as summarized in Table 7.7. One of the key points of the table is that PRE

is concerned with electromagnetic waves, whereas PDE, as applied to

biology, is primarily concerned with chemical concentration waves, both

obeying the Fourier theorem [53, 160]. Based on this assumption, it seems

reasonable to speculate that the first term of PDE is related to the concen-

tration waves of diffusible molecules and ions in the tumor tissues that are

affected by their anatomical organizations including extracellular matri-

ces, blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerve fibers, and the second term is

concerned with the energy metabolism in individual cells (see the last row

in Table 7.7). The former may be related to the Tissue Organization Field

Theory (TOFT) of cancer formation [332] and the latter to the Somatic

Mutation Theory (SMT) [333]. TOFT asserts that cancer arises from dis-

organized tissues consisting of millions of cells, while SMT maintains

that cancers originate in mutated genes in individual cells. If the interpre-

tation of PDE suggested in Table 7.7 is correct, both these theories may

not be mutually exclusive but are implicated in tumor formation and

maintenance, and the extent of the involvement of these competing theo-

ries of carcinogenesis may be explored using PDE.

Observation (3) suggests that PDE-based analysis can reveal those

genes whose RNA phenotypes are implicated in drug-induced effects

(encoded on the x-axis) on the longevity (encoded on the y-axis) of breast
