1Mice bearing two week established tumors received approximately 107 adoptively transferred naive P14 T cells. Tumor outgrowth was assessed after 30 days.
2In unilateral challenges, 2C mice received a single challenge of either 106 gp33-Hi cells or 106 gp33-Lo cells. In bilateral challenges, 2C mice received a challenge of 106 gp33-Lo cells on the left flank and a challenge of 106 gp33-Hi cells on the right flank.
3In experiment 2 and 5, CD8-purified P14 T cells were
transferred into 2C x Rag2(-/-) mice indicating that the rejection
of gp33-Hi tumors is not due to endogenous CD4+ T cells or B cells
in the 2C host.
4The averages of each group are from two independent experiments.
5N.D. = Not done. N.A. = Not applicable.
64OH-TAM treatment induced 67.0 ± 0.6% of the cells above background. The average fold increase above the untreated control was 19.7 ± 10.2.
74OH-TAM treatment induced 4.39 ± 2.1% of the cells above background. The average fold increase above the untreated control was 2.2 ± 0.8.
