IMMUNOLOGICAL ASPERMATOGENESIS IN MAN

Immunological studies on malignant melanomas of man.

In this paper, we have reviewed current problems in tumor immunology with regard to melanoma and report our studies of a small series of patients with melanoma and other malignancies. A humoral response to malignant melanoma has been well established by the immunofluorescence test (1-5). Cross-reacting cytoplasmic antigens were detected as were cross-reacting and individually specific membrane ...

Platelet Sequestration in Man. Ii. Immunological and Clinical Studies.

The mechanisms of platelet destruction and their sites of sequestration in disease states are poorly understood. Although recent studies have emphasized the importance of platelet isoantibodies in certain clinical situations (1-3), little is known of the effects of antibodies on platelets in vivo. In conditions such as idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, there is debate as to whether immune me...

Approaches to the immunological treatment of cancer in man.

Immunological control of virus-associated tumors in man: a perspective.

The purpose of this Symposium has been to review the state of the art in 4 virus-associated tumor systems, i.e., lymphoma, leukemia, breast cancer, and cervical cancer, with the intent ion of identifying those aspects that are most applicable to current clinical problems. Fol lowing each session, the discussion leaders presented an overview of the problems pecul iar to their disease area, which...

Enteric Infections in Man and Animals: Standardization of Immunological Procedures

The protective effect of a combined rotavirus/enterotoxigenic E. coli K99 vac­ cine against naturally occurring neonatal diarrhoea was evaluated in two dairy and two beef herds. Before vaccination, frequency of diarrhoea in these herds was 46% up to 60% with losses of 7% to 20%. After vaccination of pregnant cows and heifers mild diarrhoea occurred in 14% to 20% of their calves, one out of 144 ...
