Adoptive Transfer of Allergic Encephalohyelitis by Inoculation of Cells Into Lymph Nodes

Abstract

Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis can be transferred passively by lymph node cells from actively immunized donor rats to immunologically naive syngeneic recipients. In the present work, passive transfer was accomplished by direct inoculation of donor cells into the recipient's lymph node, and this route was more effective than the conventional intravenous or intraperitoneal routes.
