Abstract
The effect of trans-retinoic acid on the growth of P388 lymphoid tumors in inbred female DBA/2 mice in the presence or absence of interferon (IFN) treatment was studied. This acid derivative of vitamin A enhanced local tumor growth. trans-Retinoic acid also partially reversed IFN protection against tumor growth and mortality.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
