Abstract

Cells from the spleen, lymph node, peripheral blood and peritoneal exudate of mice treated with C. parvum were tested for their ability to inhibit tumour growth in vitro. The peritoneal exudate cells from C. parvum treated mice were extremely effective in inhibiting tumour growth whereas the spleen and peripheral blood cells were only moderately so. In contrast, the lymph node cells caused only a modest inhibition of tumour growth at a very high effector to target cell ratio. Spleen cells from normal mice also exerted a moderate anti-tumour effect.
