The ability of dexamethasone (DM) to slow the growth of B16 melanoma in C57B1 mice was confirmed. Inhibition was dose-related and was demonstrated in the use of established tumours as well as initial transplants. Although glucocorticoid receptors (GR) were present in cultured tumour cells, DM did not reduce growth of B16 in vitro, even at high concentration. This dissociation of effect on growth in vivo and in vitro suggests that DM slows B16 tumour growth in vivo by mechanisms other than GR-mediated inhibition of tumour cells.
