Summary Experiments on the effect of transplacental initiation with 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) and postnatal promotion with teleocidin were carried out in mice. The percentage of tumorbearing mice among females treated with DMBA transplacentally on day 17 of gestation and postnatally by topical application of teleocidin to the skin of the back was 73.3% in week 30, whereas that among females treated with DMBA on day 10 of gestation and postnatally by topical application of teleocidin was 20.0%. This indicates that teleocidin shows potent tumor promoting activity on mouse skin in a transplacental initiation and postnatal promotion protocol. Furthermore, in the males treated with DMBA transplacentally on day 17 of gestation and given diet containing 0.01% teleocidin postnatally five tumors of the forestomach were found in 5 of 19 effective mice (26.3%) in week 52. One of these five tumors was a squamous cell carcinoma, and the others were papillomas. This indicates that teleocodin also has tumor promoting activity in the forestomach of mice.
