Tumor lipids: Comparison of glyceryl ethers of mouse and insect tumors

Abstract

Examination of the lipids of two tumor-bearing mutant strains of fruit fly reveal that they do not have the elevated content of glyceryl ethers typical of many neoplasms of higher animals. Glyceryl ether diesters were absent, and the amounts of alkyl and alk-1-enyl glyceryl ethers of tumorous and normal tissues were similar.
