SummaryExperimental mouse plasma cell tumor, X5563, produces plasma gamma globulin alterations. Temporary disappearance of abnormal globulin occurs following partial removal of neoplasm. Homologous transplantation of tumor has been carried out. Because surviving tumor can be readily identified by changes in plasma proteins without animal sacrifice, it provides a new and useful tool for investigation of tumor immunity.
