| Research Abstract |
1. We found that 20 species of the anisotropic inhibitors of energy transductionin mitochondria, which are membrane-side specific inhibitors in mitochondrial inner membrane, had a lethal effect on both exponentially growl and, stationary phases of P388 and Sarcoma 180 cancer cells.
2. TZ3-4 and TZ3-13 had a dramatical effect on decreasing Sarcoma 180 transplanted into mice.
3. We developed a preparation method of intact mitochondria from human breast cancer (MX-1).
4. We demonstrated that cisplatin selectively inhibited the respiration in mitochondria prepared from human breast cancer (MX-1), but not those activities in mitochondria prepared from normal rat liver and heart.
The present findings indicate an extremely important possibility of development of selective toxic anticancer drug targeting human breast cancer'mitochondria.
