[Analysis of TNF receptor by binding assay].

The existence of a TNF receptor on TNF-sensitive tumor cells and on certain normal cells was elucidated by specific binding assay. A close correspondence (r = 0.855) was shown between the receptor number and the sensitivity of the tumor cells. However, for normal cells, despite the existence of TNF receptors, no cytotoxic effect was observed. Furthermore, certain normal diploid cells underwent proliferation as a result of TNF stimulation. It was therefore concluded that the existence of TNF receptor is essential but not sufficient in itself for TNF-induced cytotoxicity.

[Treatment of soft tissue sarcomas of the leg].

An analysis of data of 548 patients with different diseases of soft tissues of lower extremities after using a complex of diagnostic measures (clinical, radionuclide data, thermography, puncture, biopsy) has shown that the number of erroneous conclusions may be minimized to 2%. Modern advances of plastic surgery can widen indications for preserving operations in malignant tumors of soft tissues of lower extremities without prejudice to the main principle of oncology concerning its fascial character. Combined treatment can also improve the results.

[Anti-tumor effect and mechanism of action of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)].

TNF is cytokine derived from macrophages and shows much promise for use in cancer therapy because of its marked antitumor effects and its high specificity to tumors. The clinical application (Phase I-II) of TNF has been started because human recombinant TNF (rH-TNF) can be produced on a large scale. In spite of notable antitumor effects, little is known concerning the mechanism of its cytotoxic action. In this article, the antitumor effects of rH-TNF against human and murine tumors, the mechanism of its action and the synergistic effects of rH-TNF in combination with IFN-gamma, various anticancer drugs or with hyperthermia are reviewed.

[Gastrointestinal sarcomas].

In 45 primary sarcomas of the gastrointestinal tract the authors attempt to derive criteria for prognosis from histology and localization of the tumors and from clinical parameters. Their observations lead to the conclusion that 1) proximal sarcomas of the gastrointestinal tract have a better prognosis than distal sarcomas, 2) lymphocytic malignant lymphomas has a better prognosis than other histologic types, and 3) there is a correlation between blood sedimentation rate and prognosis.
