Effects of Alkoxyglycerols and especially Selachyl Alcohol on the Bone Marrow in connexion with Irradiation Treatment and in Leukæmia Therapy
Alkoxyglycerols reduced leukocytopenia and thrombocytopenia when given to rats before or after irradiation. A comparative study was made of the effectiveness when administered as natural shark-liver oil and as a purified concentrate of esters. Selachyl alcohol showed more marked effects on bone marrow activity than any other constituent of the shark-liver oil. The alkoxyglycerols were tried in about thirty cases of acute leukemia in children, and some favorable responses were observed. (C.H.)
