title: Immune complexes in cancer: demonstration of complexes in mice bearing neuroblastomas.
abstract: Immune complexes occurred in a large proportion of mice with syngeneic neuroblastomas. Circulating immune complexes formed in all mice, whereas almost 50% had deposits of host IgG and complement in a granular pattern along the mesangia and basement membranes of the renal glomeruli. The bound IgG was eluted and recovered from the glomeruli and demonstrated immunologic specificity to neuroblastoma cell-surface antigens.
