Abstract: | An increased level of serum alpha-fetoprotein is observed in aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)-induced hepatocellular carcinoma (HC) in rats. Semecarpus anacardium nut milk extract (200 mg/kg, p.o., for 14 days) significantly reduced serum alpha-fetoprotein levels within the normal range, suggesting an antitumour activity against AFB1-induced HC. |
