Summary
The action of Triethylenmelamine, an anti-tumour substance, was investigated on tumourgrowth and on development of the foreign body granuloma comparatively.
It was found that this substance induces in both cases a similar dosis-dependent inhibition of growth.
As the inhibiting action of Triethylenmelamine can even be demonstrated on rapidly growing normal tissues, it is questionable whether the antagonistic action against tumour can be designed as tumour-specific.
