Asparaginase is an enzyme that is used as a medication and in food manufacturing. [6] [7] As a medication, L-asparaginase is used to treat acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL). [6] It is given by injection into a vein, or muscle. [6] A pegylated version is also available. [8] In food manufacturing it is used to ...
Non-small cell lung cancer, oesophageal cancer, uterine cervical cancer, head and neck cancer and urothelial cancer: Nephrotoxicity, myelosuppression and nausea and vomiting (30-90%). Oxaliplatin: IV: Reacts with DNA, inducing apoptosis, non-cell cycle specific. Colorectal cancer, oesophageal cancer and gastric cancer
[2] [5] As a result, L-asparaginase is a common chemotherapy drug utilized in the treatment of ALL and may have applications in other asparagine synthetase negative cancers, such as lymphomas, due to its aspariginase activity to deplete serum asparagine. [9]
In a 2019 survey cited in the advisory, just 45% of Americans said they were aware alcohol was a risk factor for cancer, compared to 91% for radiation exposure, 89% for tobacco use, 81% for ...
Calaspargase pegol is an engineered protein consisting of the E. coli-derived enzyme L-asparaginase II conjugated with succinimidyl carbonate monomethoxypolyethylene glycol . [6] The L-asparaginase portion hydrolyzes L-asparagine to L-aspartic acid depriving the tumor cell of the L-asparagine it needs for survival. [6]
An alkylating antineoplastic agent is an alkylating agent used in cancer treatment that attaches an alkyl group (C n H 2n+1) to DNA. [1] Since cancer cells, in general, proliferate faster and with less error-correcting than healthy cells, cancer cells are more sensitive to DNA damage—such as being alkylated. Alkylating agents are used to ...
