Transplantable mouse 16/c mammary adenocarcinoma as a model in experimental cancer therapy. II. Modification of tumor-host interactions by therapeutic procedures

Abstract

The influence of therapeutic procedures on tumor--host interactions was analysed using 16/c mouse mammary adenocarcinoma model system. After partial removal of tumor burden the growth enhancement of remnant tumor mass was observed. Pretreatment of the host either with cyclophosphmide or X-rays resulted in enhancement of experimental metastasis formation. Unexpectedly, such a procedure caused the growth delay of the primary subcutaneous tumor. The possible mechanisms of observed phenomena are discussed.
