The ability of vitamin A and its analogues (retinoids) to prevent chemically-induced tumours has been studied in various experimental systems1. We have investigated here the possibility that retinoids might also inhibit radiation-induced oncogenic transformation using a cell line of C3H mouse embryo fibroblasts grown in culture. We report a marked reduction in the transformation frequency by using one such compound, Ro-11-1430, the synthesis and structure of which has been described by Bollag2.
