[Cytochemical analysis of polyamines in Ehrlich ascitic carcinoma cells during different phases of mitotic cycle under the effects of difluoromethylornithine].
Mice bearing Ehrlich carcinoma cells received one 80 mg/kg dose of DFMO. After 20 hours the cells were extracted from the peritoneal cavity and separated by means of sedimentation of 1 g in saccharose gradient into 9 fractions depending on the mitotic cycle phase. The content of polyamines in the cells of each fraction was detected by the fluorescent method using fluorescamine. It was shown that the tumor cells during G1 phase mitotic cycle (13-15% cells blocked) and especially cells in the 1st half of S-phase (19-23% cells blocked) were most sensitive to inhibitory effect of DFMO.
