Inhibition of L5178Y Cells in Culture by Methotrexate and Antibiotics

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Methotrexate, tetracycline, gentamicin, streptomycin, and penicillin inhibited the growth of L5178Y murine leukemia cells in culture with I50 (concentration of drug that caused a 50% inhibition of growth at 72 h) values of 0.0028 μg/ml (6.2 × 10−9 M), 7.9 μg/ml, 200 μg/ml, 1,700 μg/ml, and 3,000 μg/ml (5,000 U/ml), respectively. At concentrations achieved clinically or utilized in the laboratory, the antibiotics did not alter the I50 of methotrexate.
