Abstract
The incidence of growth of s.c. inoculated non-allospecific Lewis-lung carcinoma was different in asplenic luxate siblings than in siblings with a spleen. Splenectomy of those siblings, as well as asplenia, reduced the incidence of tumor growth, particularly in females. The model of the asplenic luxate sibling suggests that cellular mechanisms have a major influence on the defence mechanisms against solid tumors.
