Abstract
It is still not known to what extent the cancer patients’ lymphocytes may recognize autochthonous neoplastic cells as foreign. Increasing clinical evidence indicates that the growth of neoplastic cells may be subject to limitation by host resistance (l). Among factors which may limit tumor growth immunological factors may be relevant. In experimental tumor systems tumor-specific transplantation antigens, capable of inducing immunological rejection reactions are now well documented (2,3,4).
