The in vivo role of leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 in cytotoxic cell activity against tumors induced by Moloney-murine sarcoma/leukemia retroviral complex

Leukemia. 1992:6 Suppl 3:166S-167S.

Abstract

The in vivo role of LFA-1 molecule in the immune reaction to a murine retrovirus-induced tumor was investigated. Local and systemic treatment with high doses of anti-LFA-1 monoclonal antibody led to tumor progression by blocking CTL interaction with tumor cells without interfering with CTL generation and localization in the tumor mass.
