Serum from both normal and T cell-deprived female adult CBA mice shows a background titre of antibody to of about 2–4 log units by a latex agglutination test. Intraperitoneal injection of causes a marked rise in titre which reaches its peak after about a month, and a second injection at that time evokes a further response. Treatment with mercaptoethanol reduces the background titre, and also the titre 1–3 weeks after immunization by 1–2 log units. Subcutaneous injection of on the other hand evokes little or no antibody response. Both the antitumour effect of , and its effect on clearance of colloidal carbon from the blood stream, can occur in the presence of high levels of antibody directed against the organism. Theoretical and possible therapeutic implications of these findings are discussed.
通过乳胶凝集试验,正常和T细胞缺失的成年雌性CBA小鼠的血清显示出针对……的抗体背景滴度约为2 - 4个对数单位。腹腔注射……会导致滴度显著升高,约一个月后达到峰值,此时再次注射会引发进一步反应。用巯基乙醇处理可降低背景滴度,以及免疫后1 - 3周的滴度,降低1 - 2个对数单位。另一方面,皮下注射……几乎不引发或不引发抗体反应。在存在高水平针对该生物体的抗体的情况下,……的抗肿瘤作用及其对胶体碳从血流中清除的作用都可能发生。讨论了这些发现的理论和可能的治疗意义。
