Article Title: | Enhancement of chemotherapeutically-induced apoptosis in vivo by biochemical modulation of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase |
Abstract: | An inhibitor of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase, 1,5-dihydroxyisoquinoline (DHIQ), evaluated in vivo against a murine advanced breast cancer, significantly improved by 20% the PR rate of tumor-regressing chemotherapy. A detailed sequential biochemical cascade is proposed for chemotherapy-induced apoptosis, and the rationale for the utilization of the inhibitor is explained. |
