eflornithine and Hyperplasia

eflornithine has been researched along with Hyperplasia in 20 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.

Hyperplasia: An increase in the number of cells in a tissue or organ without tumor formation. It differs from HYPERTROPHY, which is an increase in bulk without an increase in the number of cells.

"Although tamoxifen appears to markedly reduce breast cancer risk in women with a prior diagnosis of atypical hyperplasia or in situ carcinoma, it is not clear what other groups of women receive substantial benefit."8.81Beyond tamoxifen new endpoints for breast cancer chemoprevention, new drugs for breast cancer prevention.

( Fabian, CJ; Kimler, BF, 2001)
" This study examined the effects of polyamine synthesis inhibition using eflornithine, a suicide inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase on blood pressure, compensatory remodeling of the cardiovascular system, and cardiac and aortic polyamine contents using an aortic coarctation model in rats."3.69Multiple polyamine regulatory pathways control compensatory cardiovascular hypertrophy in coarctation hypertension. ( Arcot, SS; Aziz, SM; Guo, H; Lipke, DW; Newman, PS; Olson, JW; Soltis, EE; Tofiq, S, 1997)
"To determine the role of putrescine synthesis in adaptive hyperplasia of the ileum and colon, DL-alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an enzyme-activated, irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), the enzyme controlling putrescine biosynthesis, was fed to rats after excision of the proximal half of the small bowel."3.67Inhibition of ileal and colonic ornithine decarboxylase activity by alpha-difluoromethylornithine in rats: transient atrophic changes and loss of postresectional adaptive growth.
