Abstract:e13005 Background: Gemcitabine has a very modest potency to penetrate blood-brain barrier (BBB). So far it's therapeutic activity in intracranial tumors is unknown. Methods: we explored the effect of gemcitabine (G) on overall survival in models of intracranial Ehrlich's tumor and lymphosarcoma LIO-1. As a comparison for the investigation group we've chosen drugs with different ability to penetrate into brain. We injected BCNU (50 mg/kg), cyclophosphamide (C) (150 mg/kg) and CDDP (9 mg/kg) intraperitoneally o… Show more
