A n ber of investigations carried out by USSR biologists (I. A. Utkia and other have shown that proliferation of cells ? (~YtO6i8) proceeds in the organism on the basis of unconditional and conditional reflexes, It has been established in experimental work that this law is valid not only for normal cells but also Por tumor cells. These investigations prove theoretically ttat it is possible to influence proliferation processes from the practical [therapeutic] standpoint.
