Abstract
Examined were effects of calmodulin antagonists (W-5 and W-7) on proliferation of two kinds of human cell lines, designated HR and KF, derived from serous cystadecarcinoma of the ovary. Although both W-5 and W-7 inhibited their cell proliferation in vitro, the degree of inhibition was more marked with W-5 rather than with W-7. HR cells had higher sensitivity to cisplatinum than KF cells, while KF cells had higher sensitivity to adriamycin. Combinations of calmodulin antagonists and anticancer drugs resulted in adjuvant effects with regard to the inhibition of their cell proliferation in vitro.
