Calcium electroporation: The bioelectrochemical treatment of spontaneous equine skin tumors results in a local necrosis. Electrochemotherapy (ECT) is an anticancer bioelectrochemical therapy where electrical field pulses (electropermeabilization) increase intracellular concentration of antitumor drugs. The procedure is very effective against skin tumors. The restrictive regulations concerning anticancer drugs in veterinary medicine limit use of ECT. Electroporation with calcium (Electroporation Calcium Therapy)(ECaT) was proved to be effective in vivo on induced tumors in laboratory animals. This study evaluated the effects of ECaT in equine sarcoids (spontaneous skin tumors) on an animal cohort. Pulse parameter...
Dielectric properties of dipicrylamine-doped erythrocytes, cultured cells and lipid vesicles. Horse erythrocytes, murine lymphoblasts (L5178Y) and lipid vesicles that were treated with dipicrylamine (DPA) as a lipophilic ion were studied by dielectric spectroscopy over a frequency range of 10 Hz to 10 MHz. The DPA-treated cells and lipid vesicles showed low-frequency (LF) dielectric dispersion around 1-10 kHz in addition to β-dispersion due to the Maxwell-Wagner effect. The LF dispersion corresponds to that found in previous electrorotation (ROT) studies on DPA-treated cells, being due to the translocation of mobile ions in the plasma membranes. Analysis of the LF dispersion based on ...
Electrochemotherapy of horses. A preliminary clinical report. Sarcoids are skin spontaneous tumours detected in horses. It can be cured by chemotherapy by using cisplatin. A multisequence treatment must be performed. Problems are present due to the poor diffusion of the hydrophilic product in the tumours. Electropulsation is known to drastically enhance the effect of antitumoral drugs in vivo. Taking into account the very successful results of the group in Ljubljana (Slovenia), we started a research clinical program where electropulsation was applied after local cisplatin injection. The size of sarcoids is large (several centimeters). A specially designe...
