Summary

It was demonstrated experimentally that the subcutane ous injection of sera (3–9 ml) obtained from healthy cats into recipient rabbits causes moderately marked fluctuations in the red cell count and hemoglobin level and reticulocyte count. At the height of anemias after splenic denervation both the serum and plasma contain an anemic factor which decreases the red cell count and hemoglobin level when injected into other animals and disturbs erythroblast maturation with subsequent inhibition of erythropoiesis. In similar experiments the nonprotein plasma extract causes analogous, although less pronounced changes. The serum in posthemorrhagic anemia possesses hemopoietic activity and causes moderate polyglobulonemia and pronounced reticulocytosis in recipient rabbits.
