  • Title: Cross-reacting tumor associated transplantation antigen on primary 3-methylcholanthrene-induced BALB/c sarcomas.
    Author: Coggin JH.
    Journal: Mol Biother; 1989; 1(4):223-8. PubMed ID: 2818874.
    Abstract:
    Immunization of adult, syngeneic BALB/c mice with irradiated, primary MCA-induced sarcomas conferred reproducible, nonisologous TATA-associated cross-protection against challenge with other primary MCA sarcomas or in vitro passaged MCA sarcoma cells. Isologous, individually specific TSTA-associated protection was also detected. Irradiated, normal BALB/c spleen or muscle tissues were not similarly protective. Pronounced cross-protection was best detected with secondary cultured, in vitro adapted sarcoma challenge inoculum, which could be accurately standardized. These findings paralleled the good cross-protection reported previously with long-term cultured MCA-induced sarcoma cell lines. OFA was expressed as a TATA on all syngeneic, primary MCA-induced sarcomas tested by syngeneic adoptive transfer experiments and on MuLv-free MCA-induced, syngeneic Meth A sarcoma cells.
