Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the genesis of human cancer and approaches the topic through a remarkable overview of experimental research on mice and rats. The author, Richard Weil, employs tumor transplantation, immunology, and tissue culture to trace the development of cancer, characterizing cancer cells and their response to stimuli. The book also considers how the body reacts to the introduction of foreign cancerous cells, discussing how heterologous tumor grafts provoke local tissue reaction, and examines the effect of removing the spleen on the growth of heterologous tumors. The book concludes that the body's reaction to cancerous cells varies depending on the strain of the tumor, with no apparent pattern between the number of lymphocytes or the degree of fibrosis and the fate of the graft.
