title: Genetic control of tolerance induction to human gamma-globulin in mice.
abstract: Susceptibility to tolerance induction with monomeric human gamma-globulin (HGG) was tested in different inbred strains of mice. The results indicated a differential tolerance susceptibility among the strains and that the basis for the variation is genetic in nature. By using a protocol that permits genetic analysis, F1, F2, and backcross generations of the parental strains SJL/J and C3H/Bi were examined. A multigenic control model by H-2-linked and non-H-2-linked genes showing Mendelian autosomal inheritance is proposed.
