CRYOTHERAPY OF METASTATIC B 16 MELANOMA EFFECT ON IMMUNOGENIC POTENTIAL.

Author(s) : BELLANGEON M.

Summary

A SIGNIFICANT INHIBITION OF B 16 MELANOMA GROWTH AND PROLONGED SURVIVAL OF MICE IMMUNIZED WITH CRYOLYSAT AT 10 MW B 16 MELANOMA CELLS, HAVE BEEN OBTAINED IN IMMUNOPROPHYLACTIC ASSAYS. THESE RESULTS SHOW THAT FREEZING MAINTAINS TUMOUR REJECTION ACTIVITY OF THE TUMOUR ANTIGEN. IMMUNIZATION WITH FROZEN CELLS OR THEIR CRUDE BUTANOL EXTRACT INDUCE ONLY AN INHIBITION OF TUMOUR GROWTH WITHOUT A PROLONGATION OF SURVIVAL.
