Effect of sodium meclofenamate on ultraviolet radiation induced carcinogenesis. 1984

J L Ambrus, and C M Ambrus, and J W Pickren, and E Klein

Sodium meclofenamate (Meclomen), an antiprostaglandin antileukotriene agent, was found in previous studies to protect primates against x-ray induced brain edema, esophagitis and cystitis. In the present study, it appeared to protect hairless mice against the carcinogenic effect of ultraviolet B-radiation.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D014466	Ultraviolet Rays	That portion of the electromagnetic spectrum immediately below the visible range and extending into the x-ray frequencies. The longer wavelengths (near-UV or biotic or vital rays) are necessary for the endogenous synthesis of vitamin D and are also called antirachitic rays; the shorter, ionizing wavelengths (far-UV or abiotic or extravital rays) are viricidal, bactericidal, mutagenic, and carcinogenic and are used as disinfectants.
