THE evolution of the transplanted suprarenal tumour of A x C rats is different in the two sexes; the tumour grows more rapidly in intact females than in intact males, and females survive a shorter time than males (Table II in Iglesias and Mardones, 1958). The problem of the dependence of tumour growth on the gonads is of considerable interest. A similar dependence has been found also with other tumours: the transplantable ovarian tumour in mice (Miihlbock, 1952) and the transplantable ovarian tumour in our A x C strain of rats (Iglesias and Mardones, 1956a, 1956b). In the present paper results of a more detailed study of the dependence of the transplantable suprarenal tumour of A x C rats on the gonads will be given. The influence of gonadal steroids, of cortisone and of ACTH also has been studied. All experiments were made with the subcutaneous transplantation of a suprarenal tumour of the second transplant generation. The latent period was determined by palpation. The " volume" of the tumour is the product of three diameters measured with the caliper. Results are summarized in Table I.
