[Effect of transplantation of thymus, bone marrow and spleen cells on the regenerative processes in pathologically changed liver].

In tests on CBAXC57BL mice with experimental hepatitis, induced by carbon tetrachloride, the transplantation of cells from the lymphoid organs of healthy donors intensified the repairing process in the recipient pathologically changed liver. The most pronounced normalization was seen in the liver of the animals given thymocytes which suggests a deficit of these cells in experimental toxic hepatitis and indicates a definite role of the thymus in the repairing processes of the damaged liver.
