Cancerous tissue from 86 patients with primary gastric cancer were examined for the presence of receptors for estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PgR). ER and PgR were present in 8 (15.4%) and 5 (9.6%), respectively, of 52 male patients, 9 (26.6%) and 7 (20.6%), respectively, of 34 female patients, a total of 17 (19.8%) and 12 (14.0%), respectively. One male patient (1.9%) and 4 female patients (11.8%) had both ER and PgR, and 40 male (76.9%) and 22 female patients (64.7%) showed no ER or PgR. The binding activity ranged from 6 to 200 fmol/mg protein for estradiol and from 5 to 58 fmol/mg protein for progesterone. ER- and/or PgR-positive cases were characterized grossly as Borrmann type 4, and microscopically as diffuse type with scirrhous growth pattern. The presence of ER and/or PgR in some gastric cancers indicates the possibility that sex hormonal factors are involved in these tumors.
