The author begins by reviewing the history of the discovery of this protein and its association with multiple myeloma, a type of bone cancer. The author then discusses the possible causes of Bence Jones proteinuria, focusing on the theory that it is produced by the action of enzymes released by the abnormal cells in the bone marrow. The author also discusses the various theories about the composition and structure of Bence Jones protein and explores the possibility that it is related to other proteins in the body, such as serum globulin. Finally, the author presents the results of his own experiments, in which he injected products of the enzymatic digestion of bone marrow into dogs and observed the effects on their urine. The author concludes that his results support the theory that Bence Jones protein is produced by the action of enzymes on bone marrow proteins and that it is excreted in the urine as a waste product of this process. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge about Bence Jones protein and its role in multiple myeloma. It is a valuable resource for researchers and clinicians interested in this topic.
