Cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide, with breast cancer one tumors highest incidence in Brazil, an estimated 57,120 new cases 2014. Several forms treatment and control symptoms has been studied, among them homeopathy. In Banerji clinic India, doctors have used a protocol consisting 4 homeopathic medicines relevant results that motivated this study. our research Ehrlich tumor w...

The E2 hypotetraploid Ehrlich ascites tumor reached its peak size at 1 X IO9 cells on the 14th day after i.p. inoculation of 0.30 X 10* cells. During this period the % nonviable Ehrlich ascites tumor cells did not change. Autoradiographic studies during the first 14 days of Ehrlich ascites tumor growth dem onstrated no decrease in the % tumor cells incorporating tritiated uridine, proline, phen...

AIM To evaluate antitumor effect of plant polyphenol extracts from green tea, red wine lees and/or lemon peel alone and in combination with antitumor drugs on the growth of different transplanted tumors in experimental animals. MATERIALS AND METHODS Green tea extract (GTE) was prepared from green tea infusion. GTE-based composites of red wine (GTRW), lemon peel (GTRWL) and/or NanoGTE as well ...

In a long-term study of 2 sublines of the Ehrlich ascites tumor, one maintained in male mice and the other in females, significantly less growth occurred with the tumor from male donors when tested in mice of either sex. In addition, significantly less growth occurred in male than in female mice inoculated with tumor from either subline; the 2 effects, due to the sex of the donor and to the sex...

Although the phenomenon of acquired resistance has come to play a major role in studies of mechanism of ac tion and in the design of new chemotherapeutic agents, the development of knowledge about collateral sensitivity has received far less attention. Yet this feature of the complex changes which accompany conversion to drug resistance is potentially of importance to chemotherapy, as well as t...

We present a unified description of interface kinetic effects in phase-field models for isothermal transformations in binary alloys and steps dynamics in molecular-beam-epitaxy. The phase-field equations of motion incorporate a kinetic cross-coupling between the phase field and the concentration field. This cross-coupling generalizes the phenomenology of kinetic effects and was omitted until re...

The primary screen for potential carcinostatic agents currently used in these laboratories employs in vivo tests against four ascites tumors. Among ascites tumors, as among solid tumors, individual tumor types show specific and differing profiles of sensitivity. The "collective" sensitivity of the four ascites tumors used here covers a wide range of known carcinostatic agents, as shown in Table...

The rate of glucose utilization by cells is known to be influenced by various environmental factors. The effects of hormones, such as insulin, and of drugs, such as 2,Pdinitrophenol, on carbohydrate metabolism have received considerable attention. A vast amount of literature has accumulated on the suppression of fermentation in the presence of air. However, information on the intracellular pace...

The effect of nitrous oxide on the growth of two types of ascites tumour in mice was investigated. The mice in the first two trials were injected with tumour cells, divided into three groups and exposed to one of the following atmospheres: (1) air; (2) 25% nitrous oxide; (3) 40% nitrous oxide. After treatment, the volume of ascites fluid and the concentration of cells were measured. It was foun...
