The effect of melatonin on inhibition of cell growth was studied in CT-26, a murine colon carcinoma-derived cell line. Cells growing in exponential phase were exposed to low (10(-7)-10(-10) M) and high doses (1, 2 and 3 x 10(-3) M) of melatonin during 24 h. Synthesis of DNA was measured by 5-bromo-2

In previous studies, N-(N'-acetyl-L-propyl)-N-nitrosoglycine (APNG) has been shown to be a potent mutagen in a variety of genotoxicity assays and a carcinogen in a limited cancer study. APNG decomposes to a carboxymethyldiazonium ion, which can also be generated from potassium diazoacetate (KDA). KD
Polyethylene glycol (PEG 8000) is a potent cancer chemopreventive agent. This osmotic laxative polymer markedly suppresses colon cancer in rats. To explain the mechanism, we have tested the in vitro effect of PEG on four human cell lines. Two poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma lines (HT29 and COLO
A culture system that identifies the precursor of murine bone marrow fibroblastic stromal cells (stroma-initiating cells, SIC) has been developed. In this system, mature fibroblasts are depleted by adherence to plastic dishes and the nonadherent cells are seeded at a low density, which results in th
## Background: Aspirin is widely used as a preventive measure against occlusive vascular diseases. since the age group in which aspirin use has become prevalent is similar to the one presenting with prostate cancer, we decided to examine the potential effects of aspirin on prostate cancer. ## Meth
