Abstract
The tumors of rats who had not been acclimated to hypoxia subjected to acute hypoxic hypoxia (altitude chamber) as well as blood hypoxia (carbon monoxide) decreased tissue oxygen tension while histotoxic hypoxia (NaCN) on the contrary increased tissue oxygen tension. The tumor acclimated to hypoxia seems to select compensatory mechanisms mostly associated with increased tissue oxygen tension thus taking advantage of lower extent of tissue oxygen tension when subject to acute hypoxic hypoxia than in femoral muscle. All types of acute hypoxias caused a decrease of tissue oxygen tension in the malignancy.
