title: Effect of tranexamic acid on progress of experimental tumours and on DNA-synthesis.
abstract: The fibrinolytic inhibitor tranexamic acid affects certain experimental tumours; it prolongs survival (Lewis lung adenocarcinoma), decreases tumour weight (C3H breast carcinoma), and inhibits ascitic production (AH 130 rat hepatoma). However, it does not significantly influence DNA-synthesis in cell suspensions prepared from the same tumours.
