Abstract

Old, Boyse and Stockert reported the presence of a common iso-antigen (LT) in certain leukaemias of two strains of mice, and in thymus of only one of these strains and one unrelated strain1. Later, the LT iso-antigen was found in normal thymus of eight out of twenty-four strains2. The LT iso-antigen was not detected in the normal tissues examined other than thymus1,2.
