[Correlation between chemical carcinogenesis and immune response].
Methylcholanthrene, in amount sufficient to induce tumors in 100% of treated animals failed to influence primary and secondary phases of antibody synthesis in mice immunized with sheep erythrocytes and human serum albumin. The early immune response in tumor bearing mice was also indistinguischable from that of normal animals, despite the presence of marked splenomegaly in the former group.
