Coinjection of DDAVP (1-2 microg/kg body weight) at the time of i.v. inoculation of F3II carcinoma cells or LM3 adenocarcinoma cells significantly inhibited the formation of experimental lung metastases.
We have investigated the effects of desmopressin (DDAVP), a synthetic analog of the natural hormone vasopressin, on experimental lung colonization of mammary tumor cells using a syngeneic BALB/c mouse model.
