Summary

This work is devoted to the study of the role of the antibodies in induction of immunity to Brown-Pearce carcinoma. Serum or splenic tissue and lymph node tissue, obtained from rabbits immune to the tumor was introduced to rabbits. The subsequent inoculation of the tumor tissue to experimental animals was connected in a number of cases with complete or partial inhibition of the tumor growth. These data demonstrate the significance of the antibodies in the mechanism of antitumor protection of the organism.
