eflornithine and Fibrosarcoma

eflornithine has been researched along with Fibrosarcoma in 5 studies

Eflornithine: An inhibitor of ORNITHINE DECARBOXYLASE, the rate limiting enzyme of the polyamine biosynthetic pathway.
eflornithine : A fluoroamino acid that is ornithine substituted by a difluoromethyl group at position 2.

Fibrosarcoma: A sarcoma derived from deep fibrous tissue, characterized by bundles of immature proliferating fibroblasts with variable collagen formation, which tends to invade locally and metastasize by the bloodstream. (Stedman, 25th ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Rats bearing a subcutaneous fibrosarcoma were randomized to receive a chow diet (n = 5), TPN (n = 5), or TPN + difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) (an irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), at 1000 mg/kg body wt/day n = 4) for 6 days by continuous central venous infusion."3.67Effect of difluoromethylornithine on host and tumor polyamine metabolism during total parenteral nutrition.
