Abstract

Jacobson,1 in the course of studies of radiation biology, found that shielding the spleen of a mouse during otherwise lethal irradiation permitted survival. Subsequently, Lorenz et al.2 found that irradiated mice could be protected by an infusion of spleen or marrow cells. Confirmation that the“irradiation protection” phenomenon was due to reconstitution by donor cells came from the observation of Main and Prehn3 that irradiated mice protected by an infusion of allogeneic marrow subsequently displayed tolerance of a donor skin graft. Their observation was followed shortly by the report of Ford et al.4 that the marrow of such animals had the cytogenetic characteristics of the marrow donor.
