Abstract

SYNOPSIS. Different numbers of spleen and lymph node cells of 6‐week and 6–8 month A/J mice, immune to Plasmodium berghei, were transferred into normal 4‐week old mice. Better protection was observed with 2.5 × 10s than with 107 spleen cells, and spleen cells afforded better protection than an equal number of lymph node cells. Further, spleen cells from older mice were more effective than those from young animals. Possible mechanisms of immunity transfer are discussed.
