Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRetinoids Chemosensitize Ovarian Cancer Cell Lines to Cisplatin Independent of Nuclear Receptors and p53Suresh Guruswamy, Doris M. BenbrookTreatment of ovarian cancer with cisplatin-based chemotherapy is highly toxic and is often followed by cancer recurrence. Repeated treatments with cisplatin frequently result in the development of resistance to this drug. Drugs with low toxicity that could enhance the tumor cell killing effects of cisplatin could potentially reduce the toxicity and enhance the efficacy of cisplatin. The mechanism of cell … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,958 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCPI-1189 Protects Against Dextran Sulfate Sodium-induced Colitis in MiceBeverley Greenwood-Van Meerveld, Karl R. TylerNitrone-related therapeutics (NRTs) represent a new class of small molecules potentially effective in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by protecting cells from damage caused by excess inflammation and/or oxidative stress. The goal of this study was to determine the efficacy and potency of CPI-1189, a novel therapeutic agent, in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice. Mice received … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,713 accessesView PDF Cite
