Abstract
A protein preparation obtained from the Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC ) by acetone precipitation, water extraction and subsequent two-step a lcohol fractionation reduced significantly EAC cell proliferation in v ivo and ill vitro. The preparation was found to contain a low molecula r-weight growth-inhibitory activity, suppressing both DNA synthesis in cultured EAC cells and EAC cell division in tumor-bearing mice. The a pproximate molecular weight of this inhibitory component(s) is about 3 00-500 Da, corresponding to oligopeptide molecule(s).
