Asymmetrical mitosis after treatment with % antipyrin solution. B. Tripolar mitosis after treatment with % potassic iodide solution. also common in regenerating tissues after irritative stimulus (Strobe); but it is uncertain whether such mitoses lead to the formation of normal tissue.^ The frequency of abnormal mitoses in pathological growths is a most suggestive fact, but it is still wholly undetermined whether the abnormal mode of cell-division is the cause of the disease or the reverse. The latter seems the more probable alternative, since nor- mal mitosis is certainly the rule in abnormal growths; and Galeotti's experiments suggest that the pathological mitoses in such growths may be caused by the presence of deleterious chemical products in the diseased tissue, and perhaps point the way to their medical treatment. ^ The remarkable polyasters formed in polyspermia fertilization of the egg are de» scribed at page Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Wilson, Edmund B.
