Abstract:
Expression of Fc and C3 receptors was studied in the rosette tests on isolated peritoneal macrophages of control and melanoma-bearing hamsters. In hamsters with transplanted melanomas an increase of the percentage of macrophages with Fc and C3 receptor expression was observed. The increase was prominent among macrophages from animals with transplanted amelanotic melanoma, a tumor line with greater malignancy and changed antigenicity and immunogenicity.
