Abstract:
:Interleukin-1 alpha induced an increase in both the cellular accumulation of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (cisplatin) and DNA platination and significantly reduced the removal of platinum from DNA of human ovarian (NIH: OVCAR-3) carcinoma cells in culture. The combinations of IL-1 alpha and cisplatin were highly synergistic against these ovarian carcinoma cells and maximum levels of sensitization (15-20-fold) were observed during simultaneous exposure of cisplatin and IL-1 alpha. IL-1 alpha specific receptor antagonist decreased this synergy. These results strongly indicate that IL-1 alpha inhibits DNA repair, and this inhibition of DNA repair may explain, in part, a strong synergistic interaction between IL-1 alpha and cisplatin in NIH: OVCAR-3 cells.

abstract::Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) is recognized as a physiologic mediator produced in a variety of tissues. It is produced by three enzymes, cystathionine β-synthase (CBS), cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3MST). However, the regulation of H(2)S production by CSE has not well been understoo...
