[ ] the pharmacological effects of isotopic marker incorporation were observed in turtle blood and H-TdR, 3-H-UP Wang Ke and H-Leu incorporation in cancer cells, which mixed with Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cell inhibition rates were 96.8%, 94.8%, 91.9%, when the switch to S180 and P338 ascitic carcinoma cells with target cells, the results were similar, description of serum can strongly inhibit cancer fine bosom growth, also prove its tumor suppressor activity does not have specificity. The serum were placed at 37 degrees C and 50 degrees of heat preservation in 10min, then 3H-TdR incorporation tries to full, its fierce cancer activity from 88.9% lung and 4.9%, showed that heating can reduce its anticancer activity, but in saline hemodialysis does not affect its antitumor activity. Serum 3H-TdR and 3H-UP incorporation of normal mouse bone marrow cells also have inhibition, the transformation rate of 39.4% and 37.3%. But the serum inhibitory effect on cancer cells than on bone marrow cell inhibition.
