Аннотация
Relevance: This study’s relevance is due to the lack among academia of a holistic picture of the processes that occur in the body in cancer cell metastasis. Particularly, a lot is unclear about the physical mechanism of molecular signaling and organizing immune responses, as well as registering the frequency and amplitude of ultra-weak electromagnetic signals with the development of a tumor process in the body. The purpose of this study was to review the literature sources regarding the physicochemical mechanisms of processes that occur in the body in cancer cell metastasis. Results: The analysis of the selected sources gives reason to believe that a medico-biological point of view is not enough to explain tumor metastasis. The mentioned sources highlight the issues related to the physical and chemical components of this process. The publications state the facts of the reorganization of cancer cells at receiving molecular signals. Hence, the authors do not explain what structures form molecular signals of a strictly defined frequency and how physically the cancer cell receives these signals and implements them into practical responses. It is evident that these molecular signals are ultra-weak electromagnetic waves. Methods of quantification of some parameters of the metastasis process are proposed, as well as the ways to register ultra-weak electromagnetic signals. Conclusion: Data on the physicochemical mechanisms of various stages of metastasis of malignant tumors included in this review complements the picture of the process of cancer metastasis in the human body and defines a range of issues that require interdisciplinary research involving both physicians and biologists, and specialists in quantum physics, electronics, and chemistry. Only quantum electrodynamics can explain the mechanism of a cell cytoskeleton transformation (from a healthy to a tumor cell) under the influence of weak electromagnetic signals. The authors reveal priority directions for an interdisciplinary study of bioenergetic processes that occur in the body in cancer cell metastasis.
