G A Belokrylov, and V G Morozov, and V Kh Khavinson, and B N Sofronov

The influence of purified acetic acid thymus extract (thymarin) and its three fractions isolated by ion-exchange chromatography upon immune response to SRBC in mice was studied. Each fraction was identified as homogeneous individual material of polypeptide nature. Crude thymus extract and one of its fractions with an approximate molecular weight of 5000 exerted a strong stimulating effect on the thymus-dependent response: formation of IgM- and IgG-antibody producing cells and on the circulating antibody level.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
