| Abstract: | The inducers of microsomal hydroxylases, phenobarbitone and methylcholanthrene, inhibited the development of neurotoxic shock provoked by high doses of ftorafur in mice, but stimulated the animal mortality on the 4th-8th day after the drug administration. The opposite effect on both toxicity manifestations has been obtained under the action of the inhibitor SKF 525-A. Pretreatment of the animals with phenobarbitone or phenobarbitone-methylcholanthrene combination markedly increased the antineoplastic activity of ftorafur determined by a loss of the spleen weight in mice infected with Rauscher's leukemia. |
