Abstract
We compared the effects of Na+ and Ca2+ double-stranded RNA on cultured human laryngeal cancer cells by cytomorphometry and cytophotometry. Both agents inhibited proliferation and other cell functions, but to a different extent: Ca2+ double-stranded RNA was more active than Na+ double-stranded RNA.
