Complement-fixation-inhibition as a test for antibodies in cats and humans to C-type RNA tumor virus antigen.

The complement-fixation-inhibition (CFI) test was evaluated as a means of detecting humoral antibodies in cat sera and in human sera to mammalian C-type RNA virus interspecies antigen(s). CFI antibody titers of greater than or equal 1:2 were detected in sera from all tumor bearing (23) and normal cats (23), however, sera from most germ free cats were negative. When the same cat sera were tested for blocking antibody by the paired radioiodine labeled antibody technique the correlation between the radioimmune assay and CFI tests was 85%. Sera from 378 cancer patients and 193 normal people were tested for antibodies to the mammalian oncornavirus interspecies-specific antigen in the CFI test. This test used a rabbit antiserum prepared toward a purified feline leukemia virus (FeLV) interspecies antigen. Disrupted Rauscher murine leukemia virus (RLV) was used as source of interspecies antigen in the CFI test. A significantly (P=0.01) higher number of reactions occurred with sera from patients with lymphosarcoma (70.4%), osteosarcoma (41.0%), reticulum cell sarcoma (56.7%), and rhabdomyosarcoma (31.8%) as opposed to sera from normal individuals (6.2%). Of 51 sera from patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia 23.5% (P=0.05) were reactive. Of the sera from 88 breast cancer patients 22.7% reacted, as opposed to 7.8% of 116 normal females and 13.9% of 43 patients with benign breast disease. CFI antibody titers were shown to be dependent on RLV antigen concentration. Absorption with human A and B red blood cell (RBC) and Forssman antigen did not reduce the CFI titers in human sera whereas absorption with RLV reduced them significantly. By indirect radioimmunoelectrophoresis the antibody in selected human sera was shown to be an IgG.

[An experimental study of the antitumor properties of olipifat].

Olipiphat is an original lignin-based mix developed by special technology. It showed antitumor action against carcinoma of Ehrlich, breast adenocarcinoma Ca 755, melanoma B 16, lung carcinoma of Lewis, lymphosarcoma of Pliss, Walker's carcinoma, sarcoma 45 (tumor growth inhibition by 83-92%, increase in survival by 42-54%) and spontaneous murine tumors (the total of 9 pathologies). The drug was administered by 3-5 injections at 2-3 day intervals. No immediate cytotoxic or cytostatic effects were registered.

[An experimental analysis of the interrelation of the kinetics of spontaneous blood serum chemiluminescence and of the kinetics of the tumor process].

On the material of 5 strains of transplanted rat tumours (sarcoma 45, carcinoma Guérin, carcinosarcoma Walker, lymphosarcoma Pliss, erythromyelosis Shvets) and also mice tumours induced by Moloney and Rauscher viruses and on the models of chemical carcinogenesis of rats: lung (intratracheal injection of 3,4-benz(a)pyrene), breast (DMBA) and liver DENA) was shown that tumorous processes of various origin are accompanied by either elevation or inhibition of blood serum spontaneous chemiluminescence (SChL). In all investigated cases the extreme points of SChL curve coincide with the moment of change of tumour growth kinetics.

Malignant tumors of the intestine: a review of 37 cases.

Malignant tumors of the small bowel are rare but carry a grave prognosis. Thirty-seven cases from the Tumor Registries of Brooke Army Medical Center. Fort Sam Houston, Texas, and Fitzsimons Army Medical Center, Denver, Colorado, were retrospectively studied. Twenty-nine males and eight females ranging from five to 86 years were included in the combined series. Thirteen carcinoid tumors, eight adenocarcinomas, seven lymphosarcomas, five leiomyosarcomas, two reticulum cell sarcomas, one liposarcoma, and one mesenchymal cell sarcoma were found. Symptoms included intermittent crampy abdominal pain, intestinal obstruction, intestinal bleeding with anemia, and weight loss. The diagnosis was made on the basis of the clinical picture in addition to physical findings and pertinent x-ray contrast studies. The overall survival rate was 25%. The treatment of choice is surgical extirpation of the tumor whenever possible followed by appropriate adjunctive modalities.
