Aim. The purpose of the study was to reveal the effectivenessof the Cytochrome C drug in the early stages of the Pliss lymphosarcomagrowth in white outbred rats.Material and methods. The studies were included white outbredmale rats with an initial weight of 180–220 g (n = 40) withsubcutaneously inoculated Pliss lymphosarcoma. Rats in themain group received the Cytochrome C intraperitoneally in asingle dose of 1.6 mg/kg 1 hour after the tumor inoculationand then until death; animals with tumors in the control groupreceived saline instead of the studied drug in the same way andin the same dosage.Results. Subcutaneous tumors appeared in the control groupin 100% cases, in the main group in 55% cases; tumors werenot detected in 45% of animals in the main group. In rats ofthe main group receiving experimental treatment, tumors regressedwith time: in 73% cases with complete recovery of rats,in 27% cases animals died.Conclusions. The Cytochrome C in a therapeutic and prophylacticregimen had a pronounced antitumor effect. Perhaps theeffectiveness of the drug can be improved using an inert carrierwhich will protect the protein from proteolytic cleavage whenit enters the bloodstream, together with detoxification agents.
