I. Abstract Background A recent development in critical care medicine makes it urgent that research into the effect of hormones on immunity be pursued aggressively. Studies have demonstrated a large reduction in mortality as a result of infusion with glucose insulin and potassium. Our work in the oncology setting has led us to propose that the principal reason for such an effect is that GIK stimulates lymphocytes to proliferate and attack pathogens sparing the patient the stress of infection. That suggestion is based on a new model of immunity that describes the effect of hormones on lymphocytes. We hypothesized that the application of glucose insulin thyroid and potassium would awaken inert tumor infiltrating lymphocytes to destroy the tumor. Methods The antitumor effect of a thyroxine glucose insulin and potassium TGIK .
