Enhancement of antitumour activity and structure-activity study of bioreductive agents

DT-diaphorase is a two-electron reducing enzyme that activates the bioreductive antitumour agent, mitomycin C (MMC). Cell lines having elevated levels of DT-diaphorase are generally more sensitive to MMC. This study demonstrates that induction of DT-diaphorase can increase the cytotoxic activity of...
