Sesamin (a lignan present in sesame oil) is reported to specifically inhibit D5 desaturation and the formation of arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) from dihomogamma-linolenic acid (20:3n-6) in cell free extracts. In this study the effects of sesamin have been evaluated on cell cultures derived from canine

BACKGROUND. Retinoic acid (RA) is recognized as an inhibitor of tumorigenesis, but conversely, has also been shown to act as a tumor enhancer, therefore its role in prostate tumor cell growth was investigated. METHODS. The response of two human prostate tumor cell lines (PC-3 and DU-145), and cell l
## Abstract Agglutination by two lectins, Concanavalin A (Con A) and Ricinus communis agglutinin (RCA), has been investigated in a human lymphoid cell system. The main conclusions of this study are: (1) no systematic correlation exists between the neoplastic state and sensitivity to Con A or RCA; (
