Popis: The radioimmunological and radioreceptor methods have been used to show that sialadenectomy leads to the stable decrease of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) concentration in saliva and blood serum. The mean number of colon tumours per rat was significantly lower among the rats which had been sialadenectomized before injections of the carcinogen, than in the control. But a sharp stimulation of carcinogenesis in the duodenal mucosa was observed after sialadenectomy. The production of the alpha-transforming growth factor with the EGF-competing activity for the EGF-receptors was found in the chemically-induced rat colon tumours.
