Abstract

Bouvardin, a new antineoplastic plant product, inhibits macromolecular synthesis in P388 cells in a dose-dependent manner. At the same concentration of bouvardin, protein synthesis was inhibited to a greater extent than the synthesis of DNA and RNA. There was a reversal of inhibition of both DNA and RNA synthesis after the cells were washed free of bouvardin. However, there was partial reversal of inhibition of protein synthesis when the cells were washed free of the drug.
