[Testing of the renal capsule technic in normal immunocompetent mice].
We have examined the possibility of transplanting syngeneic and xenogeneic tumor material below the renal capsule of normal, immunocompetent mice as a chemotherapeutic test model. Whereas the Lewis lung carcinoma in the syngeneic system was appropriated for the 6-day-test, only 56% of spontaneous C3H mammary carcinomas showed an increase in the size of the transplanted material. An individual sensitivity to the cytostatic agents as an expression of biological variability could be detected for primary C3H mammary carcinomas. Both, xenogeneic lines of human origin, established in nude mice, and fresh resection material from the clinic showed on the normal, immunocompetent mouse no time-dependent, reproducible growth of the transplanted material in control animals. However, growth is considered as a precondition for estimating the effect of therapy. The normal, immunocompetent mouse was in our experiments not suitable for application of the renal capsule assay in the 6-day-test as a recipient for xenogeneic transplantation.
