neoplasm
• the number of white blood cells in tumor blood vessels is increased and includes monocyte-like and phagocytic cells
|
• Background Sensitivity: after infection with B16-F10 melanoma cells, tumor size is reduced on a 129/C57BL/6 background to 90+/-18mm3 compared to 540+/-83mm3 in wild-type mice
• reduced tumor size is observed following infection with B16-LS9 cells or mouse lymphoma cell line EL4
• however, treatment with captopril or anti-CD8+ antibodies reverts tumor growth to wild-type size
|
immune system
• CD8+ T cell numbers are increased following exposure to two B16-F10-specific epitopes or mouse lymphoma cell line EL4
|
• IL-12 levels are increased following treatment with LPs or LPS and interferon-gamma
• IL-10 levels are decreased following treatment with melanoma cells or LPS
|
hematopoietic system
• CD8+ T cell numbers are increased following exposure to two B16-F10-specific epitopes or mouse lymphoma cell line EL4
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• IL-12 levels are increased following treatment with LPs or LPS and interferon-gamma
• IL-10 levels are decreased following treatment with melanoma cells or LPS
