Method for selective methionine starvation of malignant cells in mammals
摘要:
An improved method for chemotherapy of mammalian malignant cells which have an absolute requirement for methionine but lack methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAse). The method comprises detection of MTAse negative cells in a mammal, administration of methionine .gamma.-lyase in sufficient amounts to reduce the volume of MTAse negative cells in the mammal, and co-administration of methylthioadenosine in amounts sufficient to ensure the continued availability of methionine to the mammal's non-malignant cells. Means for detection of MTAse negative cells are provided. Means for production and use of recombinant chemotherapeutic agents are also provided.
