    Abstract:
    The nature of cells responsible for the genetic resistance of lethally irradiated CBA mice to lymphocytes of (CBA x M523)F1 hybrids was studied. Preirradiation of the hosts was shown to abolish the resistance. The latter was generally recovered by syngeneic thymocytes or splenocytes while embryonic liver and bone marrow cells or splenocytes treated with anti-Thy-I serum plus complement before injection into host were ineffective. It is postulated that some cells with T cell characteristics are responsible for the phenomenon of parental resistance. These cells differ in several respects from T cells that mediate the transplantation immunity and from M cells that control other forms of the genetic resistance.
