suramin and Carcinoma, Epidermoid

suramin has been researched along with Carcinoma, Epidermoid in 9 studies

Suramin: A polyanionic compound with an unknown mechanism of action. It is used parenterally in the treatment of African trypanosomiasis and it has been used clinically with diethylcarbamazine to kill the adult Onchocerca. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1992, p1643) It has also been shown to have potent antineoplastic properties.
suramin : A member of the class of phenylureas that is urea in which each of the amino groups has been substituted by a 3-({2-methyl-5-[(4,6,8-trisulfo-1-naphthyl)carbamoyl]phenyl}carbamoyl)phenyl group. An activator of both the rabbit skeletal muscle RyR1 and sheep cardiac RyR2 isoform ryanodine receptor channels, it has been used for the treatment of human African trypanosomiasis for over 100 years.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Suramin is a polyanionic agent which has been found to be an effective antineoplastic agent against various human tumors including adrenal, renal and prostatic cancer, and osteosarcoma."5.29Suramin suppresses hypercalcemia and osteoclastic bone resorption in nude mice bearing a human squamous cancer. ( Boyce, BF; Dunstan, C; Mundy, GR; Rhine, C; Williams, P; Yoneda, T, 1995)
"Since human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma expresses abundant epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) and proliferates in an autocrine and paracrine manner, it was expected that suramin inhibits tumor growth by disrupting EGFR."1.30Effect of suramin on human esophageal cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. ( Kamikawa, Y; Naomoto, Y; Orita, K; Shin, R; Tanaka, N, 1997)
