Riassunto

L'autore ha studiato la morfologia del sistema linforeticolare e lo stato di reattività immunitaria del topo Snell/Bagg con nanismo ereditario preipofisario. È stata riscontrata una notevole ipoplasia di tutto il sistema linforeticolare ed una severa diminuzione della capacità anticorpopoietica la cui causa viene fatta risalire con ogni probabilità al grave stato di deficit timico congenito. Si prospetta che il topo nano ipofisario sia portatore di una sindrome analoga a quella sperimentalmente indotta mediante timectomia neonatale.
