Passive Transfer of Allergic Encephalomyelitis: Acceleration by Adrenalectomy.

Abstract

Summary Passive transfer of EAE has been accomplished with spleen as well as lymph node cells from actively sensitized donors. Adrenalectomy of recipients accelerated passive transfer of EAE. Adrenalectomy also accelerated active induction of EAE, especially when surgery was performed at least 2 days before injection of the antigen-adjuvant mixture.
