pentoxifylline and Wilms Tumor

pentoxifylline has been researched along with Wilms Tumor in 3 studies

Wilms Tumor: A malignant kidney tumor, caused by the uncontrolled multiplication of renal stem (blastemal), stromal (STROMAL CELLS), and epithelial (EPITHELIAL CELLS) elements. However, not all three are present in every case. Several genes or chromosomal areas have been associated with Wilms tumor which is usually found in childhood as a firm lump in a child's side or ABDOMEN.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" pentoxifylline (Px) (which also were found to release PgI2 and t-PA) inhibited human tumor implant induced angiogenesis and reduced spontaneous metastases in 3 transplantable murine tumors (Furth-Columbia Wilms' tumor in Furth-Wistar rats, C-1300 neuroblastoma in A/J mice and HM-Kim mammary carcinoma in Wistar rats) but not in the NIH adenocarcinoma in Balb/c mice."3.68Studies on tumor induced angiogenesis. ( Ambrus, CM; Ambrus, JL; Forgach, P; Halpern, J; Niswander, P; Sayyid, S; Stadler, S; Toumbis, C, 1992)
"Pentoxifylline (Trental), a phosphodiesterase inhibitor with platelet aggregation inhibitory effect, was shown to decrease spontaneous metastases in a Wilms' tumor model in Furth-Wistar rats and in neuroblastoma C1300 in A/J mice."3.66Studies on platelet aggregation inhibitors in vivo. VIII. Effect of pentoxifylline on spontaneous tumor metastasis. ( Ambrus, JL; Cohen, H; Gastpar, H; Gordon, S; Murphy, GP; Sciandra, J; Williams, P; Witul, M, 1979)
" In the present experiment pentoxifylline appears to be a highly effective platelet aggregation inhibitor: a dose-response curve is apparent in monkey between 6 and 24 mg/kg i."1.26Effect of phosphodiesterase inhibitors on platelet aggregation and tumor metastasis. ( Ambrus, CM; Ambrus, JL; Gastpar, H, 1981)
