Abstract: يعد السرطان واحدا من المخاطر الاساسية التي تهدد حياة الانسان في مختلف بلدان العالم، لان هذا المرض لا يقف عند عضو معين فهو ينتشر الى كثير من اعضاء الجسم الاخرى ليفتك بها، ومن هذا انطلقت الدراسة الحالية التي اجـريت للفترة من تشرين الاول / 2012 م ولغاية اب | The Cancer is one of highly risk factors that threats the human life world wide, because the disease has metastatic property from primary to secondary sites. This study was carried out during the period extending between October 2012 and August 2013, in laboratories of Faculty of Veterinary Medicine & Faculty of Education for girls in University of Kufa. It is aimed to follow up the changes in volume of growing tumor in female albino mice which were injected with cells of murine mammary adenocarcinoma.The histological changes, immunohistochemical examination investigate the distribution of CD8+ T lymphocytes were also studied.The changes of IgG and IgM titers in serum were also investigated. The study included use of 40 female albino mice at age 6 - 8 weeks, 25g weight average.All mice were injected by cells of murine mammary adenocarcinoman (AM3) in subcutaneous of femoro - dorsal region, and ascending to cervical region. The tumor was successfully implanted into 28 mice.These mice divided into four groups, each contains seven tumor - bearing mice.The animals of the first group subjected to the investigations after 48 hrs from implantation , while those of 2nd, 3rd & 4th groups after 10, 20, 30 days respectively. Seven healthy mice were considered as control group to comparison of immunological tests. Tumor volume & relative tumor volume were measured in different experimental groups. Histological section were prepared by routine histological techniques that including the steps of dehydration, clearing, infiltration, embedding, cutting & staining by hematoxylin and eosin stains, then microscopical examination had been done by optic microscop. The results indicated there was significant increase in tumor volume and relative volume with advancing of tumor age in animals of 2nd, 3rd & 4th groups where compared with first group. The gross examination of the animals of different groups showed that the tumor grew as irregular projection with loss of hair and erosion of overlying skin with milky discharge. The post - mortem examination revealed that the tumor mass was divided into small lobules with various coloures and the tumor mass surrounded by fibrous tissue which increase in thickness as the tumor increased in the age. Extensive areas of necrosis were noticed in the centers of the tumor masses. The microscopic examination of tumor masses in the first group raveled there were sub cataneous small aggregation of tumor cells at the implantation region as well as dispersion of the implantated tumor cells. The inflammatory cells, especially neutrophils were infiltrated. In the second group, the tumor masses showed lobulation by fibrous septa with proliferation of new blood vessels with congestion of them. Infiltaration of inflammatory cells, particularly the lymphocytes. The tumor cells arranged as ribbons and acini, characterized by hyperchromacia pleomorphism, high N/C ratio as well as appearance of mitotic figures. The histological features of the third group revealed increase of amount of fibrous tissue extensive necrotic areas and loss of architecture.These appeared in the fourth group in addition to the presence of cellular debris with dead inflammatory cells. The immunohistochemical study showed no CD8+ T cells were infiltrated in the mass of first group but the little infiltration of these cells was show in the second group. The highest infiltration of the CD8+ T cells was appeared in the third group. while the little cells were discharged in the fourth group. The results of the single radial immunodiffussion assay showed that the implantation with mammary adenocarcinoma had significant effect in increasing the titer of IgM after (48) hours and (30) days from implantation of tumor compared to control group, while the titer is not significant after (10) and (20) days from implantation of the tumor compared to control group. Also the results revealed a significant decrease in the titer of IgG after (48) hours and (30) days from implantation of the tumor, while were no significant increase in the titer of immunoglobulin after (10) and (20) days from implantation of the tumor, compared to the control group. From all the above, We concluded that there was variable histological changes as the age of tumor advanced these changes were characterized by increase of amount of tumor cells in the first groups and occurrence of necrosis in late groups, as well as increase the fibrous tissue as the tumor age advanced. The infiltrative CD+8 lymphocyt was also variable as change of tumor age. The implantation of tumor in mice groups had marked effect in stimulation of humoral immune response through increase of IgM & IgG titers.
