Use of polyamine transport system by polyamine anthracene conjugates in human leukaemic cells
Background It is well known that cancer cells have increased polyamine concentrations compared with normal cells. This relation is due to a combination of increased polyamine uptake via the polyamine transport system (PTS) as well as increased biosynthesis. Thus, we may be able to exploit the PTS...
