Lipopolysaccharide fraction isolated from Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (E-LPS) was investigated as an antitumor agent against human leukemia cell ML-2. Marked cell growth inhibition was observed with ML-2 cell accompanied by inhibition of DNA synthesis and perturbation of cell cycle. Induction of differentiation in treated ML-2 cells was observed as indicated by morphological maturation, NBT reducing activity and indirect immunofluorescence.
