Table IV.

Polyamine pools after treatment with Pt-spermine or Pd-spermine

Treatment Putrescine
(pmols/mg protein)		 Spermidine
(pmols/mg protein)		 Spermine
(pmols/mg protein)
Control 2,151±537 28,269±1,187 20,347±703
Pd-spermine 714±401 17,606±1,359 14,673±1,344
Pt-spermine 2,479±627 33,379±6,142 25,838±4,948

A2780 cells were treated with Pd-spermine or Pt-Spermine (10 μM ) for 20 h followed by 24 h in drug free medium. The cells were harvested thereafter and assayed for polyamine pools. Untreated cells were used as controls. Data are an average of 3 measurements.
