Abstract excerpt
Phorbol esters and related compounds provide a promising source of potential anticancer agents. The mechanism of their toxicity, however, is unclear, and interpretation has been complicated by the conflicting responses exhibited by different transformed cell lines. Previously we showed that in pr...
