[Phenomenological approach to the behavior of cancer cells (discussion paper)]

Proceeding from theoretical notions about the adhesion of codensed phases an approach is developed which relates the physical cause of uncontrolled division of cancer cells to the excess of their surplus electrical charge over the surface energy. This concept is compared with basic experimental data. It is shown to be in coordination with the regularities of cell genesis and biophysical notions as well. Possible mechanisms of the realization of adhesive intercellular interactions are considered. Possibilities of their control are discussed, mainly the change of the values of surface energies of outer membranes due to their adsorption of "antisurfactant" samples.
