Materials and Methods Animals. Mice of the following inbred strains and F1 hybrids were bred in our own animal colony: CBA, A/Sn (A), C57B 1/6 (C57B 1), C57B 1+/bg d, C57B 1 bgJ/bg d (C57B 1 bg/bg), DBA/2 (DBA),(CBA XA) F1, and (AX C57B1) F1. BALB/c, BALB/c nu/nu, BALB/c+/nu, and C57B1 nu/nu mice were purchased from GI. Bomhotg~. rd Ltd., 8860 Ry, Denmark. Randombred Swiss+/nu and nu/nu littermates were a kind gift from Dr. Beppino Giovanella, The Stehlin Foundation for Cancer Research, Houston, TX. Adult thymectomy. Surgical thymectomy was performed on 3-4-wk-old, anesthesized animals. 3 wk later, the thymectomized mice and control litter mates received 650 rad whole-body irradiation and were reconstituted by intravenous injection of 5-15× 106 syngeneic fetal liver cells. Mice treated with adult thymectomy, irradiation, and fetal liver reconstitution (AT X FL) according to this protocol did not give antibody responses (titers< 1/10) after challenge with the thymus-dependent antigen horse erythrocytes, whereas control mice (C× FL) gave titers> 1/80 when tested in a hemolysis assay 3-4 wk after reconstitution (unpublished observation).Tumors. YAC-1 is a Moloney virus induced lymphoma derived from the A/Sn strain. YACACG, YAC-ACK, and YAC-8 are variant sublines of YAC-1, which have been selected for low NK sensitivity by repeated exposures to highly efficient NK cells from CBA XA mice in vitro and in vivo. The procedure and the variant sublines have been described in detail in a recent report (17). RBL-5 is a Rauscher virus-induced C57B1 lymphoma. MPC-11 (mineral oilinduced plasmocytoma), RL-d (radiation-induced lymphoma), and WEHI-164 (methylcholanthrene-induced fibrosarcoma) are all derived from the BALB/c strain. The cell lines were maintained as suspension cultures in F-13 medium supplemented with penicillin, streptomycin, and 10% fetal (FCS) or newborn calf serum (NCS). This medium was also used for preparations of cells as well as in cytotoxicity and competition assays. Preparation of Cells and Cultures. Single-cell suspensions of lymph node or spleen cells were prepared in F-13 NCS. After washing and counting, cells were used either directly in a cytotoxic assay (day 0, fresh spleen cells) or for cultures: 20-30× 106 (usually 25× 106) cells were plated alone or with 6-15× 106 (usually 10× 106) irradiated (2,000 rad) stimulator cells in 50-ml Falcon tissue culture flasks (Falcon Labware, Oxnard, CA). Thus, the final responder/stimulator ratio in MLC varied between 2: 1 and 3: 1, which yielded similar results. Culture medium (RPMI with penicillin-streptomycin, 3× 10-5 M 2-mercaptoethanol, and 10 mM Hepes buffer) supplemented with 10% FCS was added to a final volume of 10 ml, and the cultures were incubated at 37 C, 5% CO2.
