Abstract
Multiparous SHN mice with spontaneous mammary tumors (5-10 mm in size) were given water extract of Guan-mu-tong (Gmt; Caulis aristolochiae manshuriensis) (0.5%) ad libitum as drinking water for 10 days. This treatment retarded significantly the growth of mammary tumors compared with the controls. By contrast, normal mammary gland growth, histology of adrenals and ovaries, and body weight were affected little by the Gmt treatment. Gmt appears to be the first agent inhibiting the growth of spontaneous mouse mammary tumors of palpable size by per os treatment.
