title: Thymic hormones: inducers and.
abstract: The first evidence of the thymus's pivotal role in immune, function was gathered by experiment and clinical observation more than 20 years ago. Nathan Trainin and his colleagues have helped to establish the link between the endocrine mechanism of the thymus gland and its immunological function. Here they describe the chemistry, biochemistry, and biological effects o f hormones isolated from or originating in the thymus(1-3).
