Abstract: | Both juvenile (14–16 week) and adult (18 month) reject skin allografts from adult more speedily than they reject such grafts from juvenile axolotls. Donor-specific histocompatibility antigen, prepared from splenocytes, is more effective in inhibiting adult host splenocyte migration when the antigen is prepared from spleen cells from adult, rather than from juvenile . The thymus is fully developed in juvenile , suggesting that the delayed kinetics of rejection of juvenile allografts reflects immaturity in the expression of histocompatibility antigens to donor skin cells. |
