The effect of a non-protein fraction from an extract of inflamed skin of rabbits inoculated with vaccinia virus (Neurotropin, NSP) was studied on Meth A tumor-induced delayed type hypersensitivity (Meth A-DTH) in BALB/c mice. NSP enhanced the Meth A-DTH. NSP also enhanced the DTH suppressed with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Moreover, NSP inhibited the fatal effect of 5-FU and restored the decrease of body weight caused by 5-FU. However, NSP reduced partially but significantly the suppression of the tumor growth by 5-FU. NSP may be useful for cancer treatment in combination with chemotherapeutic agents, if NSP does not inhibit their antitumor activity.
