Comparative studies of subcutaneous and intradermal leukemic tumors in guinea pigs.

چکیده
Small doses of L2C leukemic cell suspensions inoculated intradermally into strain 2 and F1 hybrid guinea pigs induced leukemic tumors that regressed spontaneously in about 50% of animals, whereas s.c. inoculation induced uniformly generalized leukemia. Because of the behavioral differences between the s.c. and intradermal tumors, it appeared of interest to examine their comparative morphology by light and electron microscopy. Both s.c. and actively growing intradermal tumors are made up of identical nonphagocytic histiocytes and contain virus particles. They differ in the number of proliferating cells, which is larger in the s.c. tumors. Cell necrosis is a conspicuous feature of the regressing intradermal tumors and is manifested by large numbers of macrophages with engulfed lysed cells or cell fragments. The virus particles disappear before the tumors regress.

متن کاملAttempt to immunize guinea pigs against leukemia by skin scarification with leukemic cell suspensions.
An attempt was made to immunize "strain 2" guinea pigs by superficial skin scarification with small doses of L2C leukemic cell suspensions. Among 203 scarified guinea pigs, 32 developed progressively growing leukemic tumors at the site of skin scarification. In 35 guinea pigs small intradermal tumors that appeared at the site of scarification regressed spontaneously; however, 15 guinea pigs in ...
متن کاملA comparison of virulence of intraperitoneal infection of Burkholderia mallei strains in guinea-pigs
Male guinea pigs show high susceptibility to Burkholderia mallei and have been used as animal models in glanders studies. The purpose of our study was to elucidate glanders comparative pathogenesis in guinea pigs. We present here the histological changes and bacterial isolation that develop over time in guinea pigs inoculated intraperitoneally (IP) with two strain of B. mallei. Ten male guinea ...
متن کاملEvaluation the Efficacy of Anthrax Vaccine against Challenge with a Highly Virulent Strain of Bacillus anthracis Isolated from Soil in Sheep, Goats and Guinea Pigs in Iran
Protection of animals immunized against Bacillus anthracis is usually demonstrated by challenging with an appropriate dose of a strain of Bacillus anthracis that is lethal to unvaccinated animals inoculated at the same time. In this study the protective efficacy in anthrax vaccine (34F2 sterne strain spore) was evaluated in sheep, goats and guinea pigs challenged with subcutaneous inoculation...
