In the present study, we expected the anti-tumor effect by combined treatment of arsenic trioxide and interferon (IFN)-α on murine Lewis lung carcinoma (LL2) cells through in vivo study. As a experimental model, LL2 cells (1×10∨6/mouse) were injected subcutaneously into the back region of mice. When the tumor volume reached 100 ㎣, mice were treated with 1 mg/kg arsenic trioxide, 50000 IU IFN-α, or arsenic trioxide and IFN-α. The development of tumor cells was significantly inhibited by combined treatment with arsenic trioxide and IFN-α. In arsenic trioxide and IFN-α treated group, apoptotic index was reached a peak valve at 48 hr after the treatment and it was restored to approximately the control level at 8 days.
