To determine whether Müllerian Inhibiting Substance (MIS) is the factor responsible for the cytotoxic effects of testicular preparations on gynecological cancers, homogenates of bovine fetal testes were fractionated by Sephadex G 200 chromatography and their cytotoxic effects tested on a Müllerian-derived endometrial cancer cell line (AN3-CA), an ovarian carcinoma cell line (CAOV 3) and on a breast cancer cell line (MCF 7). No difference in cytotoxicity was found between Müllerian and non-Müllerian derived human cancer cells. Cytotoxicity and MIS activity were found in different fractions on Sephadex G 200 gel chromatography.
