The presence of cells expressing immune-complex receptors in non-lymphoid murine tumors.
In this study we demonstrated that cells lodging in tumors have the capacity to fix antibody or immune complexes in vivo and in vitro. Although some of the fixation is probably by host, at least in one system studied, tumor cells, per se, were found to exhibit immune complex fixation.
