Summary If intratesticular tissue of Brown-Pearce carcinoma is inoculated in rabbits following irradiation by x-rays in vitro (2000–20 000 r) the biological properties of the tumor cells are altered, the latent period of the tumor development prolonged, the life span increased, and atypical development, and in some cases, even complete resolution of the tumor are observed. The intensity of the metioned changes depends directly upon the dose of irradiation. As compared with a dose of 20,000 r the changes in the biological properties of the tumor cells after irradiation with 2000 r were found to be more pronounced.
