Comparison of serum interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels between normal volunteers and patients with advanced melanoma.

Abstract:

:Melanoma is an immunoresponsive malignancy. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a potent regulator of immunosuppression. The purpose of this research was to define the relationship of serum IL-10 to survival in patients with metastatic melanoma. Forty-one melanoma patients and 50 normal volunteers were analyzed. The median IL-10 level as determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in melanoma patients was 8.75 pg/ml compared to < 3.0 pg/ml in normal volunteers (p = 0.0001). Survival of melanoma patients with an IL-10 level above 10.0 pg/ml was 365 days compared to 557 days in patients with IL-10 levels less than 10.0 pg/ml (p = 0.0259, Wilcoxon). Elevated IL-10 levels were correlated with poor survival.

  • Arsenic trioxide causes redistribution of cell cycle, caspase activation, and GADD expression in human colonic, breast, and pancreatic cancer cells.

    abstract::Arsenic trioxide is valuable for treatment of promyelocytic leukemia, but less attention has been paid to its therapeutic potential for other cancers. In this study, the effects of arsenic trioxide were tested in human pancreatic (AsPC-1), colonic (HT-29), and breast (MCF-7) cancer cells. In all three cancer cell line...
