    Notes: Abstract Irinotecan (CPT-11) is active against a broad range of human cancer. One of the side-effects of irinotecan is a strong diarrhoea. In order to investigate the mechanism underlying this diarrhoea, the effect of irinotecan on anion secretion across the isolated rat distal colon was studied. Irinotecan caused a concentration-dependent increase in short-circuit current (Isc). The increase in Isc was completely dependent on the presence of Cl− ions and was supressed by furosemide and the Cl− channel blocker NPPB (5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoate), indicating that it is caused by a Cl− secretion. The secretory response was inhibited by indomethacin, 1-benzylimidazole, a thromboxane synthase inhibitor, and SK&F 88046 ((N,N′bis-[7-(3-Chlorobenzeneaminosulfonyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolyl)disulfonylimide), a thromboxane A2 receptor blocker. In isolated crypts irinotecan had no effect on the membrane potential. Consequently, the secretion induced by irinotecan is an indirect one, caused by the stimulation of eicosanoid production, e.g. thromboxane A2, in the subepithelial tissue.

    Notes: Abstract To clarify the extent of cell lineage involvement in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), we investigated the bcr gene rearrangement and clonality using the X-chromosome-linked restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) methylation method in T lymphocytes and granulocytes. We examined the granulocyte and T-cell fractions from the peripheral blood of seven female patients with CML during the chronic phase; patients were heterozygous for RFLPs at the phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) or the hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) gene. RFLP-methylation analysis of granulocytes demonstrated a monoclonal pattern in six of the seven patients and a rearrangedbcr gene in all seven patients. In contrast, T lymphocytes exhibited a polyclonal pattern in six cases; in one case, a faint band was observed following methyl-sensitive enzyme cleavage. Thebcr gene analysis in T lymphocytes showed the germline in every case. Our results indicate that the majority of T lymphocytes are polyclonal during the chronic phase of CML and confirm previous reports based on glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, cytogenetic, andbcr rearrangement analyses.
