Effects of somatostatin analogs octreotide and lanreotide on the proliferation and apoptosis in colon 38 tumor: interaction with 5-fluorouracil.
: OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of two somatostatin (SS) analogs: octreotide and lanreotide administered separately or together with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) with the action of 5-FU alone, on proliferation, apoptosis, proliferation/apoptosis (P/A) ratio and tumor weight in the murine transplantable Colon 38 c.....
