After antigenic stimulation (intraperitoneal administration of 6% emulsion of sheep erythrocytes) interaction of macrophages and lymphoid cells has been studied in non-inbred mice spleen, lymph nodes, lungs and skin. Histological, morphometrical and radiographic techniques demonstrate that dermal macrophages possess the least reactivity. In 15 days of the experiment activation of the macrophagial link of the spleen and lymph node coinsides with the most intensive transformation of lymphoid elements into the antibody-producing plasma cells. In the lung the phenomena described are observed on the 9th day of the experiment.
