    Notes: The currently understood function for Ras in signal transduction is in mediating the transmission of signals from external growth factors to the cell nucleus. Mutated forms of this GTP-binding protein are found in 30% of human cancers with particularly high prevalence in colon and pancreatic carcinomas. These mutations destroy the GTPase activity of Ras and cause the protein to be locked in its active, GTP bound form. As a result, the signaling pathways are activated, leading to uncontrolled tumor growth. Ras function in signaling requires its association with the plasma membrane. This is achieved by posttranslational farnesylation of a cysteine residue present as part of the CA1A2X carboxyl terminal tetrapeptide of all Ras proteins. The enzyme that recognizes and farnesylates the CA1A2X sequence, Ras farnesyltransferase (FTase), has become an important target for the design of inhibitors that might be interesting as antitumor agents. Several approaches have been taken in the search for in vivo active inhibitors of farnesyltransferase. These include the identification of natural products such as the chaetomellic and zaragozic acids that mimic farnesylpyrophosphate, bisubstrate transition state analogs combining elements of the farnesyl and tetrapeptide substrates and peptidomimetics that reproduce features of the carboxyl terminal tetrapeptide CA1A2X sequence. This last group of compounds has been most successful in showing highly potent inhibition of FTase and selective blocking of Ras processing in a range of Ras transformed tumor cell lines at concentrations as low as 100 nM. Certain peptidomimetics will also block tumor growth in various mouse models, with apparently few toxic side effects. These results suggest that farnesyltransferase inhibitors hold considerable promise as anticancer drugs in the clinic. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopoly 43: 25-41, 1997

    Notes: The active ketenylidene-(2a) or thioketenylidenetriphenylphosphoranes (2b) react with 2-benzylidene-1,3-indandione (1), 5-benzylidenebarbituric acid (11), and 4-benzylidene-1,2-diphenyl-3,5-pyrazolidinedione (16) to give the corresponding pyranones and thioxopyranones (3a,b, 12a,b) and (17a,b), respectively. On the other hand, compounds 1 and 11 can be converted by reaction with the stabilized alkylidenephosphoranes 4a-e into the phosphoranylidenes 6a-e and 13a-e. Moreover, the oxaphosphinins 8 or 14 and the oxazaphosphinins 10 or 15 were obtained when compounds 1 and 11 were allowed to react with the phosphorane 7 and the iminophosphorane 9, respectively. Some of these new organophosphorus compounds are found to have insecticidal and molluscicidal properties against cotton leafworm Spodoptera littoralis larvae and Biomphalaria alexandrina snails. © 1997 John Wiley, & Sons, Inc.

    Description: Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) was found in the bone marrow dendritic cells of multiple myeloma patients but not in malignant plasma cells or bone marrow dendritic cells from normal individuals or patients with other malignancies. In addition the virus was detected in the bone marrow dendritic cells from two out of eight patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), a precursor to myeloma. Viral interleukin-6, the human homolog of which is a growth factor for myeloma, was found to be transcribed in the myeloma bone marrow dendritic cells. KSHV may be required for transformation from MGUS to myeloma and perpetuate the growth of malignant plasma cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rettig, M B -- Ma, H J -- Vescio, R A -- Pold, M -- Schiller, G -- Belson, D -- Savage, A -- Nishikubo, C -- Wu, C -- Fraser, J -- Said, J W -- Berenson, J R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 20;276(5320):1851-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Hematology and Oncology, Veterans Affairs West Los Angeles Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA 90073, USA.
