Hormones Found
Important Clue
In Cancer Hunt
By Paul F. Kills
(Uniliil Pre Science Writer)
New York, May 18, UP The
hormones chemical substances
that control the mechanism of the
human body and determine sex
characteristics have been found
to have a significant role In can
cer. The different substances pro
duced In tiny amounts by the sex
and other glands follow a reg
ular pattern in excretion from
normal persons each day, but stu
dies at the Sloan-Kettering insti
tute for cancer research have
shown there is a decided shift or
change in the pattern when di
sease is in the body.
There is such a pattern shift
tnat indicates cancel-. Most signi
ficant in the shift is the presence
of a "stranger" a hormone that
is rarely found in persons not suf
fering disease, particularly those
not suffering cancer. .
The Sloan-Kettering scientists
have made their preliminary con
clusions after almost 10 years of
laboratory work and clinical tests
Examinations of urinary excre
tions of scores of persons some
old, some young have been
made. Techniques of analyzing
and obtaining the "fingertips" of
. the various hormone excretions
have been developed. The newest
trick of obtaining the "finger
prints" of the individual hormone
substances is the exposure of
them to infra-red light. The pro-
. cedure brines out their inuivia-
ual structures and makes them
pasv to identify.
Through use of the new tech
niques, the scientists obtained the
"finger-print" of the particular
strange hormone that shows up m
most cancer cases either before
detection of the disease or during
"lexojirse of the disease.
' p Comes From Adrenals
' The "cancer" hormone deriva
tive probably comes from the ad
renals, two small glands located
on top of the kidneys and glands
whose proper function is neces
sary, for normal life in the hu
man being.
In the examination of excre
tions from ten men suffering
cancer of the prostate, the hor
mone was .found in nine cases;
in four out of four cases of can
cer of the larynx; in two out of
two cases of cancer of breast
male; in four out pf Jour cases
in cancer of the stomach; in one
out of one in cancer of the cer
vix; and four out of four cases
oFlymphatjc leukemia.
But in 15 normal males, It was
found in only one. In nine normal
females, it was found in only
one. Sloan-Kettering scientists
are now following up those two
cases to determine whether they
ultimately develop cancer. In one
case, the strange, hormone was
found in a woman apparently in
good health. Three years later she
developed caner, was operated on
and is in good health today -six
years after the operation.
