Abstract
The cerebral cortex of young rats aged 30 days born of animals previously neurosensitized with homologous cerebral cortical antigens and of intact animals was investigated. A decrease in the width of the sensomotor area was found compared with the control, mainly on account of the lower layers; the cell bodies of the large neurons were reduced in size in layer V, their cytoplasm was incompletely developed, and the accumulation of basophilic material in the cytoplasm was retarded.
