Summary A protinin (Trasylol) is shown to enhance the response of spleen cells from normal and tumour bearing mice to PPD and tumour cells. This enhancement is greater in the tumour-bearing mice.Acknowledgments. We are grateful to Bayer (U.K.) Limited for generous supplies of aprotinin. The PPD was supplied by the Ministry of Agriculture. The work was supported by a grant from the North of England Cancer Research Campaign. 相似文献

When it is tested in vitro, the cytotoxic action of lymphocytes from mice bearing a syngeneic tumour (T2) vary with the age of the graft. At a time when it is very low, the lymphoid cells are cultivated for 3 days and then can be fractionated in two subpopulations on a glass bead column: a cytotoxic "non adherent" group of cells and an "adherent" group that inhibits the activity of the first group when it is added to it. 相似文献

The effect of BALB/c mice pretreatment with tumour cells (a mammary adenocarcinoma, ADK-1t and an IgA secreting plasmocytoma, MOPC-315) adsorbed with poly I:C, poly I and poly C is examined. Only mice pretreated with cells of both tumours adsorbed with poly I:C and poly C proved to be extensively protected against challenge by homologous untreated tumour cells, whereas this was not so in the case of poly I. A possible explanation of this phenomenon is discussed. 相似文献

The mammary gland undergoes major developmental changes during puberty and pregnancy. It is thought that stem cells drive mammary gland development during puberty and are responsible for tissue maintenance as well as the major growth and remodelling that occurs with every pregnancy. The use of sophisticated cell separation procedures has facilitated the prospective isolation of mammary epithelial stem and differentiated cell subpopulations from the mouse mammary gland, while studies of primary human breast cancers have described sub-populations of tumourigenic cells capable of initiating tumour growth in immuno-compromised mice. These potential tumour 'stem cells' constitute an important therapeutic target population with respect to cancer therapy, as these are likely to be the cells which maintain tumour growth. Understanding the origin of these cells, their relationship to breast cancer subtypes, and how and why they differ from normal breast stem cells will lead to a revolution in tumour understanding, treatment and prevention.

Activation of cytotoxic T cells by solid tumours? 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Tumour-specific cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) are among the best-defined biological anticancer weapons. Nevertheless, they often
fail to control tumour growth in vivo. Many reasons for this have been evoked tumours may actively inhibit CTLs, or may protect
them selves from CTL recognition by various means. However, one does not necessarily need to postulate such active immune
evasion mechanisms specifically acquired by tumour cells. In this review we argue that the failure of immune protection is
due to the intrinsic inability of tumours to activate an effective immune response, and that many tumours are similar to normal
issues in this respect. It is striking to see that the majority of the so-called immune escape mechanisms are not specifically
acquired by selected tumour cells, but are common mechanisms shared between solid tumours and normal, healthy tissues. Immune
responses are poor because tumour antigens do not efficiently localize to lymph follicles in lymphoid tissues, and are not
efficiently presented to CTLs in an immunogenic context. The fact that tumours do not induce CTLs but are often susceptible
to lymphocyte-mediated cytotoxicity indicates that more intensified immunization protocols should result in improved clinical
outcome. 相似文献

A model of lymphatic metastasis established by injecting Walker rat carcinoma cells into the rat footpad was used to study the output of tumour cells from the footpad. The lymphatic efferent from the footpad was cannulated in a group of rats with advanced neoplasm; it was shown that the output of tumour cells was continuous over periods up to 90 min and ranged from 10(2)-10(5) cells/min. 相似文献

Summary Glucan, a beta-1, 3 polyglucose, was administered to mice either 1 h before or 1 h after a 650 rad exposure to cobalt-60 radiation. Compared to radiation controls, glucan-treated mice consistantly exhibited a more rapid recovery of pluripotent stem cells and committed granulocyte, macrophage, and erythroid progenitor cells. This may partially explain the mechanism by which glucan also enhances survival in otherwise lethally irradiated mice. 相似文献

Metastatic axillary lymph nodes following the injection of EMT6 tumour cells were observed in athymic nude mice, more often in female animals, and had a rapid growth rate. These metastases did not develop in syngeneic hosts. The latency of their appearance was inversely related to the number of injected cells. 相似文献

Spontaneous fusion between cancer cells and endothelial cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Endothelial cells line the inside of blood and lymphatic vessels, and cancer cells must cross this barrier, first to gain access to the circulation, and, second, to exit and metastasize. How this occurs is incompletely understood. We now demonstrate that human cancer cells are able to fuse with endothelial cells to form hybrid cells displaying proteins and chromosomal markers characteristic of both parent cells. The hybrid cells are viable and capable of undergoing mitosis. Fusions between cancer cells and endothelial cells were shown to occur both in vitro, in co-cultures of human breast cancer cells and endothelial cells, and in vivo, following intravascular dissemination of human breast cancer cells in nude mice. These observations demonstrate a new type of cancer-endothelial cell interaction that may be of fundamental importance to the process of metastasis.Received 10 May 2004; received after revision 21 June 2004; accepted 2 July 2004 相似文献

In irradiated mice engrafted with hemopoietic cells, the thymus is repopulated more rapidly by bone marrow-derived than by spleen-derived cells. Admixing thymic cells with the restorative suspension stimulates the thymic repopulation by spleen-derived cells whereas it has no effect on the repopulation by bone marrow-derived cells. 相似文献

Mast cells in the skin of normal,hairless and athymic mice 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Summary The skin of congenitally athymicnu/nu mice is rich in mast cells which stain metachromatically, contain histamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine, and participate in the PCA reaction. Mast cells of athymic mice have thus the attributes of normal mast cells.This work was supported by grants from the Swiss National Science Foundation (No. 3.516.71 and 3.234.74) and the Fritz Hoffmann-La-Roche-Stiftung.The skilful technical assistance of MissR. Keist is gratefully acknowledged. 相似文献

Mouse embryo cells, transformed in vitro by the transfer of chromosomes from HeLa human tumour cells, express a surface antigen (s) also found on HeLa cells. This antigen(s), which has been detected both by indirect immunofluoresence and by a 125I-protein A binding assay, is not an antigen(s) shared by both Human and Mouse cells. 相似文献

Summary The ability of collagenase to disaggregate a solid metastasizing lymphosarcoma has been shown to considerably increase with reducing environmental pH. It is suggested that this effect may be operating in vivo to release cells from a primary tumour. 相似文献
