[The synchronizing effect of cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate on the mitotic cycle of Ehrlich ascitic carcinoma cells].

A study was made of the number of mitoses and of the DNA-synthesizing cells in the ascitic Ehrlich carcinoma in the course of 24 hours after the injection of cyclic 3',5'-adenosinmonophosphate to mice. It was found that as the result of the preprrophase inhibition and, possibly, of stimulation of the cell entry into the S-phase, 8 hours after the action a great number of cells began to divide almost simultaneously. The effect of mitosis synchronization was assessed in the tumour cell population.
