Abstract: A method of treatment of a host with a cellular proliferative disease, comprising contacting the host with a cephalotaxine and an antiproliferative agent, each in an amount sufficient to modulate said cellular proliferative disease, is described. In some embodiments, the cephalotaxine comprises homoharringtonine (cephalotaxine, 4-methyl-2-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxy-4-methyl pentyl) butanediocate ester). Antiproliferative agents of the invention comprise alkylating agents, intercalating agents, metal coordination complexes, pyrimidine nucleosides, purine nucleosides, inhibitors of nucleic acid associated enzymes and proteins, and agents affecting structural proteins and cytoplasmic enzymes.

Abstract: Thrombin is now known to mediate a number of potent biological effects on cells bearing high-affinity thrombin receptors. These effects depend, at least in part, upon receptor occupancy signals generated by thrombin's interaction with the high affinity thrombin receptor. The present inventors have formulated synthetic thrombin derivatives capable of selectively stimulating or inhibiting thrombin receptor occupancy signals. The stimulatory thrombin derivatives to bind to cell surface thrombin receptors and stimulate DNA synthesis in cells treated with non-mitogenic concentrations of alpha-thrombin or phorbol myristate acetate. Thus, these peptides, which have both a thrombin receptor binding domain and a segment of amino acids with a sequence common to a number of serine proteases, appear to generate receptor-occupancy dependent mitogenic signals.
