| Abstract: | An immunofluorescent study of hemopoietic organs in xenogenic (mouse-rat) radiation chimaeras has been carried out by means of specific antiserum against hemopoietic cells of the rat bone marrow. The presence of donor cells was tested at different times after the transplantation in the bone marrow, spleen, lymph nodes, thymus and liver of radiochimaeras. The transplanted cells were shown to populate all hemopoietic organs of the recipient, first of all tissues of the bone marrow type and, then, lymphoid organs. The donor (bone marrow) origin of the extramedullar foci of hemopoiesis in the liver was established. |
