چکیده
Mixed bacterial toxins have been used in an ef fort to destroy malignant tumors in patients and animals since 1892, when Coley (13) initiated clini cal applications. No systematic study of the histopathologic effects of mixed bacterial toxins on ex perimental tumors has been found. Several good studies of changes elicited in tumors by products from single bacterial strains have been published (3, 5, 17), but the specific investigation of changes produced by mixed bacterial toxins in tumors and hosts seemed warranted.

Evaluation of Soft Tissue Sarcoma Tumors Electrical Conductivity Anisotropy Using Diffusion Tensor Imaging for Numerical Modeling on Electroporation
Introduction: There is many ways to assessing the electrical conductivity anisotropyof a tumor. Applying the values of tissue electrical conductivity anisotropyis crucial in numerical modeling of the electric and thermal field distribution in electroporationtreatments. This study aims to calculate the tissues electrical conductivityanisotropy in patients with sarcoma tumors using diffusion tens...

Uterine sarcomas comprise a group of rare tumors with different tumor biology, natural history and response to treatment, contain just 3-7% of total uterine malignancies and about 1% of all gynecologic cancers. Although they cause important part of women death due gynecologic cancers. These tumors have aggressive behavior and high recurrence rate, even when confined to the uterine corpus at the...
متن کاملMixed bacterial toxins in the treatment of tumors. IV. Response of methylcholanthrene-induced, spontaneous, and transplanted tumors in mice.
Different preparations obtained from cultures of Serratia marcescens and Strepto coccus pyogenes were tested in seven spontaneous, induced, and transplanted tumors of mice, and Rous sarcoma in chicks. The toxins were found to be effective against Krebs-2 carcinoma causing regression of well established tumors. They were found to be ineffective against Sarcoma 180, Gardner's Lymphosarcoma 6C3HED...
متن کاملMixed bacterial toxins in the treatment of tumors. III. Effect of tumor removal on the toxicity and mortality rates in mice.
that bacterial toxins from Serr&ia rnarc&wena and Streptococcus pyogenes are considerably less toxic when adminis tered to normal mice than when given to mice bearing Sarcoma 37 (1, @). A @0-to SO-fold dosage increase of the toxins is required to produce tissue changes and mortality rates in normal mice equiv alent to those produced in tumor-bearing animals. This difference in susceptibility co...

Neoplasms have been reported to regress in patients subsequent to acute streptococcal infec tions. Treatment of human tumors with an in duced bacterial infection was attempted in 1868 by Busch (2), who had observed clinical improve ment in cancer patients following an attack of erysipelas. Fehleisen (7) established streptococci as the causative agents of erysipelas and obtained encouraging resu...
