Aromatic retinoid Ro 40-8757 reduces immunotoxicities of cyclophosphamide as revealed by immunohistochemical staining of lymphoid tissues and general pathologic examinations.
Abstract:The aromatic retinoid (arotinoid) Ro 40-8757 (4-[2-[p-(E)-2-(5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-2-naphthyl) propenyl]phenoxy]ethyl]-morpholine), a compound with antitumor activities, has been studied in a combination therapy with the cytostatic antitumor drug cyclophosphamide (CPA), and was found to protect bone marrow from the toxic effects of CPA. To evaluate its protective effects against CPA toxicities on lymphoid systems, we treated BDF1 mice with Ro 40-8757 orally for 1 to 5 weeks in combination with… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
