The effect of subcutaneous injections of arginine on the growth of the U.C.L.A. fibrosarcoma and the Jensen sarcoma has been studied with male and female rats. Growth-stimulating and growth-inhibiting effects of arginine on these tumors have been observed depending upon the experimental conditions.
