Age of Donor and Host in Sex Histo-Incompatibility to Skin Isografts.

Abstract

Summary 1) Age, as a factor in immunological maturity of both donor and recipient, is presented as a possible controlling factor in acceptance or rejection of skin isotransplants in the inbred A strain of mice. 2) The age factor does not play a significant role in skin isotransplants of the inbred C₅₇Bl (subline 1) strain. 3) A sex histo-incompatibility exists in inbred mice of the NH and Ce strains.
