Abstract
Tumor implants grew better in radiated or in newborn nu/nu mice than in adult nu/nu controls when, and only when, the tumors were demonstrably immunogenic in normal mice. This result suggests primary immunity. No evidence of immunological memory was found by immunization-challenge type experiments in the nude mice.Keywords
