Abstract |
The effects of six chemotherapeutic drugs currently used in human gliomas treatment were tested with an in vitro cytotoxicity test. Out of six, VM 26 proved to be the most potent against tumor cells along with a moderate cytotoxicity against normal brain or embryonnic human cells. This specificity did not seem to be related to differences in cellular growth rates.
