Lorsqu'un animal a été préalablement immunisé contre une tumeur donnée (par transplantation d'une tumeur puis résection), la transplantation de cette même tumeur aboutit à un rejet du greffon tumoral. C'est ce type d'expériences qui a permis de définir un grand nombre d'antigènes de transplantation tumeur spécifique (TSTA = tumor specific transplantation antigen). 1, record 1, French, - antig%C3%A8ne%20de%20transplantation%20tumeur%20sp%C3%A9cifique

Antigen present on a tumour cell surface that elicits an immune response, in a syngeneic animal or the tumor-bearing animal itself which leads to the rejection of the tumor but has no effect on the normal cells from which the tumour arose. 1, record 2, English, - tumor%20specific%20transplantation%20antigen

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Antigènes de tumeurs induites par les virus oncogènes. [...] On distingue [...] les antigènes TSTA (Tumor Specific Transplantation Antigens), antigènes membranaires pouvant être à l'origine d'une IMC et donc d'un rejet (tout au moins en expérimentation animale). Ces antigènes cellulaires dépendent de la présence du virus, mais ne sont pas présents sur le virus lui-même [...] 3, record 2, French, - antig%C3%A8ne%20TSTA
