Abstract

Our experiments were concerned with formation of antitumor cross-resistance by Trichinella spiralis infection in rats. Prophylactic infection was followed by an insignificant decrease in the number of 3,4-benzpyrene-induced malignant fibrous histiocytoma. It also inhibited mammary gland cancer induced by 7,12-dimethylbenzo(a)anthracene. No significant influence on the formation of fibroadenomas as a side effect was reported.
