Studies on antigenicity and immunogenicity of transplantable melanoma in hamster by using migration inhibition test.
The migration of spleen cells taken from hamster bearing transplantable melanoma was measured in the presence of melanoma cells isolated from appropriate tumors. The inhibition of macrophage migration in the presence of both amelanotic and melanotic tumor cells was observed, however higher response in the case of amelanotic tumor cells was detected.
