Summary: The growths of many and perhaps all tumors may be stimulated rather than inhibited by a quantitatively low level of immunity. The reason tumors have antigens may be that tumors do not develop in vivo in the absence of at least a minimal immu

There exists a very large literature suggesting that T cells come in a variety of species and that without the action of Tregs tumors would seldom survive inhibition by T cell effectors. We believe that much of the evidence supporting the role of Tre

According to Berenblum’s two-stage hypothesis, the first stage in carcinogenesis is the production of benign premalignant lesions. Between this initiation stage and the formation of a malignant tumor there is often a long lag phase. We propose that

We have previously suggested that the stimulatory effect of a weak immune reaction on tumor growth may be necessary for the growth of incipient tumors. In the present paper, we enlarge upon and extend that idea by collecting evidence in the literatur

Summary In search of whether high extracellular proteolytic activity is a general tumor phenotype, we examined the levels of extracellular fibrinolytic activity due to plasminogen activation in the primary cultures of 10 lines of immunogenic and non-

A highly immunogenic mouse tumor was studied with the use of microcytotoxicity test, performed at lymphoid cell:target tumor cell ratios ranging from 1:1 to 1,000:1 at various times during tumour growth and after tumor excision. Although the tumor wa

Tumor immunology as an accepted discipline is only some 20 years old, although there has been a lively interest in the possibility of conquering cancer by the body's own defense mechanism since the beginning of the century. Unfortunately, many of the

Increasing evidence has shown that probably all malignant mouse cells, even those of spontaneous sporadic cancers, are endowed with tumor-specific antigens. Stimulation of cancer growth, rather than inhibition by the immune reaction, is seemingly the

• A large amount of data suggest that tumors are, to some degree, dependent for their growth on a positive level of immune reaction, a level that is unique for each tumor. Each tumor gradually adjusts its immunogenicity to the level that will, in t

Tumor implants grew better in radiated or in newborn nu/nu mice than in adult nu/nu controls when, and only when, the tumors were demonstrably immunogenic in normal mice. This result suggests primary immunity. No evidence of immunological memory was
