Abstract
Thiocyanate was found to resemble cyanate In Its Inhibitory effects on [3H]thymidine Incorporation and the uptake of [32P]phosphate and [3H]amino acids In transplanted tumors of the BUF rat. The capacity to inhibit metabolite uptake In hepatomas and a colon tumor under conditions In which uptake was unchanged or Increased In host liver was concluded to be a common feature of the action of cyanate and thiocyanate. Inhibition of [32P]phosphate uptake and [3H]thymidlne Incorporation Into DNA of tumors was also observed after treatment of rats with amygdalin. With this drug, however, the action on tumors and livers of host rats was similar.
