title: Relationships among differentiated T-cell subpopulations. IV. Preferential induction of delayed footpad reaction to xenografts and its radioresistant nature.
abstract: Immune response in mice to xenogeneic cells was characterized by positive delayed footpad reaction and negative macrophage migration inhibition. Mice immunized with allogeneic cells exhibited negative delayed footpad reaction and positive macrophage migration inhibition. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes were detected only in mice immunized with allogeneic tumour cells. Delayed footpad reaction against xenogeneic cells was radioresistant and the immune lymphocytes responsible for such a reaction were presumed to have some relation to xenograft rejection.
