Attenuation of diosgenin on FT-207 in tumor-bearing mice / 中成药

AIM: To observe the effects of diosgenin on enhancing efficacy and reducing toxicity of FT-207 in tumor-bearing mice. METHODS: The inhibitory rate on tumor growth and immune function of the in tumor-bearing mice model of transplanting MFC,HepA,H_22 and S_180 tumor were measured. RESULTS: Diosgenin had significant restraining effects on MFC in mouse.It could enhance the activity of macrophage and the level of serum hemolysin. CONCLUSION: Diosgenin can enhance the anti-tumor effect of FT-207.It can also improve the immunological function and reduce the adverse reactions of chemotherapy.
