Tube leukocyte adherence-inhibition response to related and unrelated tumor antigens in mammary tumor-bearing mice. 1983

U Chattopadhyay, and S Guha

Tube leukocyte adherence-inhibition response to syngeneic mammary tumor antigens and alloantigens from Ehrlich ascites carcinoma and fibrosarcoma was studied in spontaneous mammary tumor-bearing C3H/Jax mice. The mice with limited tumor burden responded significantly to the mammary tumor antigen and the Ehrlich ascites carcinoma antigen. The reactivity disappeared with increased tumor load. Oscillatory responses in leukocyte adherence inhibition to the reactive antigens was observed with increasing tumor weight. There was no response to the alloantigen of fibrosarcoma.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007957	Leukocyte Adherence Inhibition Test	Test for cell-mediated antitumor immunity and related serum blocking factors based on the finding that leukocytes from cancer patients, but not from controls, when mixed in vitro with antigenic extracts of tumors of the same histological type, undergo a diminution in their normal adherence to glass surfaces. Sera from tumor-bearing patients block the LAI reaction of their own leukocytes or those of other patients with the same type of tumor.	LAI Test,LAI Tests,Test, LAI,Tests, LAI

D005354	Fibrosarcoma	A sarcoma derived from deep fibrous tissue, characterized by bundles of immature proliferating fibroblasts with variable collagen formation, which tends to invade locally and metastasize by the bloodstream. (Stedman, 25th ed)	Fibrosarcomas
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.
