dichlororibofuranosylbenzimidazole and Astrocytoma

dichlororibofuranosylbenzimidazole has been researched along with Astrocytoma in 1 studies

Dichlororibofuranosylbenzimidazole: An RNA polymerase II transcriptional inhibitor. This compound terminates transcription prematurely by selective inhibition of RNA synthesis. It is used in research to study underlying mechanisms of cellular regulation.

Astrocytoma: Neoplasms of the brain and spinal cord derived from glial cells which vary from histologically benign forms to highly anaplastic and malignant tumors. Fibrillary astrocytomas are the most common type and may be classified in order of increasing malignancy (grades I through IV). In the first two decades of life, astrocytomas tend to originate in the cerebellar hemispheres; in adults, they most frequently arise in the cerebrum and frequently undergo malignant transformation.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Inhibiting protein synthesis by incubating C6-2B rat astrocytoma cells with cycloheximide or emetine for periods up to 24 hours caused a progressive decrease in the accumulation of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) when the cells were challenged for 30 minutes with 100 microM forskolin."3.66Selective reduction of forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation by inhibitors of protein synthesis. ( Barovsky, K; Brooker, G; Pedone, C, 1983)
