[Possibilities of immunostimulation in oncology. I. In vitro functional activity of rat peritoneal macrophages in presence of tranexamic acid].
Peritoneal macrophages from Wistar rats were examined in vitro to evaluate the effects of tranexamic acid on their spreading activity. The results suggested that some concentrations of the drug (10(-5), 10(-6)) may activate in vitro the function of the peritoneal adherent cells. This finding support the concept that tranexamic acid enhances host resistance by a mechanism to be elucidated.
