Abstract

In 1913, Downy (cited from [7]) demonstrated that clasmosomes resulting from clasmatosis are carried from lymph nodes to lymph vessels and then enter the blood. Their fine structure has been described in [5]. Clasmosomes are formed in noticeable amounts beginning precisely from the moment of the immune maturation of the lymphoid tissue. Lymphoid organs form clasmosomes more intensely when various processes involving the immune system occur in the body. Clasmatosis is most typical of medium-sized lymphocytes and lymphoplasmocytes [3], with the clasmosomes of the latter responding to antibodies. This suggests that clasmosomes serve as immune receptors [4] detecting foreign elements in the body. Back in the 1930s, Bezredka [1] demonstrated that Brown–Pierce carcinoma could be resorbed after its subcutaneous or intracutaneous inoculation to rabbits, with stable immunity against this tumor being formed CELL BIOLOGY
