ABSTRACT:
A new method of detecting cancer by determining the presence of autocrine motility factor (AMF) in the body fluid is described. The method utilizes induction of motility in suitable responder cells by a sample of the body fluid. If the responder cells demonstrate motility, cancer is indicated in the person from whom the body fluid was obtained.
