Destruction of human solid tumors by alkyl lysophospholipids. 1980

M H Runge, and R Andreesen, and A Pfleiderer, and P G Munder

Alkyl lysophospholipids (ALP) are synthetic analogs of the naturally occurring 2-lysophosphatidylcholine. The effect of ALP on the proliferation of 22 different gynecologic malignant tumors in humans was studied in vitro. ALP caused progressive death of tumor cells over 24-96 hours. In addition, tumor specimens from the tested human tumors were xenotransplanted into NMRI nude mice. ALP induced a highly significant retardation of the in vivo growing human tumors. Neither oral nor iv administration of these compounds caused any recognizable side effects.

D010743 Phospholipids Lipids containing one or more phosphate groups, particularly those derived from either glycerol (phosphoglycerides see GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS) or sphingosine (SPHINGOLIPIDS). They are polar lipids that are of great importance for the structure and function of cell membranes and are the most abundant of membrane lipids, although not stored in large amounts in the system.
