title: Experiments on the influence of an aromatic retinoid on the chemical carcinogenesis in rats by butyl-butanol-nitrosamine and 1,2-dimethylhydrazine.
abstract: In male Sprague-Dawley rats it was tested whether the induction of carcinomas of the bladder by butyl-butanol-nitrosamine (BBN) and the induction of carcinomas of the colon by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) could be influenced by an aromatic retinoid ethyl-allyl-trans-9-(4-methoxy-2,3,6-trimethylphenyl)-3,7-dimethyl-2,4,6,8-nonatetraenoate (RO 10-9359). Neither an inhibitory nor an enhancing effect of the retinoid on carcinogenesis was observed.
