title: [Enhancement by sodium butyrate of the cytotoxic effect of methotrexate on leukemic cells].
abstract: Sodium butyrate at a concentration of 1 x 10(-3) M or lower seems to decrease the rate of cellular proliferation through the cell cycle in G 1 phase. This effect makes them more sensitive to the cytotoxic action of moderate doses of methotrexate.
