Recognition of the Individuality of Tumour Strain by Sensitized Peritoneal Lymphoid Cells

Abstract

Odashima1 and Yoshida2 have demonstrated the biological individuality of more than fifty different strains of rat ascites hepatomata. Even in strains originating from the same animal, there are marked differences in the pattern of growth as well as differences in such cytological characters as chromosome constitution or sensitivity to anti-tumour agents3. Antigenic differences among these strains have not, however, been investigated.
