  • Title: Immunity to murine sarcoma virus induced tumours. IV. Direct cellular cytolysis of 51Cr labelled target cells in vitro and analysis of blocking factors which modulate cytotoxicity.
    Author: Gorczynski RM, Knight RA.
    Journal: Br J Cancer; 1975 Apr; 31(4):387-404. PubMed ID: 50851.
    Abstract:
    The antigen specific cell mediated cytotoxicity of MSV immune spleen lymphocytes to 51Cr labelled murine lymphoma cells was wholly abolished by pretreatment of the spleen cells with anti-theta antibody and complement. Early during the immune response to MSV the cytotoxic acitivity was inhibited by incubation of immune lymphocytes with "late progressor" or "early regressor" serum. Immune lymphocytes at later times were more refractory to such inhibition by serum blocking factors. Although unfractionated cytotoxic lymphocytes, irrespective of the time after MSV infection at which they were tested, were inhibited by soluble tumour associated antigen (TAA), a subpopulation of cytotoxic T cells was identified which was inhibited neither by antigen nor serum.
