Since 1953, when Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary reached the summit of Mount Everest, many climbers have attempted to scale th

e world's two highest mountains, Everest and K2. Norgay and Hillary aided their climb by bringing supplemental oxygen in tanks, and some later groups have attempted to outdo the originals by trying the ascent without supplemental oxygen. From 1978 to 1999, in fact, 159 teams have attempted to climb Mount Everest or K2. The numbers of individuals who either survived or died during those attempts are given in the following table (data is hypothetical and not the exact numbers observed by Huey and Eguskitza 2000).
Survived supplemental O2 (16) No Supplemental 02 (175), did not survive (38) (192) - seen in 2 by 2 table, amounts are in parathesis

tumor cells: tumor cells

Researchers from Harvard Medical School, Boston, and the Institute for Systems Biology, Seattle, have discovered that the remains of tumor cells killed by chemotherapy or other cancer treatments can actually stimulate tumor growth by inducing an inflammatory reaction. The study also reveals that a family of molecules called resolvins can suppress this unwanted inflammatory response, suggesting new ways to enhance the effectiveness of existing cancer therapies

Conventional, radiation- and drug-based cancer therapies aim to kill as many tumor cells as possible, but the debris left behind by dead and dying cancer cells can stimulate the production of proinflammatory cytokines, signaling molecules that are known to promote tumor growth.

“Dead and dying tumor cells are an underappreciated component of the tumor microenvironment that may promote tumor progression,” explained Charles N. Serhan, PhD, Director of the Center for Experimental Therapeutics and Reperfusion Injury at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Professor at Harvard Medical School. Serhan and colleagues therefore decided to investigate whether tumor cell debris can stimulate tumor growth.
