3-methylcholanthrene and Immunologic Deficiency Syndromes

3-methylcholanthrene has been researched along with Immunologic Deficiency Syndromes in 5 studies

Methylcholanthrene: A carcinogen that is often used in experimental cancer studies.
3-methylcholanthrene : A pentacyclic ortho- and peri-fused polycyclic arene consisting of a dihydrocyclopenta[ij]tetraphene ring system with a methyl substituent at the 3-position.

Immunologic Deficiency Syndromes: Syndromes in which there is a deficiency or defect in the mechanisms of immunity, either cellular or humoral.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Athymic-nude (nu/nu) mice and normal (nu/+) mice showed no differences in either latent period or incidence of local sarcomas or lung adenomas within 120 days after administration of 3-methylcholanthrene at birth."3.65Tumor development after 3-methylcholanthrene in immunologically deficient athymic-nude mice. ( Stutman, O, 1974)
"In a prostate cancer model, aggressive tumors arising in NKG2D-deficient mice expressed higher amounts of NKG2D ligands than did similar tumors in wild-type mice, suggesting an NKG2D-dependent immunoediting of tumors in this model."1.35NKG2D-deficient mice are defective in tumor surveillance in models of spontaneous malignancy.
