ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We have investigated effects of alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), both as a single agent and in combination with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) against a human colon tumor xenograft (T6) grown as primary tissue culture in serum-free medium and in combination with doxorubicin (DX) against a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line (A549)."7.68In vitro response of a human colon tumor xenograft and a lung adenocarcinoma cell line to alpha-difluoromethylornithine alone and in combination with 5-fluorouracil and doxorubicin.

"The effects of human recombinant interferon-alpha 2 (IFN-alpha 2) and alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) as single agents and in combination were studied for efficacy against the renal cell adenocarcinoma (JDF-1) in an in vitro clonogenic assay and in vivo as xenografts in nude mice."7.67Effects of alpha-difluoromethylornithine and recombinant interferon-alpha 2 on the growth of a human renal cell adenocarcinoma xenograft in nude mice.

"alpha-Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) and methylglyoxal bis-(guanylhydrazone) (MGBG) were tested against a murine renal adenocarcinoma, because polyamines are necessary for neoplastic cell growth and because human renal adenocarcinomas contain higher levels of spermidine than do normal renal cells; MGBG inhibits spermidine synthesis and has some activity against human renal tumors; DFMO irreversibly inhibits ornithine decarboxylase, the first rate-limiting enzyme controlling polyamine biosynthesis; and DFMO promotes intracellular accumulation of MGBG in experimental tumor models and human leukemia."7.67Effects of alpha-difluoromethylornithine and methylglyoxal bis(guanylhydrazone) on the growth of experimental renal adenocarcinoma in mice.

( Algranati, ID; de Lustig, ES; Klein, S; Miret, JJ, 1985)
"Because alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) reduces the incidence of experimental colon cancers, inhibits the growth of human lung cancer cells and human leukemia cells in culture, and in combination with methylglyoxal (bis)guanylhydrazone induces remission in children with leukemia, its effectiveness against a human colon adenocarcinoma cell line (Colo 205) was tested alone and in combination with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)."7.66Effects of alpha-difluoromethylornithine and 5-fluorouracil on the proliferation of a human colon adenocarcinoma cell line.
