Treatment With 1-Alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (Vitamin D3) to Inhibit Carcinogenesis in the Hamster Buccal Pouch Model

Abstract

Systemic VD(3) therapy delays carcinogenesis in the hamster buccal pouch model. Further investigation into the mechanisms through which VD(3) inhibits carcinogenesis may lead to development of effective chemopreventive agents to combat head and neck cancer.
