  • Title: Studies on rat complement. II. Complement level in experimental tumor in rats.
    Author: Sakamoto M, Nishioka K.
    Journal: Jpn J Exp Med; 1975 Jun; 45(3):191-8. PubMed ID: 170442.
    Abstract:
    In the course of methylcholanthrene induced carcinogenesis in rats, CIA50, C4 and C3 increased as compared with control and correlation of tumor size with increase in CIA50, C4 and C3 was observed. In the course of dimethylaminoazobenzen carcinogenesis of rats, complement level and C3 level decreased but in splenectomized rats fed by dimethylaminoazobenzen showed elevated level of complement system. After Corynebacterium infection, CIA50 and C3 of rats increased. This phenomenon is considered to be one of the essential factors to induce high resistance against tumor inoculation.
