The effect of heterologous antimacrophage serum (AMS) and normal rabbit serum (NRS) on the immune reaction against Rous virus-induced sarcoma (RSL) was studied in rats. The growth of RSL sarcoma transplanted against the H-1 barrier in AMS-treated rats was more progressive than in the untreated or NRS-treated control group. On the other hand, the growth of RSL sarcoma was significantly suppressed in syngeneic AMS- or NRS-treated recipients compared to the untreated control rats.
