title: [Effects of the cis-dichloro-diammino-platinum(II)-deoxyribonucleic acid on normal and cancerous cells].
abstract: The effects of cis-dichloro-diammino-platinum(II) (cis-Pt) bound to DNA have been compared to those of free cis-Pt in mouse Ehrlich tumour cells, in peritoneal macrophages and in chick embryo fibroblasts cultivated in vitro. Cis-Pt has no antimitotic activity anymore when linked to DNA. This would be due to the fact that free cis-Pt is not released from cis-Pt-DNA complex inside lysosomes.
