In the first part of this paper, various chemotherapies were performed against oligodendrogliomas subcutaneously transplanted in to nude mice. Vincristine (VCR), adriamycin, and 1000 rads irradiation were effective against this tumors. Concerning these two drugs, dose response effect was observed. And the effect of 1 mg/kg injection of VCR roughly corresponded to that of five weekly injections of 0.2 mg/kg. In the second part of this experiment, single or combined effects of VCR and immunotherapeutic agents including OK-432 (OK), PSK, and recombinant leucocytic interferon (IFN) were examined. Two glioma lines including oligodendroglioma and glioblastoma were used. Following results were obtained from this experiment: 1) Effect of OK and VCR against oligodendrogliomas were as follows: control less than OK local injection (Local) less than OK intraperitoneal injection (IP); VCR; OK (IP X 2) less than VCR + OK(IP) less than VCR + OK (IP X 2). Effects of OK and VCR were expressed in order of their effects against glioblastomas: control less than VCR less than OK (IP); OK(IP X 2); OK(Local) less than VCR + OK (IP); VCR + OK (IP X 2). Effects of PSK and VCR against glioblastomas were as follows: control; PSK (Local) less than VCR less than VCR + PSK (Local) less than VCR + PSK (IP). Effects of IFN and VCR against oligodendrogliomas were as follows: control; IFN (IP) less than VCR less than IFN (Local) less than VCR + IFN (IP); VCR + IFN (Local). Effects of IFN and VCR against glioblastomas were as follows: control less than IFN (IP) less than VCR; IFN (Local); VCR + IFN (IP).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

D009837 Oligodendroglioma A relatively slow-growing glioma that is derived from oligodendrocytes and tends to occur in the cerebral hemispheres, thalamus, or lateral ventricle. They may present at any age, but are most frequent in the third to fifth decades, with an earlier incidence peak in the first decade. Histologically, these tumors are encapsulated, relatively avascular, and tend to form cysts and microcalcifications. Neoplastic cells tend to have small round nuclei surrounded by unstained nuclei. The tumors may vary from well-differentiated to highly anaplastic forms.

D005910 Glioma Benign and malignant central nervous system neoplasms derived from glial cells (i.e., astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and ependymocytes). Astrocytes may give rise to astrocytomas (ASTROCYTOMA) or glioblastoma multiforme (see GLIOBLASTOMA). Oligodendrocytes give rise to oligodendrogliomas (OLIGODENDROGLIOMA) and ependymocytes may undergo transformation to become EPENDYMOMA; CHOROID PLEXUS NEOPLASMS; or colloid cysts of the third ventricle.
