Abstract
The plaque-forming response to sheep red blood cells is suppressed in mice treated with crude saline extracts of normal male mouse submandibular glands. Extracts from adult male mice orchiectomized at 2 weeks of age are ineffective, suggesting that the presence of this suppressive substance in the male mouse submandibular gland is testosterone-dependent.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
