title: Potentiation of antitumor effects of cisplatin by tumor necrosis factor-beta.
abstract: Recombinant tumor necrosis factor-beta potentiated the inhibitory effect of cisplatin on intramuscularly transplanted GA-1 tumor and liver metastasis in mice. The antitumor effect was related to cytotoxic and cytostatic activities of the test preparations rather than to initiation of apoptosis.
