72 male and 72 female rats of the strain Can-Hoe-Wiga received standard diet in a long-term study (24 months). A group of equal size received the beta-blocker BM 51.052 administered at a dose of 900 ppm in the feed. The animals in the drug group showed a 20 to 30% delay in body weight gain in comparison with the control animals. These drug-treated animals showed, similarly to experiments with a restrictive diet, a lower death rate, fewer glomerulopathies, and lower creatinine and protein levels in the serum. In addition, there were fewer tumour bearers, the total number of tumours was less, and the malignancy and formation of metastases was reduced. This experiment shows the importance which should be attached to the course of body weight gain during a long-term study. Only if these parameters are taken into consideration, an interpretation of the experimental results is possible.
