Abstract:
:The effect of deficiency of vitamin A and its supplementation on growth of murine sarcoma 180 was evaluated. The efficacy of cyclophosphamide under depleted and supplemented condition of the vitamin was also scrutinized. Supplemental vitamin A helped to check progression of tumour growth and also increased the effectiveness of chemotherapy. The action is possibly mediated through the host immune system.
