[Interaction of antigen-reactive cells in specific hyposensitization].
The study of the role of T-lymphocytes in specific hyposensitization to tuberculin was carried out. Tie suppressive effect of thymic lymphocytes on the ability of lymph node cells to transfer delayed hypersensitivity was demonstrated in the system of adoptive transfer on 179 CBA mice. In hyposensitization the suppressor activity of thymocytes was found to increase. The authors came to the conclusion that hyposensitization was an active process connected with the increase of the suppressor function of T-lymphocytes.
