Abstract
Examinations of patients with breast cancer and mammary fibroadenomatosis suggest a relationship between the secretion of interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor by blood mononuclears, on the one hand, and patients' age, body weight, and body fat, on the other. A modifying (discoordinating) role of tobacco smoking in the realization of this process is noted.
