Experiments for the production of graft-versus-host reaction in adult and infantile mice by means of human immunocompetent cells.
By administering anti-mouse ATS five times to random-bred Swiss albino mice weighing 16-18 and 10-11 g respectively, the authors have tried to produce immunological depression of such a degree which would allow living human leukocytes to cause GVH reaction. On the basis of the results it may be stated that with the serum dosage and manner of treatment applied, the human graft was not able to act against the recipient organism and to produce differences in body weight.
