Complete regression of Ehrlich solid tumors by the combined administration of glucose, wheat straw hemicellulose-B, and ovoglycopeptide.

Abstract

Glucose solution containing wheat straw hemicellulose-B and ovoglycopeptide (W-O-G) has no effect on Ehrlich ascites tumors but completely regresses Ehrlich solid tumors. The carcinostatic effect of this mixture is lost or decreases markedly whenever one of the three substances is lacking. For this glucose solution to possess a carcinostatic effect it is necessary that this hemicellulose-B of W-O-G is the hydrolysate of the extract with 20% NaOH from the residue obtained after extraction of wheat straw with 10% NaOH.
