title: [Influence of dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene on 1,2 dimethylhydrazine-induced androgen-dependent renal capsule angiosarcoma development].
abstract: The study was concerned with the influence of dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (p,p'-DDE) on 1,2 dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced androgen-dependent renal capsule angiosarcoma (RCA) in male CBA mice. p,p'-DDE was shown to significantly decrease the incidence of DMH-induced RCA (69.0% vs. 44.1%). That could be accounted for by the anti-androgen affinity of p,p'-DDE. It is suggested that exposure to p,p'-DDE might inhibit androgen-receptor containing tumors.
