Abstract

Thirteen human proteins were found in plasma and cystic fluid of mice bearing human testicular yolk sac tumor. Six of them, α-fetoprotein, prealbumin, albumin, α<subscript>1</subscript>anti-trypsin, hemopexin and transfernn, had been previously demonstrated to be produced by yolk sac tumors. The syntheses of the remaining seven, namely apolipoprotein A1 retinol-binding protein, α<subscript>2</subscript> HS-glycoprotein, haptoglobin, apolipoprotein B, C5 component and anti-hemophilic factor, have been demonstrated for the first time.
