Fig. 3From: Vaccination with inhibin-α provides effective immunotherapy against testicular stromal cell tumors Passive transfer of tumor immunity. a Transfer of purified rmInα primed CD4+ T cells into naïve BALB/c recipient male mice provided highly significant protection against the growth of subsequently inoculated I-10 TSC tumors and (b) this protection resulted in a highly significant increase in overall survival compared to recipients of ovalbumin primed CD4+ T cells. c Transfer of rmInα primed CD8+ T cells failed to provide protection against the growth of I-10 tumors and (d) failed to enhance overall survival. (e) Transfer of rmInα primed B220+ B cells provided significant protection against the growth of I-10 TSC tumors and (f) significantly enhanced overall survival. g Transfer of serum from mice that received rmInα primed CD4+ T cells also provided significant protection against the growth of I-10 TSC tumors and (h) significantly enhanced overall survival.
