MXT-M-3,2 breast cancer implanted into female B6D2F1 mice accelerates the growth of an identical second tumor. This process is accompanied by a significant increase of the granulocyte and monocyte numbers in the blood and of the granulocyte and macrophage numbers in the spleen. A significant positive correlation of strong intensity was found between the tumor weight on the one hand and the number of the granulocytes and macrophages on the other hand. The tumor-dependent promotion of the myelopoiesis is explained with a secretion of hematopoietic growth factors, e.g. of the granulocyte-macrophage-stimulating growth factor (GM-CSF), by the breast cancer cells.
