The role of polyamines in interferon and retinoic acid mediated synergistic antiproliferative action.

Abstract:

:Retinoic acid alone has no effect on the human breast cancer cell line BT-20 but can amplify the antiproliferative action of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). In our system ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity correlates well with growth rate; it was investigated whether the antiproliferative effects of IFN-gamma and IFN-gamma plus retinoic acid could be attributed to suppression of ODC activity. The ODC inhibitor difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), which is active as a single agent did not enhance growth inhibition induced by the biological response modifiers. The substitution of the BT-20 cells with putrescine, the product of the enzymatic reaction mediated by ODC, reversed DFMO induced antiproliferative action. On the other hand putrescine did not affect the proliferation of BT-20 cells treated with interferon alone or in combination with retinoic acid.
