Efficacy of Deguelin and Silibinin on Benzo(a)pyrene-Induced Lung Tumorigenesis in A/J Mice [PDF]
We evaluated deguelin and silibinin in A/J mice treated with the tobacco-specific carcinogen benzo(a)pyrene (BP) for their ability to inhibit pulmonary adenoma formation and growth. Animals were treated with either deguelin (5.0 or 10.0 mg/kg body weight,
