Immunology of intraocular tumors
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2005The immune surveillance hypothesis was introduced over 30 years ago and proposed that neoplasms express novel antigens that subjected them to immune detection and elimination. In order for immune surveillance to be effective in controlling neoplasms, two requirements must be satisfied: 1) the tumor must arise in a body site that permits the induction ...

Immunology of Experimental Tumors
Annual Review of Medicine, 1964One of the most important advances in cancer biology of recent years is the conclusive demonstration that a variety of experimental tumors possess antigenicity capable of eliciting specific immune responses. This review will be restricted largely to those experimental systems in which the antigenic differences between tumor and host have been most ...

Immunologic Nonresponsiveness to Tumors
Critical Reviews™ in Oncogenesis, 1998Over the past several years it has become clear that malignant cells express a variety of tumor associated antigens, and T cells reactive to these antigens have been identified. However, the T cells are not effective in rejecting tumors. In general, T cells that are not tolerized within the thymus have the potential to be rendered tolerant by one of ...

The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1990
Whereas abundant literature is available on mechanisms imposed by neoplastic diseases on the immune system, only few details are known about immunological parameters of autoreactive mechanisms directed against the heart. This report will focus on cardiac autoreactivity in patients with endomyocardial types of cardiac tumors (e.g.

Tumor immunology and immunotherapy
The Laryngoscope, 1977AbstractTumor cells contain a variety of antigens, including tumor associated antigens. The tumor associated antigens can be clinically useful as marker's for detection of cancer and some may also mediate host resistance against tumor growth. Much emphasis has been placed on the detection of circulating tumor associated markers, with radioimmunoassays ...

Klinische Wochenschrift, 1982
This article deals with the experimental problems of tumor immunology. It stresses that animal tumors should in their pathogenesis closely reflect the pathogenesis of human cancer because otherwise they may be useless and cloud the issues instead of making useful contributions.

Brain tumors of different origin, but notably malignant gliomas, are characterized by their immunosuppressive properties which allow them to escape the host's immune surveillance. The activating immune cell ligands that are expressed by tumor cells, together with potentially immunogenic antigens, are overridden by numerous immune inhibitory signals ...

Tumor Immunology and Interferon
Southern Medical Journal, 1978Host defense mechanisms against cancer depend on an intact cellular immunity system. Immunosurveillance depends on thymus lymphocytes which, when sensitized, form lymphokines. One of the important lymphokines produced by T-lymphocytes is called interferon, well known for its antiviral effects.

Complement And Tumor Immunology
1971Publisher Summary This chapter provides an overview of the theoretical considerations and practical applications of complement research to tumor immunology in each of five projects—namely, (1) the immunological cell receptors, (2) immune adherence, (3) C1 fixation and transfer test, (4) complement fixation test, and (5) immune cytotoxicity test ...
