Growth-Controlling Action of Human Serum in Cell Culture

IT is reasonable to think that there are stimuli and opportunities in every human life which result in a cancerous transformation of some cells. The main factor in the progress of these cells to the clinical tumour stage might be a deficiency in the growth-controlling defensive mechanism. To demonst...

Zusammenfassung:IT is reasonable to think that there are stimuli and opportunities in every human life which result in a cancerous transformation of some cells. The main factor in the progress of these cells to the clinical tumour stage might be a deficiency in the growth-controlling defensive mechanism. To demonstrate the possible existence of such factors we have studied since 1955 the effect of human serum on different cells in cell culture 1 .
