Cellular Sites of Immunologic Unresponsiveness*

RESUMO

The reconstitution of the immune response of lethally irradiated mice to human γ-globulin is dependent on the synergistic action of bone marrow with thymus cells. Immunologic unresponsiveness appears to involve a functional defect at each of these cellular levels, inasmuch as neither bone marrow nor thymus cells from unresponsive donors are capable of demonstrating synergism in combination with their normal counterpart.
