X Abstract

The postnatal action of low-molecular polypeptide factors of thymus (FT), pineal gland (FP), bone marrow (FRM) and anterior hypothalamus (FAH) on transplacental carcinogenic effect of N-nitroso-N-ethylurea in rats was studied. Both FT and FP administrations decreased incidence and multiplicity of tumours and prolonged their mean latent periods. These drugs inhibited mainly the development of tumours of the spinal cord, kidneys and peripheral nervous system but not those of the brain. Both FBM and FAH had no significant influence on transplacental carcinogenesis. FT and FP anticarcinogenic effect is supposed to be due to their normalizing action on hormonal metabolic and immunological shifts arising in the body after transplacental administration of the carcinogen.
