Résumé du livre
Thymectomized and sham-thymectomized adult LAF1 and CBA mice received lethal irradiation and were protected with syngeneic bone marrow. Thirty days after irradiation the survivors were grafted with allogeneic and xenogeneic (rat) skin. The thymectomized mice rejected their rat grafts only slightly later than did the mice in the sham thymectomy group; inontrast, allogenic grafts survived significantly longer on the thymecto mized mice than they did on the mice in the control group.
