Title:
Bistramide A‐induced irreversible arrest of cell proliferation in a non‐small‐cell bronchopulmonary carcinoma is similar to induction of terminal maturation
Description:
<jats:p><jats:bold>Summary—</jats:bold> Bistramide A, a new toxin isolated from a New Caledonian Urochordata, shows an antiproliferative effect on a non‐small‐cell lung carcinoma line <jats:italic>in vitro</jats:italic> and G1‐blockade. In this work, the growth arrest induced by bistramide A was shown to be irreversible as assessed by growth kinetics of pretreated cells. Furthermore, the drug caused an underexpression of the nuclear antigen Ki67. These events are similar to a G1‐differentiation cell cycle step blockage and a terminal maturation induction.</jats:p>
