Relative susceptibility of various organs to tumor transplantation.

Metastasis of neoplasms is a complex process involving several steps. First, is the separation of cells from the main tumor; then follow invasion of a vessel, transport, arrest, penetration of the ves sel wall, and, finally, establishment and growth in the new site with new stroma and vascular supply. Some aspects of this process have been discussed in recent papers from this laboratory: (a) th...

Arsenic-induced Histological Alterations in Various Organs of Mice.

Deposition of arsenic in mice through groundwater is well documented but little is known about the histological changes of organs by the metalloid. Present study was designed to evaluate arsenic-induced histological alterations in kidney, liver, thoracic artery and brain of mice which are not well documented yet.
