[About the elimination of thromboagglutinins from anti-lymphocytic serum (author's transl)].
The possible utilization of the effect of immunological tolerance for inhibition of formation of thromboagglutinins was studied, which dependent of the kind of antigen employed for immunization more or less contaminate antilymphocyte sera (ALS) or globulins (ALG). In the sera of pigs weighing 80-90 kg, immunized with human thrombocytes the thromboagglutinin levels in a) animals tolerated in adult age with an i.v. dose of 2.2 X 10(9) thrombocytes though the complete inhibition of thromboagglutinin formation failed even in these conditions. The attempted induction of tolerance in adult animals, similarly as in newborn piglets obtaining a dose of 1 X 10(9) thrombocytes, was of little success. Good results were recorded in animals tolerated in the perinatal period with a dose of 5 X 10(9) thrombocytes though the complete inhibition of thromboagglutinin formation failed even in these conditions. The authors suggest that of all possible methods for thromboagglutinin elimination, for ALS production the above technique, i.e. the induction of tolerance during the perinatal period seems most feasible, both from the viewpoint of effectiveness and thrombocyte consumption as well.
