title: The interaction between macrophages and suppressor cells in immunological maturation in mice.
abstract: The immunological immaturity at birth characteristic of species such as the mouse has no certain explanation. Here Bertie Argyris suggests that in mice it is a consequence of high suppressor-cell activity and an absence of macrophage activity. Gradual alterations in the balance of these activities account for the gradual emergence of immunocompetence.
