Trasylol (aprotinin) as an anti-tumour agent. 1978

D J Tweedie, and A W Thomson, and C H Horne

Growth of a syngeneic adenocarcinoma in C3H mice was investigated in animals receiving twice-daily subcutaneous injections of the antiprotease Trasylol. Development of primary tumours was not influenced by Trasylol treatment and the antiprotease did not affect concomitant ant--tumour immunity as assessed by resistance to secondary footpad challenge. From histological examination of tumours and a study of GVH (graft-versus-host) activity no evidence was gained that Trasylol treatment augments the host cellular immune response.

D007111 Immunity, Cellular Manifestations of the immune response which are mediated by antigen-sensitized T-lymphocytes via lymphokines or direct cytotoxicity. This takes place in the absence of circulating antibody or where antibody plays a subordinate role.

D007611 Aprotinin A single-chain polypeptide derived from bovine tissues consisting of 58 amino-acid residues. It is an inhibitor of proteolytic enzymes including CHYMOTRYPSIN; KALLIKREIN; PLASMIN; and TRYPSIN. It is used in the treatment of HEMORRHAGE associated with raised plasma concentrations of plasmin. It is also used to reduce blood loss and transfusion requirements in patients at high risk of major blood loss during and following open heart surgery with EXTRACORPOREAL CIRCULATION.
