Summary
The liver of mice with implanted cancer produces mitogenetic radiation; its spectral analysis shows that the protein molecules of the cell substrate become smaller in size. After implantation of a piece of tumor in mice, the mitogenetic radiation of the liver and cancer “extinguisher” was detected in its cells in 20–22 hr, whereas endogenous cancerogenic substance was detected only after 4 days.
The results obtained are regarded as a confirmation of the hypothesis formerly advanced by the author of the role played by cancer “extinguisher” in the mechanism of mitogenetic radiation of the liver in animals with implanted cancers. The complexity of the problem and the necessity of its further study are emphasized.
