[The effect of ascitic fluid globulins on the growth of leukemia P388/DOX and Ehrlich's carcinoma in mice]

Abstract

The study was performed to investigate the effect of ascitic fluid globulins of tumor on tumor growth and life span of mice. The globulins are shown to shorten the life span of Ehrlich tumor mice from 86.8 to 61.8 days, to increase 3-5-fold the growth rate of Ehrlich carcinoma and P388/DOX tumor. It was found that globulins of ascitic fluids and serum globulins of tumor have equal effects of tumor growth. It is proposed to use globulins of ascitic fluid to study the globulin role in tumor growth.
