T-lymphocytes in venous blood and lymph from the thoracic duct and right lymphatic duct of normal dogs.
The WBC and per cent polymorphonuclear cells in blood increased significantly during the approximately 3 hours of the experiments. The number of lymphocytes did not change significantly. Corresponding cellular components in RD and TD lymph were not significantly different. The per cent of T-rosettes in FVB was more than three times that in RD and TD lymph (33/10). T-rosettes were predominantly formed by medium lymphocytes (68-82%) in both blood and lymph.
