Abstract
The effect of chronic ethanol intake on the growth and spread of some murine tumors was investigated. The treatment had no effect on the B16 melanoma but tended to decrease the number of Ehrlich ascites cells. In the case of the Lewis lung carcinoma, administration of ethanol for 2 wk tended to lower the number of metastases to the lung without significantly affecting the primary tumor size, whereas more prolonged ethanol intake decreased the weight of the primary tumor in addition to decreasing its dissemination.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
