Abstract
This review seeks to highlight and celebrate Professor Tomizo Yoshida's famous work on "Establishment and characterization of a rat ascites sarcoma, later named "Yoshida ascites sarcoma". Considering the tremendous contribution of this ascites tumor system to the subsequent promotion of research on cancer biology and cancer chemotherapy, his paper should be regarded as a monumental one in the cancer field. The research was carried out during 1943 and the results were submitted to this Journal in October 1944, when Japan was approaching a debilitating defeat in World War II in August 1945. In 1947, when "Research on Ascites sarcoma" was first comprehensively introduced to researchers in a special lecture at the Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Pathology, the whole audience was deeply impressed and was encouraged to resume scientific activity in Japan.
