In vivo activity of spleen cells from untreated syngeneic mice against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma. 1979

M Jakóbisiak, and J Kawiak, and M Kawalec, and M Kańtoch, and M Kamiński, and T Rozmysłowicz

Inbred CFW/L1 or BALB/c male mice were injected intraperitoneally with 1 X 10(5) EAC cells. They died in 98.6 or 100%, respectively, within 100 days of observation. Intraperitoneal injection of 6 X 10(7) syngeneic spleen cells from 6--9-week-old CFW/L1 or BALB/c donors 2.5--4 h after tumour inoculation significantly prolonged MST and 16.7 or 23.5% of mice, respectively, survived for 100 days. Smaller amounts of spleen cells, thymus cells, mixed spleen and thymus cells, or spleen cells from older donors did not show this effect. Homogenized spleen cells were also inactive. Antitumour activity of spleen cells was still evident when they were isolated from irradiated (2 000R) donors or were given 24 h after tumour inoculation. Spleen cells used for in vivo studies showed spontaneous cytotoxic activity in vitro against EAC cells in the 51Cr-release cell-mediated cytotoxicity test. The possible participation of NK cells in the observed in vivo antitumour activity of normal spleen cells is discussed.

D002286 Carcinoma, Ehrlich Tumor A transplantable, poorly differentiated malignant tumor which appeared originally as a spontaneous breast carcinoma in a mouse. It grows in both solid and ascitic forms. Ehrlich Ascites Tumor,Ascites Tumor, Ehrlich,Ehrlich Tumor Carcinoma,Tumor, Ehrlich Ascites
D003602 Cytotoxicity, Immunologic The phenomenon of target cell destruction by immunologically active effector cells. It may be brought about directly by sensitized T-lymphocytes or by lymphoid or myeloid "killer" cells, or it may be mediated by cytotoxic antibody, cytotoxic factor released by lymphoid cells, or complement.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013950 Thymus Gland A single, unpaired primary lymphoid organ situated in the MEDIASTINUM, extending superiorly into the neck to the lower edge of the THYROID GLAND and inferiorly to the fourth costal cartilage. It is necessary for normal development of immunologic function early in life. By puberty, it begins to involute and much of the tissue is replaced by fat.
