    Abstract:
    In the applied parental F1 hybrid system, the GvH character of the regional lymph node reaction was checked against syngeneic and the absolute control systems. It was found that a cortical B-cell zone of the recipients did not participate in the acute phase of the GvH reaction. Cytologically, the GvH response consisted in a significant increase in large pyroninophilic cells, histologically - in a cellular proliferation and pyroninophilia, as well as in a marked angiogenesis beyond the cortical zone of the lymph node. The injection of Con A into the F1 hybrid mice, 24 hours before the administration of the parental cells, inhibited the earlier (presumably donor origin) cellular reaction and intensified the later (presumably host origin) response.
