Abstract
Increased activity of serum DNase I and of splenic inhibitor of DNase I was found during the development of Friend's virus leukemia. Increased activity of inhibitor in the spleen also was discovered after intravenous injection of exogenous DNase I into mice. The possible role of serum DNase I in the development of experimental leukemia is discussed.
