Abstract
Following injection of a relatively small dose of Rauscher virus into BALB/c mice highly sensitive to this virus an increase in the number of B-lymphocytes was found in association with stimulation of synthesis of nonspecific immunoglobulins. After injection of the virus together with Freund's complete adjuvant, normal cells synthesizing antibodies against surface antigen of Rauscher leukemia and leukemic cells with blocking antibodies adsorbed on their surface were present simultaneously in the spleen of the mice in the early stages of development of the disease.
