The exact role that bone marrow (BM)-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) play in tumor neovascularization is heavily debated. We develop a quantitative three-compartment model with predictive power regarding the dynamics of tumorigenesis. There are two distinct processes by which tumor neova

## Abstract Radiosensitive host cells capable of potentiating tumor neutralization by immunocytes in normal recipients are present only in the bone marrow and not in the spleen or thymus. This was shown by selectively eliminating either the bone marrow, spleen or thymus of groups of mice and then s
T row specimens obtained by needle aspiration of the sternum was described by Reich in 1935.l\* Subsequently, many reports of the finding of tumor cells in the bone marrow have been made. The review by Leitner' in 1949 and the recent papers by Jaimet and Amy5 and Pillers, Marks, and Mitchell9 are pa
