Thymuses and spleens were weighed and morphologically examined by light microscopy. We tested proliferation rates of thymocytes and splenocytes (stimulated by Con A and PHA) and cytotoxic activity of T lymphocytes in SMx, CBA\/H (H-2k) mice by means of the rejection test of allogeneic skin graft (Balb\/c, H-2d) and a microcytotoxicity to allo-antigens of EL-4 tumor cells (H-2b).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results showed a reduction of the weights of the thymus and spleen. However, there was increased functional capacity of the thymocytes - expressed as increased proliferation rates of the stimulated thymocytes, increased microcytotoxicity to allo-antigens of EL-4 tumor cells in vitro, and a reduction of the survival period of skin allografts in vivo. No morphological changes other than a reduction in both the cortex and medulla of the thymus were observed. The subpopulational changes within the T-cell system because of SMx indicate that the morphological atrophy could be just a consequence of SMx.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/00220345890680080801","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,11,28]],"date-time":"2010-11-28T21:14:56Z","timestamp":1290978896000},"page":"1252-1255","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Effects of Submandibularectomy on the Thymus and T-cell System of Mice"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"68","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Letic-Gavrilovic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Biochemistry, Fukuoka Dental College, 700, Ta, Sawara-ku, Fukuoka-shi 814-01, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"\u010c.","family":"Radoji\u010di\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Experimental Medicine, Military Medical Academy, Belgrade, Yugoslavia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"K.","family":"Abe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral Biochemistry, Fukuoka Dental College, 700, Ta, Sawara-ku, Fukuoka-shi 814-01, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1989,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jnci\/55.5.1203"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/28.8.7003006"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"385","DOI":"10.1242\/jeb.28.3.385","volume":"28","author":"Billingham, R.E.","year":"1951","journal-title":"J Exp Biol"},{"key":"atypb4","first-page":"684","volume":"3","author":"Brent, L.","year":"1971","journal-title":"Transplant Proc"},{"key":"atypb5","first-page":"181","volume":"14","author":"Brunner, K.T.","year":"1968","journal-title":"Immunology"},{"key":"atypb6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01990098"},{"key":"atypb7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0003-9969(75)90214-9"},{"key":"atypb8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"402","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1399-0039.1973.tb00510.x","volume":"3","author":"Dubois, M.G.","year":"1973","journal-title":"Tissue Antigens"},{"key":"atypb9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0165-2478(80)90047-4"},{"key":"atypb10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0165-2478(80)90060-7"},{"key":"atypb11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01960653"},{"key":"atypb12","first-page":"869","volume":"37","author":"Hiramatsu, M.","year":"1979","journal-title":"Immunology"},{"key":"atypb13","unstructured":"Hoffman, H. and Burnett, E.
