[Decrease in the excretion of antigonadotropic factor in patients with cancer of the uterine cervix and prostate gland. Experimental antitumor effect of an epiphyseal extract]
Abstract
Kaolin-acetone extracts from the urine of patients with cancer of the prostatic gland and uterine neck were found to contain much less quantity of antigonadotropic factor than corresponding substances from the urine of control groups of males and females. This evidences a decreased function of the epiphysis in these groups of tumor patients. Acetic acid extract from cattle epiphyses inhibits the growth of transplantable tumor of mice strain RSM.
