tumor ≥ 1.5 cm2), eight with other high-risk brain tumor (six CNS primitive neuroectodermal tumor, one CNS atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor, and one pineoblastoma), and fve with relapsed brain tumors were enrolled. -

Sequence Variation in the Dihydrofolate Reductase-Thymidylate Synthase (DHFR-TS) and Trypanothione Reductase (TR) Genes of Trypanosoma Cruzi
Molecular & Biochemical Parasitology 121 (2002) 33Á/47 www.parasitology-online.com Sequence variation in the dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase (DHFR-TS) and trypanothione reductase (TR) genes of Trypanosoma cruzi Carlos A. Machado *, Francisco J. Ayala Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of California, Irvine, CA 92697-2525, USA Received 15 November 2001; received in revised form 25 January 2002 Abstract Dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase (DHFR-TS) and trypanothione reductase (TR) are important enzymes for the metabolism of protozoan parasites from the family Trypanosomatidae (e.g. Trypanosoma spp., Leishmania spp.) that are targets of current drug-design studies. Very limited information exists on the levels of genetic polymorphism of these enzymes in natural populations of any trypanosomatid parasite. We present results of a survey of nucleotide variation in the genes coding for those enzymes in a large sample of strains from Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas’ disease. We discuss the results from an evolutionary perspective. A sample of 31 strains show 39 silent and five amino acid polymorphisms in DHFR-TS, and 35 silent and 11 amino acid polymorphisms in TR. No amino acid replacements occur in regions that are important for the enzymatic activity of these proteins, but some polymorphisms occur in sites previously assumed to be invariant. The sequences from both genes cluster in four major groups, a result that is not fully consistent with the current classification of T. cruzi in two major groups of strains. Most polymorphisms correspond to fixed differences among the four sequence groups. Two tests of neutrality show that there is no evidence of adaptivedivergence or of selectiveevents having shaped the distribution of polymorphisms and fixed differences in these genes in T. -

Unlike Adriamycin, menogarol more than DNA synthesis in L1210 cells in culture (10). In does not bind strongly to ONA, and it minimally inhibits DNA and contrast, menogarol caused very little inhibition of RNA or DNA RNA synthesis at lethal doses. Adriamycin is a clinically active synthesis at cytotoxic doses (10); (b) Adriamycin interacted drug, and menogarol is undergoing preclinical toxicology at Na strongly with DNA, in contrast to the weak interaction seen with tional Cancer Institute. In view of the reported mutagenicity of menogarol (10); (c) cells in S phase were most sensitive to Adriamycin, we have compared the genotoxicity of the two Adriamycin as compared to maximum toxicity of menogarol to drugs. Our results show that, although Adriamycin and meno cells in Gì(5).These results collectively suggested that meno garol differ significantly in their bacterial mutagenicity (Ames garol acts through some mechanism other than the intercalative assay), they have similar genotoxic activity in several mammalian DNA binding proposed for Adriamycin. -
