  • Title: Antitumor effect of polysaccharide TC-13 on allogeneic and syngeneic tumors in mice.
    Author: Kohno M, Abe S, Yamazaki M, Mizuno D.
    Journal: Gan; 1982 Jun; 73(3):488-94. PubMed ID: 7129013.
    Abstract:
    The antitumor activity of TC-13, a protein-bound polysaccharide extracted from a rare actinomycetes was tested on allogeneic and syngeneic tumors in mice. In the allogeneic Ehrlich carcinoma system, TC-13 showed antitumor activity over a broad optimal dose range, when administered by various routes such as ip, iv, sc, it (intratumorally) or po, even when given before tumor inoculation. TC-13 showed synergistic antitumor effects in combination with other immunomodulators, e.g., lipopolysaccharide, lentinan and picibanil. It showed antitumor activity against syngeneic tumors, MM46 mammary carcinoma and MCS-8 and Meth A fibrosarcoma.
