Mitochondria and microtubules form a cooperating system. Mitochondria transfer protons into cytosol, build a strong static electric field ordering water, transform energy, and liberate non utilized energy. Microtubules generate electromagnetic field, which may have essential biological functions. Dysfunction of mitochondria in cancer cells results in decreased power and diminished coherence of electromagnetic field. Malignant properties of cancer cells may depend on disturbed electromagnetic activity
