    Abstract:
    1. Immune RNA (iRNA) was extracted from the spleen of a sheep immunized with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antigens. 2. The transfer of cell-mediated immunity to HIV antigens was accomplished by injecting iRNA into a Cebus monkey, as evaluated in vitro by leukocyte migration inhibition. The in vitro treatment of normal human leukocytes with iRNA also promoted the inhibition of leukocyte migration in the presence of HIV antigens. 3. These findings have important theoretical and potential practical applications in the field of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS).
