| Descripción: | During the past few years, the function of the thymus gland has been greatly clarified. It is now known to play an important role in the development of immunological competence. However, less is known about that role, if any, the thymus plays in the maintenance of immune function during adult life. Because of the bearing of immune function on tissue transplantation and because of the possible role of the thymus in immune function, this gland may be of importance in a better understanding of organ and tissue rejection. Similarly, modification or removal of the thymus, with or without other treatment, may be of value in modifying the homograft rejection phenomenon. If any rational attempt, to alter homograft rejection by manipulation or extirpation of the thymus, is to be made, a more thorough knowledge of the function of the adult thymus is necessary. |
