Effects of cholera toxin on lymphoid system. I. Reduction of thymus cells after cholera toxin injection
Abstract:
One microgram of cholera toxin was injected intravenously into DDD and AKR mice and its effects on lymphoid tissues were examined at various intervals. A remarkable reduction of thymus cells were revealed from days 1 to 11 and from days 1 to 7 in DDD and AKR mice, respectively. Only slight effects were detected on the numbers of spleen cells and peripheral blood leukocytes in both strains throughout the observation period.
