An arming factor which collaborates with non‐sensitized lymphoid cells to produce specific killing of tumor cells in vitro appears in the serum within 24‐48 after initiation of a tumor by inoculation of Moloney Sarcoma Virus or a transplant of syngeneic sarcoma cells. Lymph‐node cells taken 1 or 2 days after tumor induction are also specifically cytotoxic in a microcytotoxicity assay. The production of this arming factor and the appearance of cytotoxic lymphoid cells are thus temporally related and are among the early responses to syngeneic sarcomas in BALB/c mice.
