title: [The inhibiting effect of epsilon-aminocaproic acid on the incidence of induced tumors of the esophagus, nervous system and kidneys].
abstract: The anticarcinogenic properties of epsilon-aminocaproic acid were studied in two rat models of carcinogenesis. Esophageal tumors were induced by oral instillations of a total dose of 54 mg/kg body weight N-methyl-N-benzylnitrosamine whereas tumors of the nervous system and kidney-by transplacental injection of 75 mg/kg body weight N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea. epsilon-Aminocaproic acid given at a concentration of 1 milligram drinking water at the post-initiation stage of the carcinogenesis was shown to inhibit the induction of cancer and papilloma of the esophagus, brain glioma, peripheral nerve neurinoma and mesenchymal tumors of the kidney.
