File Description [top]

ExtraMED^TM presents a unique perspective on the much-neglected biomedical literature of the developing countries. Use File 467 to make a quick check of alternative literature, which may contain unexpected and often unique information. ExtraMED was developed to serve as an important new global research and diagnostic tool.

ExtraMED was created in 1993 on the initiative of the World Health Organization (WHO), which brought together the publishers of over 290 biomedical journals from all over the world into the ExtraMED Consortium. Most of the articles found in File 467 are not included in major European and U.S. indexing sources, making ExtraMED a particulary valuable source of information.

The file provides all the abstracts and bibliographic data from the WHO initiative. Articles provide a unique perspective on all health and biomedical topics. The full-text articles are available individually from DIALOG SourceOne^SM document delivery service.

	`DIALOG(R)File 467:ExtraMed`
	`(c) 1996 Informania Ltd. All rts. reserv.`

/TI	`Induction of Erythroid Differentiation of Human`
	`Erythroleukemia K-562 Cells by Mutactimycin`

JN=, PY=	`Journal of Chinese Pharmaceutical Sciences. 1995, Vol. 4,`

	`LANGUAGE: English ISSN: 1003-1057`

/AB	`Mutactimycin, a new anthracycline antibiotic, consists of`
	`5 components: mutactimycin A, B, C, D and`
	`7-deoxymutactimycinone A. Mutactimycin components differ`
	`from each other in suppressing proliferation and inducing`
	`differentiation of human erythro-leukemia K-5 62 cells.`
	`Determined by benzidine staining, the percentage of K-562`
	`cells with hemoglobin expression was 86% by mutactimycin C.`
	`The peak percentage of benzidine positive cells appeared on`
	`day 5 or 6. The differentiated cells were partially reversed`
	`after drug removal. The induced cells lost the clonogenicity`
	`in soft-agar. The kinetics of differentiation induced by`
	`mutactimycin C, in comparison with other known anthracycline`
	`antibiotics, was similar to that by doxorubicin, epirubicin`
	`and daunorubicin. Mutactimycin C was more active than`
	`aclarubicsin A. The structure- activity relationship for`
	`mutactimycin components suggested that the substituting`
	`groups on C3, C11, and the saccharide on C7 might be`
	`important for their activities.`
