title: Potentiation of anticancer effect of carboquone in vivo by glucose pretreatment.
abstract: Anticancer effect of carboquone was notably potentiated in tumor-bearing mice when they were pretreated with 5% glucose solution in the system of blood flow-interrupting hyperthermic chemotherapy. It was further found by quantitative analysis that the potentiation was much greater than increase in the general toxicity of the drug by administration of glucose. Mitomycin-C, on the other hand, revealed no such marked effect though it is considerably similar to carboquone in chemical structure.
