We studied the influence of different photoregimens (light/darkness alternation and constant darkness) on the effect of saline and chalone regulation of cell proliferation in Ehrlich ascitic tumor was studied. Saline slightly inhibited proliferation of tumor cells. Chalone-containing preparations from animals exposed to light/darkness alternation and to constant darkness were characterized by different effects on cell proliferation in this tumor.

Carnosine clearly improved the external appearance of experimental animals and provided beneficial physiological effects, thus maintaining the animals in better condition than control animals receiving no carnosine or a mixture of beta-alanine and L-histidine.
