Mice were immunologically paralysed with two protein antigens, and then either thymectomized or sham-operated in adult life. Recovery from paralysis was much impaired by thymectomy, but was not abolished. This result is discussed in relation to the function of the thymus, and to possible mechanisms of recovery from paralysis.
用两种蛋白质抗原使小鼠发生免疫麻痹,然后在成年期对其进行胸腺切除或假手术。胸腺切除严重损害了麻痹的恢复,但并未使其完全消除。结合胸腺的功能以及麻痹恢复的可能机制对这一结果进行了讨论。
