Abstract:
Cultures of B. burgdorferi, their supernatants as well as washed cells revealed in vitro a considerable antitumor activity against cells of Gardner lymphoma. Németh-Kellner lymphoma and LP-2 plasmacytoma. In in vivo tests an inhibition of tumor growth was evident, even if the treatment was started on day 4 after implantation of the tumor. The best results were obtained with the supernatants of the cultures.
