- W2094966342 abstract "SummaryScheduling of chemotherapy is limited by damage to normal tissues, and tolerated schedules are dependent on normal tissue recovery. Most anticancer drugs are more toxic to proliferating cells and the fall and recovery of granulocyte counts after chemotherapy may be explained by the effect of drugs on rapidly proliferating precursor cells in the bone marrow. It is argued that serious toxicity due to myelosuppression most often occurs because of damage to proliferating precursors that may be recognized in bone marrow rather than to stem cells. In contrast, therapy that is aimed at producing cure or long-term remission of tumours must be directed at killing tumour stem cells. The evidence that tumours contain a limited population of cells which can repopulate the tumour after treatment (and are therefore tumour stem cells) is reviewed critically. While there is quite strong evidence for a limited population of target cells, evidence from studies on metastases suggests that the tumour cells which may express this stem cell property may change with time. The stem cell concept has major implications for predictive assays. Although colony-forming assays appear to have a sound biological background for predicting tumour response, technical problems prevent them from being used routinely in patient management.Cells in tumours are known to be heterogeneous and at least three types of heterogeneity may influence tumour response to drug treatment: the development of subclones with differing properties including drug resistance; variation in cellular properties due to differentiation during clonal expansion; and variation in properties due to nutritional status and micro-anatomy. Heterogeneity in drug distribution within solid tumours may occur because of limited drug penetration from blood vessels, and nutrient-deprived cells in solid tumours may be expected to escape the toxicity of some anticancer drugs as well as being resistant to radiation because of hypoxia. This may occur both because nutrient-deprived cells have a low rate of cell proliferation, and also because of poor drug penetration to them. There is a need for improved understanding of the mechanisms that lead to cell death in tumours. If these mechanisms were understood, it might be possible to simulate them by therapeutic manoeuvres. Recent research from our laboratory suggests that the combination of low extracellular pH and hypoxia may be very toxic to cells in nutrient-deprived regions. Drugs which limit the cell's ability to survive in regions of acid pH may provide strategy for therapy of nutrient-deprived cells." @default.
