Abstract: | The recovery of 9.10-3H] palmitate complexed to mouse serum albumin was studied 5 sec after ip injection into mice bearing Ehrlich ascites carcinomas.
Only about 55% of the injected radioactivity remained in the tumor cells, tumor extracellular fluid and peritoneal washings
in mice having ca. 5 ml of the ascites tumor (cells plus extracellular fluid). However the recoveries were nearly quantitative
from tumors of larger volume (≥8 ml). A model is proposed to account for the volume-dependent transfer of palmitate from tumor
to host in these cancerous mice.
