Enhancing Effect on Tumour Growth of Humoral Antibodies against Tumour Specific Transplantation Antigens in Tumours induced by Murine Sarcoma Virus (Harvey)

Abstract

TUMOUR specific transplantation antigens (TSTA) have been detected in genetically well defined conditions in all types of experimental tumours1–2. Immunity to TSTA is mediated by immunologically competent cells and can be passively transferred by lymphoid cells from immunized donors3.
