title: Cation-induced immunosuppression: the effect of lithium or Arthus reactivity, delayed hypersensitivity and antibody production in the rat.
abstract: Arthus reactivity and delayed skin sensitivity to bovine serum albumin (BSA), and anti-BSA antibody production were markedly impaired in female Wistar rats repeatedly injected with lithium chloride.
