suramin and Experimental Hepatoma

suramin has been researched along with Experimental Hepatoma in 5 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
"A new therapeutic strategy for treating metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has entailed the use of antiangiogenic agents such as suramin, BB-94 (Batimastat), TNP-470, and carboxyamido-triazole (CAI, a synthetic inhibitor of non-excitable calcium channels that reversibly inhibits angiogenesis)."1.30Effect of antiangiogenic agents on experimental animal models of hepatocellular carcinoma.
