Abstract

Using the cytotoxic activity of specific isoantisera it was found that free peritoneal macrophages of mouse radiation chimeras are completely replaced by donor-type macrophages about 6 weeks after irradiation and administration of homologous bone marrow. Possible implications regarding the genotype of the fixed reticuloendothelial cells of chimeras are discussed.
