Abstract
In breast and stomach cancer the cell reactions in regional lymph nodes were studied by histochemical assaying of the T-dependent zone (acid phosphatase activity) and B-dependent zone (the activity of alkaline phosphatase, 5-nucleotidase, ATPs) and also by determining sinus histiocytosis. The metastases involved lymph nodes were characterized by a regular marked fall in the acid phosphatase activity i. e. by the decreased T-zone, which is responsible for cell immune response.
