Correlation of the clinical response to chemotherapy in breast cancer with ex vivo chemosensitivity.

abstract：:This study examined the growth inhibitory effects of combining 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (calcitriol) with retinoic acid or dexamethasone against cultured breast and ovarian carcinoma cells. Retinoic acid (12.5-50 nM) increased the effectiveness of calcitriol (12.5-50 nM) against MCF-7 and NIH:OVCAR3 cells, with synerg...
