Effect of polymeric caffeic acid on antitumour activity and natural killer cell activity in mice

The antitumour activity and immunomodulating activity of synthesized lignin-like polyphenols in mice were determined. Polymerized polyphenols were prepared using caffeic acid as the precursor. The intake of both polymeric and monomeric caffeic acid inhibited the growth of B7-P815 tumours in mice, bu...
