Inhibition of human colon carcinoma cell growth by ammonia: a non-cytotoxic process associated with polyamine synthesis reduction

Ammonia, produced by bacterial degradation of unabsorbed and endogenous nitrogenous compounds, is found to be present at millimolar concentrations in the colon lumen. From in vivo animal experiments, this metabolite has been shown to alter colonic epithelial cell morphology and to increase compensat...
