Abstract

The sensitivity of cells exposed in vitro to the antibiotics bleomycin or adriamycin is only mildly increased at 41 degrees over that seen at 37 degrees. However, at 43 degrees a marked synergism between the effects of hyperthermia and drug is observed. This synergism can also be demonstrated to occur in solid tumors in vivo. Cells after bleomycin exposure at 37 degrees repair potentially lethal damage, and 43 degrees inhibits this repair. This inhibition may in part account also for the observed sensitization of the cells to bleomycin, but not to adriamycin, since for the latter no repair can be demonstrated. However, fluorescence measurements show that at 43 degrees much more adriamycin is able to enter the cells than at 37 degrees. The possible implications of the results for cancer treatment are discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
