The Effect of BCG on Thoracic Duct Lymphocytes

Abstract

Adoptive immunotherapy is becoming increasingly more important in the management of advanced malignancies. This report describes the results of immunomodulation therapy with BCG in the Dunning tumor. In addition it describes new techniques in the harvesting of lymphocytes. Thoracic duct lymphocytes from 34 rats were evaluated for the effect of the presence of the Dunning R-3327 AT-3 tumor as well as for the response to bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG). Both tumor and BCG resulted in significant changes in the helper/suppressor T cell ratios.
