Ea. Zhavrid et al., DYNAMICS OF PH OF RAT-TUMORS IN THE ARTIF ICIAL HYPERGLYCEMIA AT DIFFERENT TERMS AFTER TRANSPLANTATION, Eksperimental'naa onkologia, 16(1), 1994, pp. 66-70
The dynamics of intratumoral pH changes during 24 h has been studied b
y constructed adequate mathematical models. The degree of manifestatio
n of structural disorders in 5 transplanted tumours of rats with intra
venous artificial hyperglycemia at different terms after transplantati
on has been analyzed. It was found that antitumour activity of artific
ial hyperglycemia increased with the tumour growth, but to different d
egree for each tumour type. It is suggested to use dynamics of intratu
moural pH in case of artifical hyperglycemia as one of factors for pro
gnosis of the treatment efficiency.
