[Lethal effect of glucose load on tumor cells in hypoxia]. 1987

The in vitro treatment of the Ehrlich ascites tumour (EAT) cells with glucose for 15 and 60 min under hypoxic conditions leads to a decrease in their survival by a factor of 10(2) and 10(4). Glucose load is ineffective under normal oxygenation. The mass destruction of EAT cells under the influence of glucose takes place within the first 24 hours in the interphase. The lethal effect of different pH values on EAT cells is independent of the way by which the given pH value was reached (glucose load or phosphate buffer). The same values of pH lead to the same effect on EAT cells. The lethal effect markedly increased when the value of pH was lower than 5.6. It is concluded that the lethal effect of the glucose load is due to self acidification of EAT cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010100 Oxygen An element with atomic symbol O, atomic number 8, and atomic weight [15.99903; 15.99977]. It is the most abundant element on earth and essential for respiration. Dioxygen,Oxygen-16,Oxygen 16
D010101 Oxygen Consumption The rate at which oxygen is used by a tissue; microliters of oxygen STPD used per milligram of tissue per hour; the rate at which oxygen enters the blood from alveolar gas, equal in the steady state to the consumption of oxygen by tissue metabolism throughout the body. (Stedman, 25th ed, p346) Consumption, Oxygen,Consumptions, Oxygen,Oxygen Consumptions
