Abstract excerpt
Viral transformation and DNA-transfection assays were employed to investigate the differential toxic effect of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), an extract of the honeybee hive product propolis, on adenovirus type 5 (Ad5)-transformed cloned rat embryo fibroblast (CREF) cells. CAPE inhibited, in a dose-dependent manner, both de novo and carcinogen-enhanced transformation of CREF cells by H5hr1, the...
