Mechanism of Corynebacterium Parvum anti-tumour activity. II. Protective effect in T-cell-deprived mice
Abstract:
The natural resistance to syngeneic mammary carcinoma was reduced by thymectomy alone in adult C3H mice or in mice thymectomized, lethally irradiated and restored with bone-marrow cells (Tx RB). The protective effect of C. parvum was not modified by adult thymectomy but it was reduced in Tx RB mice. The injection of thymic cells to Tx RB mice or the elimination of T cell precursors in bone-marrow cells injected in Tx RB mice did not increase the protective effect of C. parvum. These results were compatible with the hypothesis that T cells do not intervene in the mechanism of C. parvum protective effect.

Cytotoxic T Cells-mediated Immune Response
Immunological surveillance is the ability of immune cells to monitor and eliminate infected cells with intracellular pathogens, neoplastically transformed cells, and cells with non-self antigens. Cytotoxic T cells and NK...
B Cell Activation and Differentiation
When naive B cells encounter a specific antigen that can bind to the B cell receptor (BCR) on their surface, they undergo sensitization to respond to the antigen's presence. Sensitization begins with...

Phagocytes
Phagocytes are the frontline soldiers of the immune system. They include neutrophils and macrophages. Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cell and are quickly mobilized to the site of infection. Macrophages are larger cells that patrol...

NK Cells
NK cells are a crucial part of our innate immune system, acting as the first line of defense against viral infections. These cells can recognize and kill infected cells without prior exposure to the virus, effectively slowing down the spread of infection. Additionally, NK cells produce proinflammatory...
