Leukemoid reaction induced by different transplantable tumors in three inbred mouse strains. 1982

R Castillo, and J W Díaz, and A Veloso, and J Gavilondo

We have studied the induction of a granulocyte-associated leukocytosis (leukemoid reaction) in C3HA, C57B1/6, and DBA/2 mice by a number of transplantable tumors of different origin. Leukemia L1210, Hepatoma 22, a transplantable mammary carcinoma of spontaneous C3HA origin, and a L929 culture fibroblasts-derived rhabdomyosarcoma, all induced a leukemoid reaction in their specific mouse strain. Melanoma B16 and Lewis lung carcinoma gave no reaction; Adenocarcinoma 755 and Harding-Passey melanoma evoked a leukocytosis but not due to an increase in neutrophils. Some extratumoral factors can influence the hematological response; the intensity of final leukemoid reaction was higher in female mice than in males bearing the same tumor. On the other hand, Ehrlich ascites tumor transplanted in all three inbred mouse strains rendered different levels of leukemoid reaction; response was higher in DBA/2, intermediate in C3HA and lower in C57B1/6.

D008545 Melanoma A malignant neoplasm derived from cells that are capable of forming melanin, which may occur in the skin of any part of the body, in the eye, or, rarely, in the mucous membranes of the genitalia, anus, oral cavity, or other sites. It occurs mostly in adults and may originate de novo or from a pigmented nevus or malignant lentigo. Melanomas frequently metastasize widely, and the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and brain are likely to be involved. The incidence of malignant skin melanomas is rising rapidly in all parts of the world.
