IMMUNOLOGIC TOLERANCE AFTER SPECIFIC IMMUNIZATION
Specific immunologic tolerance to bovine serum albumin (BSA) was induced in approximately one-half of the rabbits that had been primarily immunized and were prepared for a secondary antibody response to BSA. The state of tolerance lasted for several months in the majority of rabbits and was not easily terminated by immunization with human serum albumin followed by BSA.

Special Features of Adaptive Immunity
The primary cell types involved in adaptive immunity are T cells and B cells. Each type has a unique role in defending the body against pathogens. T cells are responsible for cell-mediated immunity. They identify and eliminate infected cells directly,...
