✦ Synopsis
Abstract
We have applied the macrophage migration inhibition assay to study cell‐mediated immune responses to antigens of polyoma‐virus‐transformed cells. Macrophages from polyoma‐virus‐immunized mice, but not from control mice, showed significant migration inhibition when exposed to extracts of polyoma‐virus‐induced mouse and rat transformed cells. Extracts of non‐polyoma‐induced tumors had no such effect.
