title: The in vivo inhibition of tumor growth by ruthenium red: its relationship with the metabolism of calcium in the tumor.
abstract: Ruthenium red shows antitumor activity on experimental tumors. This growth inhibition seems to be related with the impairment of Ca-2+ transport both at the mitochondrial and at the cell membrane level. A sex influence modifying this inhibition and the systemic effects has been observed.
