Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Because esophageal cancer initiation by NMBA is very rapid in ZD rats, this study determined whether DFMO is effective in preventing esophageal carcinogenesis when administered after the establishment of a carcinogenic environment."1.31Alpha-difluoromethylornithine induction of apoptosis: a mechanism which reverses pre-established cell proliferation and cancer initiation in esophageal carcinogenesis in zinc-deficient rats. ( Fong, LY; Magee, PN; Nguyen, VT; Pegg, AE, 2001)
