“…inhibition when BCG is mixed with the tumour inoculum) is not T-cell dependent (Moore, Lawrence andNisbet, 1976: Pimm andBaldwin, 1976) and probably results from local mobilization and activation of macrophages, and the same is true of contact inhibition of s.c. tumours by C. parvum (Woodruff and Whitehead, unpublished it is just conceivable that this is true also of the response to local injection of C. parvum after tumour inoculation, despite the fact that in the case of s.c. transplants their response has been found to be highly T-cell-dependent (Scott, 1974;Woodruff and Dunbar, 1975;Woodruff and Warner, 1977). The dramatic response of intracerebral transplants to s.c. injection of C. parvum mixed with irradiated tumour cells would seem to imply, however, that such transplants are subject to inhibition as the result of a specific immunological reaction.…”
