説明

Lowered peripheral lymphocyte count, reduced serum antibody response and partially reduced protection against infection with virulent strain of Salmonella enteritidis after immunization with live vaccine of S. enteritidis were observed in mice thymectomized at birth. However, the cellular resistance, which was observed in vitro in peritoneal macrophages from immunized animals, was not found to be reduced by neonatal thymectomy of mice. From these facts, the immunological dependence of cellular immunity on thymus in neonatal life was discussed.
