The study of the features of oncogenesis from an energy point of view is being conducted. The similarity in the manifestation of energy processes for a gas glow discharge and a biological organism as thermodynamically nonequilibrium systems is considered. The mutual correspondence of the individual parameters of the electric discharge plasma and the bioorganism is proposed. From the properties of the gas discharge, the critical amount of energy release is transferred to the evolution of a tumor neoplasm as a condition for the beginning of the rebirth of biostructures. In the problem area a gradient of dissipated power is formed due to the deceleration of the energy flow. With a prolonged stay of biological tissue in an energy-saturated state, an equilibrium shift is assumed for chemical induction reactions responsible for the synthesis of the most complex biological structures. Gas discharge analogy allows us to obtain some quantitative estimates of the body’s resistance to a critical transition. The spatial dynamics of the nucleation of a tumor and the energy flow from surrounding tissues are presented. From an energetic point of view, some particular cases of oncogenesis are considered. It is concluded that increased resistance to neoplasms with controlled consumption of external resources, in particular due to moderate respiration.
Keywords:tumor, non-equilibrium system, glow gas discharge, gas discharge analogy, specific energy input, critical energy release level.
