The efficiency of combinations of cytostatics cisplatin and adriamycin with antioxidant sodium 3-(3'-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propyl thiosulfate (TS-13), and nitric oxide (NO) donor NaNO was evaluated on two drug-resistant strains of leukemia P388 with changed redox-status of cells. Simultaneous use of both NO donor and TS-13 in combinations with the cytostatics did not increase the efficiency of therapy. In addition, antioxidant activity of TS-13, NaNO, and their combinations was studied by the method of luminol-dependent chemiluminescence on the model systems with the use of the homogenized cells of sensitive strain and two drug-resistant strains of leukemia P388. It was shown that TS-13 and NO donor produced opposite effects: TS-13 decreased, while NO donor increased the content of free radicals in the model system. Combinations of antioxidant TS-13 and NO donor should be used with consideration for the redox-status of tumor treated.

Two new benzene-containing polyketides, cryptoic acids A (1) and B (2), along with a new acylated diketopiperazine designated cyclocryptamide (3), were isolated from the culture extract of Cryptosporangium sp. YDKA-T02. The absolute configuration of amino acid components in 3 was determined by Marfey's method.

Two new spirotetronate class compounds designated wychimicins E (1) and F (2) were isolated from the culture extract of an actinomycete Cryptosporangium sp. RD061707. Their structures were determined through extensive NMR analysis in comparison with wychimicin C.

Sporangimicins A-D (1-4), four anomeric pairs of diacyl disaccharides that represent a new metabolite class, were discovered from the culture extract of an actinomycete Pseudosporangium sp. RD061809. Compounds 1-4 caused peak separation in the HPLC chromatogram and partial duplication of the NMR resonances by anomeric interconversion of a maltose core modified at the two sugar 6-positions with an isobutanoyl and a methyl-branched long-chain dienoyl groups.

We studied the expression of Nrf2 transcription factor and antioxidant system proteins in drug-resistant murine leukemia strains P388 in vivo, as well as the redox status of cells under conditions of induced oxidative stress. Immunoblotting and real-time PCR showed that the cyclophosphamide-resistant strain P388 (P388/CP) exhibits Nrf2-mediated drug resistance. Cells of the P388/CP strain are characterized by high expression of Nrf2, which leads to a significant increase in the expression of ARE genes and antioxidant system proteins, as well as to the effective maintenance of redox homeostasis under conditions of induced oxidative stress.
