Abstract
Fresh thymus tissue from 31 infants and from three adults was examined by indirect immunofluorescenc‐e using antisera from active cases of pemphigus vulgaris. This sera contained specific antibodies for squamous epithelial intercellular substance. Fluorescent staining was seen in Hassall's corpuscles in all cases. This finding is immunological support confirming the morphologic, ultrastructural and histochemical evidence that these bodies are squamous epithelial in nature.
